February OMG 2018

Posted on February 3, 2018 | 11 Comments

I am going to carry over January’s goal to February. In other words, I really do want to get the On Ringo Lake mystery quilt pieced into a flimsy.

If I manage to do that, then I would like to begin sewing on a tunic for myself.

I purchased the Laundry Day Tee pattern (from Love Notions), and some knit fabric. The goal will be to get my paper pattern printed and pieced together (already working on this), and then cut my pieces from the knit fabric.

I have six solid color knit yardage pieces to eventually sew into six tunics.

But I will start with one and learn as I go. A garment maker, I am not.

At least, I hope I can manage to get this much done. Doesn’t seem like much, but it is the way I roll.

I am linking up with Elm Street Quilts for One Monthly Goal (OMG). Click on the link and see what other goals are set for February. I find it inspiring and motivating!

I used to make skorts and jumpers for my daughter when she was little, but I never made many clothing items for myself. You are very brave to be working with a knit fabric. I look forward to seeing those brightly colored tunics.

  I made my daughter’s clothes as well. Surely I can handle a very simple tunic. Right?! 🙂
