Must... Start... Project...

A couple of nights ago, I ended an evening of studying with North by Northwest. If you have not seen it, I highly recommend that you do both for its cinematic integrity and THE CLOTHES! I was roused from my craft-lessness and may very well start a Real Project this very evening! Eve Kendall (Eva Marie Saint) has simply marvelous dresses and I really should make a nice little something for fall...
Just look at the little vixen!

All of the crafting that I have done so far has been in bits and snatches. I made a couple of sushi-fabric potholders for J and, while they are certainly serviceable, they are not exactly my best work. The photo intentionally does not examine the application of the bias tape... somehow it just wouldn't end up straight. I guess it will be easier to use them than if they were pristine!

I have also started a J sweater of the typical raglan variety that he likes. It is on size 9s so is going pretty quickly. It is a nice little something that I can work on during those long flights from Stormwind to Arathi...

But I want to start something else! For me! Maybe a jacket...

Maybe after I do a little more reading.
