Quick Update before Bed

So cool!

A few quick updates from me before I have to go to sleep after a long evening of sewing:
  •  Thank you all so much for your lovely comments on my Ghana Dress. This is so encouraging! My dress has even been included as a featured project on the burdastyle front page. I don't think this has ever happended before.
  • I'm really excited to see how everyone is getting on with the June Challenge. A few lovely dresses have already been completed: The 1am dress by Dibs, Burda 101 dress by Freya in a lovely swiss dot, and a pretty flowery dress by Shawnta. Did I forget anyone?
  • My second June Challenge dress is almost done....almost...
  • I'm in the process of switching from Bloglovin' as my blog reader to Google Reader, although I don't really like using all of Google's services (can they look inside my brain?), but what can you do? Their stuff is just good. My decision came after seeing this great video found here
  •  

    Did you know about all these features? Hope you are all having a great time stitching up your summer dresses. See you soon...

    1. I just had to go over to BurdaStyle just now to see your dress. And there it was shining brilliantly on the front page! That is one beautiful dress and I'm glad the BS team chose to place it in a prominent spot for all to see. Can't wait to see what else you're working on!

    2. Once upon a time my reader was organized then I started adding things willie nillie so this was a great reminder to use those features.

    3. Argh! When I signed up for the June challenge, I didn't realise how busy my June would be. I had hoped to have 2 dresses almost finished after this weekend, but ran into fitting problems, so I haven't even finished the first dress.

    4. Hm... you really got me thinking now (I follow blogs through my blog-list, maybe I should swap systems...).
      I missed the June Challenge, but I'm still struggling with a June-dress! A refashion. Difficult if you ask me... :-)
