So it’s been quite a while since I’ve updated this blog. Very bad, I know.
There’s been a lot going on—the only creative thing I’ve been able to partake in is writing. I’ve been writing a lot of poetry and my novel is coming along okay.
The holidays started off in quite a mess; I had a French Oral exam and lots of assignments. I’ve also been given two different posts at my church so having meetings with the departments and sorting things out have also added to the steaks on my plate.
And dressmaking? The sewing machine is collecting dust! But d’you know what? I don’t care anymore—tomorrow I’m buying a shed load of fabric, as many as I can carry. All sorts, all the crap that I’ve always wanted to buy but have been too hesitant—I’m buying it all! I’m going to order a bust from Amazon as well and get back to making my dresses. These designs won’t be made if I just stare and smile at the sewing machine. Something has to be done.
Hold on! I could even start by making little accessories. Like bows, bags and ties and whatnot. Baby steps, Baker!
In a way, I’m glad I started this blog, because it means that people are actually expecting some results. Otherwise I may as well shut this thing down tonight.
I know that with practise and perseverance I can do this, and then I’ll be able to make some money off ’em, sell my stuff at Greenwich Market or even ….
Spitalfields!!
