Pattern Alteration and Fit: taking commercial patterns and making them fit a real body before you cut them out and sew them. I will be altering and sewing two patterns for myself.
Jewelry Making: as it says. Next Wednesday I am making a ring (a silver band). Which finger should I make it to fit? I'm thinking my right thumb. ;-)
Intro. to Ballet: I went to this class last night; it was kind of disconcerting to walk into a class full of tall, thin kids who are all twenty years younger than me. But as we watched some videos and talked about ballet a little, I realized that I probably know more than 99% of the class. They may look better, but I will dance as well as they do, and maybe better than some. (That's really bad of me, isn't it?)
Draping: learning to make a pattern by draping and pinning fabric over a figure to make a piece of clothing, and then taking that draped garment and making a pattern out of it. And guess what? I get to work with Georgianna again—my dress form from last spring! Isn't that happy news?
So there we are. For real. And I think it will be OK.
