My Sewing Blog

My laptop just died.  It was going pretty badly anyway.  I changed my mind about what I was going to write on the first day - then I was ill for over a week, so I fell way behind.  Then I realised that my new idea basically had no plot, so it was really a drag to write.  I managed to get to about 17,000 words.  Now the hard drive has gone on my laptop.  It was kind of old.  I got it in 2004 and it wasn't new then.  My other two 50k+ novels are on that hard drive, and pretty much anything else I've ever written.  But I'm not too sad about it.  They are still in my head.  I could always write them again if I wanted to. While I was ill I did some smocking.  I started on an unfinished project.  Now I'm not going to be writing for the rest of the month I am going work on some sewing instead.  It's a bishop dress I am working on, so once the smocking is done it just needs a couple of bits of sewing to finish it off.  I have 2-3 other almost done dresses.  I will work on
