I am just so impressed by Julia Gillard in Parliament today. Video found on the ABC HERE. It was well delivered and directed and fully deserved. Very heartening. Sexism should always be unacceptable.
I am still sorting my fabric, will this hell never end? I know I will be happier once I am finished but at this point I just want to give up. Blergh.
I have been reading that spraying your slippery fabric with starch assists cutting and sewing, to this end I have been looking up home made starch spray. I decided on a cooked version and I have to say after spraying 2 different chiffons they have dried nicely stiff, hopefully cutting them out will be significantly easier than my previous attempts. I confess that my past experiences has put me off cutting chiffons and georgettes.
My intention is to make the blouse from portrait blouse from Gertie's New Book For Better Sewing, let's see if I get to that point.
