New Sewing Supplies

I ordered some fresh supplies from Amazon for my goal of reviving my sewing hobby. They arrived yesterday. One of the things I ordered was a set of tailor's chalks. (affiliate link).

I still need to take the time to shop for fabrics. I think I said before that I plan to start with pants and capris. I need a good fit that is easy to pull on. I don't feel at this point in my life that I need to stuff myself into uncomfortable jeans. I also, by sewing my own, get out of spending dreadful time in store dressing rooms on a search for the perfect fit. These are all wins in my mind.

When I get going on these projects I will keep you posted right here. I may even learn how to do the bathroom mirror selfie to I can keep track of fit and the progress of remaking my wardrobe.

I tried the chalks on a bit of fabric. Anyone reading like snowmen as much as I do? Any way these chalks seem to mark well and smoothly with very little pressure needed. You can see my test on that cute bit of Christmas fabric.

I'll leave things here for now. Time to get my retweet favors done, then shower and do a few chores. I might even get in some sock knitting time and some time to finish the book I am reading. 

We are getting together with neighbors tonight for card games.  I am really looking forward to this evening.

Back with more again soon. 
Take care and stay cozy!
