So I probably ought to use this journal for more than just exchange letters, especially as I logged out of my tumblr for the protest and just forgot to go back. In the interests of doing so this a repost from my Pillowfort with my personal garment sewing plans for 2019 in the form of a Make Nine with lots of waffle. It isn't a complete list, I was given the material to make my first quilt for Christmas and am planning on making at least one bag as presents.

Make Nine is a challenge started by Rochelle of Home Row Fiber Co. It seems like a good way of making myself make the things I need but don't want to make and stop myself from making things I don't need.

My list is going to be pattern light because some of the clothes I liked most and wore most last year were self-drafted and I have had very little luck in making patterns fit me.

Now to get over the lurgy and actually be well enough to trace patterns off, preferably before one pair of jeans dies and I end up making jeans in my pajamas in half a day so I can put trousers on again.

Update: I've traced the jeans pattern but due to continuing lurgy it is sitting in an envelope being ignored. I really need to get around to doing that. The trousers I'm wearing could get up and walk away but I have an awful feeling the other pair are going to disintegrate if I try putting them on. George at ASDA jeans do not survive nearly a year of wear well.
