New Dress Form on Its Way!

I finally was able to order a new dress form from Fabulous Fit!. I am so excited I have emailed them twice to ask when it will arrive so I can get to work on some projects. I am one of those people that can't start a project until I have the right equipment and material. Gee, I sound like Jay complaining about the Future challenge on Project Runway Season 1. Anyone remember him throwing a fit about his design for that challenge?

Once the dress form arrives and my company leaves I intend to take over the guest bedroom for a few months this spring to review my fabrics and patterns and to try and create some new designs of my own. Did everyone hear about Bravo announcing they will be doing two Project Runway cycles per year instead of one. I don't know when this will start as they haven't even announced Season 3 yet. I'm waiting!

Snip, Snip!


Launch of Sew Haute Couture Blog

A beautiful piece of fabric has inspired me for spring. I love warm colors -- orange, chartreuse, and ivory. I'll try to post pictures of my draping and design as I progress!
Can I say how much I love Kara Janx of Project Runway Season 2? Her kimono dress is available on her web site. The cut, the look on the models, the drape! It's only 200 bucks! I am jonesing to purchase the black with green version. Or, I'll try and drape and design a similar dress myself.

Welcome!

Snip, Snip!
