Google being stupid & more upcoming projects

This week Google kept saying that it was unfamiliar with where I was logging in.  Mind you I've been logging in from the same location for a very long time.  After I would try & fail to log in, I would get an email saying someone was trying to log in to my account.  It was never from where I was actually logging in from.  This also made others not able to view my blog.  Yesterday I could not get in but tried logging in using Google Chrome & got in with no problem.  What is your problem Google?  Anyway I'm in today.  We'll see what tomorrow brings.

Anyway, this weekend I will finish my black & white Loli JSK.  I still need to dye the lace trim, sew the trim on & sew the trim to cover the skirt ruffle seam.  I may also make a bow for the back.  I removed the bottom ruffle from the underskirt & will sew it back on closer to the hem as I need it to be a bit longer.  Then I will call it complete.

After that is done I will begin my Halloween costume.  Thanks to Joann Fabrics coupon scams & bogus policies I could not get the fabric I wanted.  I went to Fabric.com & bought black cotton twill.  I wanted black cotton sateen.  My skirt (that is already complete) is made of black cotton sateen.  I need to make a coat & a bodice.  The bodice will be of fabric I already have.  I haven't decided on what that will be yet.  We'll see what I have in my stash. 

After the Halloween costume is done, I will start my Mary Magdalene replica JSK (or OP depending on how much fabric I have) for the Dickens meet in early November.  After that who knows, I don't have many plans after that.  Perhaps I will pick up some projects that have fallen to the wayside.

Pics to come soon as I will have a sewing marathon this Saturday.

Till then...
