As I read everyone’s reflections of the sewing year I notice excellent throughput and similar tales of joy and woe.

Now I want a go!!! Here are my hits, misses, reflections, inspirations and goals!

5 hits

1. The knockoff Elsie dress

2. New Look 6808 FINALLY

3. Little Green UFO

4. Slippy shiny slinky fake cambie

5. I love polka dots 6808

5 misses

1. Twinkle skirt – still not hemmed and mega frumpy

2. Tartan 6808 – cut a big slash in the back bodice when being careless

3. Fish print dress – Something about the fit or the length just isn’t right but I adore the fabric

4. Little Red Lace Dress – Too smart for work but too prim for parties

5. Not-so-sexy Sadie – Already falling apart due to poor jersey sewing skills

Stay tuned for more in part two!
