Covered Buttons

[atherleisure]

I haven't really worked on my bathing suit this week, but I did cover buttons for it. Last night I put it on and verified that it does fit so far and figured out where to hem the pants and where to start marking the hem for the skirt. Unfortunately, it's cold up in the game room so I didn't want to hang out up there pressing hems. I also had decided that I need to tack the pleats in place at the waist so they will sit reasonably nicely under the belt without having to try to adjust them all the time. I figured that needed to be done before hemming, but I didn't want to go up and mess with the dummy in the cold game room. I pinned and tacked the front on myself, but I couldn't do the back the same way.

The long and short of it is that there have been baby steps on it, but mostly I've been reading and cross-stitching.

Thank you for the update and congratulations on the process you have made despite the stupid cold.

I'm ready for the warmer weather this week.

All the little bits will help and means they won't need to be done at the end. Progress is progress.

Progress is progress. How true. It's not like I need it next week.
