Frustrations
I should be sewing right now. I was suppose to sew yesterday and the day before that. Yes, I am procrastinating. Even though I love making crafts, sewing is not my thing. The machine always makes me mad. Either the bobbin messes up or the thread breaks or the tension is off and lately I can't see to thread the needle. As soon as I write this I have to get to it.The things I need to sew are for the wedding. We have to make shawls to go with the bridesmaid's dresses so they will be more modest. I have advice for anyone planning a wedding. Just buy the strapless or spaghetti strap dress and then get a jacket or shawl to wear with it. There are hardly any wedding dresses in the shops that are modest. We bought the most modest dress for Grace we could get in the store and it still isn't good enough. She did try it on but they didn't have her size so we guessed that her size would look OK . It doesn't . So we had to buy a bolero jacket to go with it. I pray it will get here in time for the wedding. We could have just got a nice spaghetti strap dress that was not too low and put a jacket with it. Why didn't I learn this from the last wedding. There are modest wedding dresses out there , I know. The ones we saw were on line. I would have hard time buying a wedding dress on line without trying it on. They were much more expensive too. So, now that I have let out my wedding attire frustrations I will sew. Maybe I can get finished today... no I still have to hem a few skirts before I am done, oh and alter my dress a little. Maybe I will tell my next daughter to elope.  No, there are too many other fun things with a wedding. It will be worth all the work when we sit and look at the pictures and remember... |
