<p> Happy Sewing,Judy</p> I don't have a spring palette…tag:circle.sewweekly.com,2011-03-04:6365347:Comment:62622011-03-04T22:30:25.000Zcharlotte tilleyhttp://circle.sewweekly.com/profile/charlottetilley
<p>I don't have a spring palette but I do have a finished crepe dress! Hooray!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I am really relieved because it's late here in England, I can only sew once my little girl is in bed, tomorrow night I am going to wear my first crepe dress (from the valentine challenge 2 weeks ago) to my lovely friend Gemma's engagement party and then it is Sunday.... so I had to finish tonight or not meet the challenge.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I will get photos tomorrow I hope!</p>

I know, everyone is producing lovely clothes and I really do feel a part of a 'community' or group that are there for each other. I think if you wear it and love it then the time and effort has been well spent.

OK, this may be a rather basic question, but everyone is putting up such nice collages of their project plans (here and over at Colette) and I am just wondering what tools people are using to compile their images.

Thanks Charlotte. I am having so much fun with these challenges (if not devoting a little too much time to it), and most things I have made I have worn already, and loved .... so worthwhile. I am so inspired by everyone within this "community".

I think your doing pretty well on the design front, and brilliantly on getting all those garments made up. When you put past clothes together you realise you'r building up quiet a collection.
