New Fingerless Gloves and Other Things

I keep the house temperature at 68 degrees during the fall/winter months. If the sun is not out, the house can be a bit chilly. One of the things I've noticed...my hands get cold while I'm working and typing on my keyboard. I was at Walmart recently and came across these fingerless gloves. You know what? They keep my hands warm while I'm working and I no longer feel cold. It has taken me half the day to get used to wearing these. So, here I am wearing my gray ones while I work and type. I also bought a pair of black ones to go with my black outfits. lol!!!!

I had a nice surprise today. My new Pants Fitting book came in the mail. Glad it came in time for some weekend reading. Yes, I forgot some of the things that Cynthia Guffey taught me in class a few weeks ago. So, hopefully with my class notes in hand and reading the book...the knowledge will come back to me.

I need to take my crotch curve and compare it to my KwikSew pants pattern. I will also do the same with a Vogue pattern. I will be sure to post my findings.

I am so behind in my sewing projects. I am now matching my patterns to my fabrics and stacking them. I'm hoping that I can get some time tomorrow to start cutting the fabrics. Maybe I'll get some sewing time on Sunday. Wish me luck.

Were you able to get some Sunday time, Susan? I spent most of mine cleaning :( . I always wondered about those fingerless gloves too. I'm for anything to keep the hands warm!
