I am almost done with my first sewing project that I started in my sewing class. It is a “blouse” as my sewing teacher called it. I would prefer to refer to it as a shirt with buttons on it:) All I have left is to sew the buttonholes and add the buttons and the shirt will be complete. It isn’t probably something I normally would have picked if given a choice of what exactly to sew, although I have to say that it hasn’t turned out too bad. When I have the buttons on and everything I will probably take a picture and post it so everyone can see my first project.

Since I was so close to the end of the first project, I also started a second project. (Can you tell I am kind of procrastinating on the scary buttonhole part of the first project? Buttonholes may look simple, but I will never again take them for granted… even with an automatic buttonhole maker on my sewing machine!) My second project is some scrub tops for work with the cool fabrics that I posted on my blog at an earlier time (see archives). I am starting with a cheap fabric that I bought to try things out on, so that maybe I can even be brave and modify the pattern slightly. It should be interesting to see how that turns out.

Axel and Pounce slept all day long today. I think they are going to be awake all night! It was too cute though to wake them up, since most the day they were laying right next to each other cuddling.
