Ottobre? New projects for the new year

thematerialgirl — Thu, 12/31/2009 - 15:19

I'm determined to ramp up the sewing projects for 2010. I'd love to commit to one project a week but I think I would be setting myself up for failure. With full time work, travelling at weekends to visit family and the occasional weekend of fun, it would just not be possible.

So what's a realistic target? 30?Well that's what this blog is here to record.

So what's project number 1? It's going to be a slinky going out skirt with the pattern from Ottobre.




What's Ottobre? Well it's a new one on me too. It's a magazine with patterns in it - like Burda - but with a bit of Scandinavian flair (it's from Finland but is in English). I read about it on PatternReview.com and you know me, I have to have everything!
