I went to take a pic of my workdesk today, and it was empty.  Imagine that.

It was empty because last night I finished this top and then cleaned up.  I kinda like an utter mess while I’m working, but I always clean up after finishing each project. (My apologies for the blurry photo, I simply could not hold the camera steady this morning.  Guess I could have gotten out the tripod, but seriously?)

While cleaning out a cabinet (actually, I was looking for my hidden chocolate stash ***grin***) I found a Ziploc bag stuffed with this pattern envelope (Vogue 8251), its instructions, and all the fabric for this top, including all the pattern pieces cut out.  The only thing I hadn’t done was mark them.  I don’t know what was going on at the time that I cut it all out, then packed it away, but it was great to just have to pull it out and do the sewing.

The strand of beads is to repair a pair of earrings and the little book is a stitch-bound book that I made recently but haven’t filled or decorated yet.  I’ll share more about that another time.

  1. I’m having a really busy week but am quickly dropping by to make sure all our WOYWW friends get the chance to win the last of our weekly draws before the BIG one over in our blog shop. Pop over and join in the fun. Good luck.
    Hugs,

    1. Thank you! You’ll notice I didn’t post a pic of me wearing it. That’s cuz I need to lose another 10 lbs or so for it to look good. I think that may be why I put it away, I’d made another view of this pattern and knew it was getting too snug.

      Incentive to keep losing, for sure!
