The Mood Sewing Network

Whew! I am back from vacation and have a TON of unpacking to do. I'm planning to post some beach pictures as soon as they get uploaded to the computer. Also, there's one dress near completion and one already done that I need to get pictures of. But first...

(click the one on the right sidebar)
I was out of town for the big reveal, so most of you are probably already aware of the new Mood Sewing Network. If not, here it is in a nutshell:

- Nine bloggers were asked to participate, representing a broad range of experience levels and points of views. Mood has plans to add to that number over the course of time, so if this sounds like something you would really like to do, there will still be the opportunity to do so. (This will be happening in the future; I have no more information about how to go about joining.)

- I get a modest allowance for fabrics on the first of every month. I pick out my own fabrics and choose my own projects.

- Wadders are allowed as they are par for the sewing course.

- I am not paid any money.

The MSN is a fun way for Mood to get people excited about their fabrics and about fashion sewing in general. I am honored to have been picked and am excited about all the beautiful fabrics I'll be sewing with in the months to come.

    Seeing what you sew will definitely help me visualize fabrics that I can't touch in person.
    This might be bad for my pocketbook :) but good for my wardrobe!
