Birthday Fun and sewing again

So I've been on a bit of a sewing hiatus. I have left my fabric, rotary cutter, pattern weights, scissors and cutting board, laying out on my dining table. For 2 months. Thinking that having it there so readily available would move me to quickly cut something out. Trace something. Nah.

The bug came back this weekend. I cut out a few pairs of undies for me, some tank tops and 1 knit shirt. Still to be sewn but at least I have something ready to go. Today I made some emergency bralettes for Omari. She has started to "bud" and is experiencing some tenderness. I thought wearing the bralette might help with clothing chafing against her chest.


Last month I celebrated my 36th birthday. Every year I think I'm going to sew myself up something special. I haven't gotten there yet. I can't actually believe how a year has already passed since I had my 35th birthday. It doesn't feel like it was so long ago. This year I had a birthday dinner at a very fun sushi bar in N. Hollywood. I had a BLAST!!! Won a cheap t-shirt in the bday person dance-off! We couldn't stop talking about it for days! This place is like a club. There were mini table kegs, sake bombs, loud dance music, a show put on by the waiters. All in 2 hours. Too much fun was had. The boy I invited never called. How Rude! He missed out.
