Ten days ago, I managed to do a sterling job of clwaring the kitchen worktops and cleaning. We also did a mini declutter of part of the loft, and I was able to give away most of the stuff. The rest went to the tip. We now have enough space to put the beer and wine stuff back up there.
I even managed to identify quite a lot of fabric for destashing, but I haven't managed to sell it yet. It's been moved into the box room, so that I can continue the Tetris involved in moving fabric about.
I had my booster a few days ago and I've had a bit of a reaction to it, which is a nuisance.
I had decided to make myself some long sleeved tee shirts, as it's a bit chilly now. I couldn't find the sleeve pieces for any of my self drafted patterns. So, I had to go through them more carefully, and I decided that I would get on and do the scanning.
The carrier sheet I bought is too big. I debated for a day or two whether to cut it, or to buy one the right size. They are horrendously expensove, nearly £100, so I decided I'd cut it. I#m going ot do that today.
I did some test scans in the meantime, and they are looking accurate enough.
I hope this works.
The idea is that I will scan in all my "self drafted" pattern pieces. It originally meant that it didn't matter if I lost pieces, I could reprint them. It also meant that when I want to make alterations, I can print a copy of the original, rather than having to trace a copy.
Now that I have a projector, it also means that I don't need to print them, I can just project them!
Tools like Inkscape should help as well.
I so hope this works.
