This was the weekend, if you recall, when I had nowhere to be for the first time in about 3 months, and I relished every minute of it. Well, right up until I decided that Sunday would be the day to tackle my goal for August and get that pattern all laid out nicely o.O In vain I hunted for tutorials on how to lay the pages out in Illustrator (because, funnily enough, being a vector graphic tool it’s not something you find a lot of people advocating!), so in the end I downloaded a trial of Adobe’s DTP software In Design. After some meandering through some online tutes for about half an hour, I decided I was ready to go.
It’s all done now, but it took hours and hours and… well, you get the point! Still I have now got it done pending the branding that I need to add to it, and a final review, so I don’t have that pain again ;o) I did actually get some sewing done to though, so I have a bit of a pay off! You’ll understand though that none of it was actually on my list from last week *ahem*
Finishes This Week:
Rien. Niet. Nada.
In Progress This Week:
Colourful new project, pics to follow.
Stitch Tease blocks for Jennifer
Rescuing this project:
To Be Worked On This Week:
Jammy Bottoms from FQR (if I mention it often enough, I’ll actually do it, right?)
Stitch Tease blocks for Jennifer
Grand cupboard clear out and loft reshuffle – yes, this has nothing at all to do with sewing, but if it’s not done soon, my house will implode. Honestly…
Linking up, as ever to:
woohoo! those choices are stunning!
Good Luck- love your zingy fabrics for Jennifer :o)
Jammy bottoms, Jammy bottoms, Jammy bottoms….just trying to help!
ooh good luck with the clearout….
I was thinking of you and all your travels today, on my 6 hr trip north. Loving your fabrics
I love that row of colourful fabrics!! Looking forward to seeing the after photos of your rescue!
I keep hoping for a Tardis cabinet or closet to solve my space woes. No luck so far, though.
Oh if I knew I could have helped! InDesign is my day job!
I think you did enough with the pattern etc to be considered for awesome chick of the week …
Im thinking I wouldn't have been able to resist the lure of that rainbow of fabric long enough to get the other thing done!
Your stitch tease blocks will look gorgeous with those pretty fabrics!
Ooooh, I love those rainbow colours. Soo happy and delicious! Is the rescue job a skirt?
Good to get that pattern done.
The colors for your Stitch Tease block are just yummy!
love the rainbow fabrics, i could help with this, but nite with design!
