the sea of possibilities

*waves* Just checking in to say, yes I am still alive. In fact I'm lurking on LJ, admiring your new frocks & resolutions to not go mad making new things for CosCol. I'm just not commenting much.

Another thing I'm not really doing is costuming. I worked a bit more on the Charles dress then got frustrated and so moved on to the Pimpernel, then got frustrated and moved on to some modern skirts then got bored... My self diagnosis is that I am suffering from rampant CADD.

Like I mentioned on [livejournal.com profile] girliegirl32786's LJ, while a part of me is relieved that I don't have CosCol deadlines to contend with, the rest of me is wallowing in the sea of possibilities and half finished projects in the aftermath of CosCon. For some reason it's overwhelming and I'm finding inspiration hard to find.

Dear costuming fu - where are you?

Waves back...hi there. I'm finishing up UFO's & trying not to let CADD take over.

Glad to see you're still alive! ;) hehe. I think it's that time of year for various sorts of sewing ADD... I'm suffering from a case of trying to decide on my next "big" project. I just got some fabric, and can't figure out for the life of me which one to settle on (without cutting out everything and being overwhelmed with projects to do! ;).

Good to know it's not just me (and the CosCol contingent of course! :>). I saw your post this am and thought that fabric looks familiar! *hee hee*

All I'm trying to sew is a modern skirt and it's kicking my butt. Good luck!
I'm sure inspiration will return and lovely garments will flow from your talented fingers!

Thanks! I'm sure it's just a temporary lapse... like Casey said maybe it's just the time of year. :>

If you find your fu, can you see if mine is with it? ;)

Oh I think maybe they ran off together and are hiding from us! It would explain a lot now wouldn't it? :P
