I must say that the year of un-stashing of fabric was very successful! I did have to break down and buy a few yards of fabric and lining so mom could make me a dress, but that was unavoidable.

Lacking in motivation
But full of inspiration. I don't want to actually sit down and work on anything, but I keep coming up with new ideas for things I need to create. This is a chronic thing with me. I have lists and lists of ideas of things to make, but so few of them ever become reality.

Planning
Besides a fabric and fiber inventory, I'd like to make a list of the sewing patterns I own. I have quite a collection, and probably fewer that I have tried than not.

So here's a partial list:

Spoke too soon.
I finished the hat. And a small clutch, which fulfills one of my to-dos. It's pretty small, though, so only about 1/4 yard of fabric used up. But it's super cute.
It's a bit difficult to tell from this photo (crummy flash and all), but that's a vintage mother-of-pearl button, from the Ma Bill collection.
The inner--I actually remembered to sew on the label before I finished the whole project. It's so much easier that way!
