I like owning things that no one else owns and you can't beat the quality when you make things yourself!

My book made it to Germany and then I went a little crazy when they had the Black Friday sale, so I'm more than set. Mind if I join your challenge? We can keep each other honest. lol :) PS: I did finally finish my Sorbetto and posted about it. If you check it out, keep in mind that those are the most unflattering pictures my husband has ever taken of me.

Anything more might be pushing it! <br /><br />I was so pumped for you when you did your dress in under a month. That's so good!!!!<br /><br />LaraG - I have the same problem with rushing! I decided that next year I am going to be patient and do things properly, even make muslins! Patience now will benefit me in the future... I need to tell myself that when I am in a rush :)<br /><br />I'm glad to hear that the patterns are easy to follow.

I am also self taught, but my problem is that I want to finish a project as soon as I start it, so I will work for 8 hours straight (literally) trying to get the thing done! After doing a full day of teaching, this isn't really conducive to success. <br /><br />Love the Colette book BTW. Made the Truffle dress last week, and I'm working on the Meringue skirt this week. They are wonderfully easy patterns to follow :)LaraGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06165353418854217508noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1401460045100208871.post-80034001940837197652011-12-20T15:56:08.717-08:002011-12-20T15:56:08.717-08:00Right on!

I agree, more than one a month sounds crazy to me, maybe as I get better I'll be able to step up my game like some of the other ladies online that I am impressed with but damn...one fully made item a week just blows my mind. I am self taught too and just plain slow. I look forward to following your progress.Sewly a Harpisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05050121729422658386noreply@blogger.com
