September plans...

9/2
I am focused on workout wear and outerwear.
I have three jackets that I am preparing:
Simplicity 8700 - view A, I’ll add Christian patches
McCall’s 7847 - view  B, I have a navy blue faux fur
Simplicity 8451 - view B, I will use a winter white corduroy

I have three workout patterns that I am preparing:
Simplicity 8702  - view B leopard print activewear
Simplicity 8392 - view B. Leopard print activewear
Simplicity 8312 - view B with view C/D waistband

I’ve cut out all of the above patterns except M 7847 and cut out the fabric for Simplicity 8312.
Of course I am waiting on a replacement for my serger fingers.. I pray that is all that is wrong!

9/3
Still waiting on my replacement part. So...I cut out the fabric for S8392 and S8702.
I think I’ll take a ride to Gaffney’s on Saturday to look for buttons for the “army” jacket and lining fabric for the faux fur coat.

9/5
All I did today was cut out the pattern for M7847

9/6
My part still hasn’t shipped. I called and left a message. I missed the return call, but they left a message telling me that my part was currently in their shipping and would ship today..
I cut out my fabric for S8700. First I had to find the fabric in my stash.. I am stash busting and am on a fabric fast. I watched an YouTube video by Brittany Jones’ Sew With Me channel while I cut it out.. I like to see if there are any problems I should be on the lookout for..
