I’m back… kind of

December 27, 2012 by Anne Weaver

 

This was the scene at my house Christmas evening…  about an hour before the power went out.  40 hours later, we’re still without power.  Clearly, I won’t be blogging as much as I usually do until they get us back up and running.  Hopefully it will be just another day, though the power company says it can be as long as a week.  Eeek! Let’s hope that they won’t take that long.  Until then, I’ll be blogging from Starbucks and my mother’s house and thinking sew-y thoughts.  🙂

      Thanks! We did have a beautiful white Christmas this year.
      Usually we just get rain and sometimes ice. I’m very thankful for or generator that’s keeping us warm until our power is restored. Best wishes for a happy new year! –Anne

    My sister lives close to Little Rock and was out of power for several days also. Glad to hear you had a generator; we learned that lesson in Missouri with the last big ice storm

      We got our generator when the ice storm came in 2000 and knocked out our power for 10 days. We got one so we’d never be without heat again. It has been a good investment. 🙂 –Anne

    We have also been without power since Christmas I’m thankful too for our generator. Hopefully yours will be back on soon. Weve been told ours won’t be back until Tuesday Yuk!

      Are you in the Little Rock area? They also told us Tuesday, but I’m keeping my fingers crossed that it will be sooner. I’m hoping the Tuesday was an overestimation by the power company. I hear rumors of power trucks on major streets near my neighborhood. 🙂 Glad you guys have a generator to keep the heat on until the power comes back. –Anne

    Ran across your web site of your home, I also live in Arkansas, Roland and this pass year was a nightmare to me. On Christmas day no lights until Sat night. We also had to make the trip to home depot for a generator, investing in the big boy this year. Take care very nice home. email me some time.

30 Jumpsuits You Can Sew Yourself – From Effortless Weekend Wear to Showstopping Styles

Let’s talk about the magic of jumpsuits.

One piece. Endless style. Zero outfit math.

Whether you’re living in your sewing studio or just dipping your toes into garment-making, there’s a jumpsuit pattern out there with your name on it. Think about it:

• Instant outfit (no more staring at your closet at 8am)
• Comfort that looks chic (secret pajama vibes, but make it fashion)
• Custom-fit perfection (goodbye gaping backs and too-long straps!)

But here’s the problem – store-bought jumpsuits never seem to get it quite right. The waist hits at the wrong spot. The straps dig in. The fabric feels cheap.

That’s why we’ve hunted down 30 incredible jumpsuit patterns – from easy-breezy weekend rompers to sleek, tailored styles that’ll make you feel like a fashion designer. And the best part? Many of these are absolutely FREE.

Whether you’re a beginner looking for a quick win or an advanced sewist ready for a challenge, this roundup has your next favorite project. Let’s find your perfect match!
