Hmm. Today feels like a Lemsip kind of a day. Two more skirts and a tunic to make for Tiger Lilly, and all my October sewing will be done.

Finished a coat this morning, now working on a black needlecord cloche hat. Debating whether to try and make a trilby for myself.

Onwards & upwards. Now thinking of interesting little things to make and sell at the Oakford's Sunday craft stalls between now & Christmas.

Didn't get the job - not enough experience. Next step - to ask about more volunteering opportunities, so I can get the experience I need.

New blog post - in which I show you pictures of what happens when you accidentally melt your fabric. Oops.

I keep forgetting about @ because it isn't on every day. Thank goodness for the iPlayer, or I'd have missed the whole series!

Well. Today would be going better if I hadn't just melted the shoulders of my half-finished beautiful taffeta coat with the iron. Dammit.

Whose daft idea was it to make a great long coat out of polyester taffeta? It's a nuisance to sew, and full of static electricity. Blech.

Switching my email off for the morning, so I don't go mad wondering whether or not I've got the job every time the computer goes 'bing".

Watching "Logan's Run". Very dated, but the model shots are impressive. I wonder how much of that skill has been lost to CGI?

New blog post - in which I spend the day making jewellery, and listing it on @.

I wish people would stop telling me not to worry about things. It's like asking water not to be so wet.

Lifting my usual booze ban to enjoy a bottle of Young's Double Chocolate Stout, accompanied by warm chocolate sponge cake. I needed that.

Interview's over. I spent the walk home thinking of all the clever things I should have said. Typical.

I have a brand new suit (thank you M&S!) and a great long list of questions to ask. I think I'm ready for my interview!

T-21 hours is not the best time to discover that I've given my one and only interview/funeral suit to the charity shop. Argh!

@ Apparently common sense goes out of the window when it comes to weddings. 16 days to go, and wondering if it's too late to elope!

Wondering about the etiquette for asking people not to bring swine flu or norovirus to the wedding. Many guests very vulnerable to illness.

It feels a bit early for trying to explain copyright law as it pertains to commercial sewing patterns, in the comments on Flickr.
