In the Queue Wednesday

Many people celebrate the ending of one year and beginning of another with some kind of review and/or planning process. Lots of sewing bloggers, for example, review and summarize their sewing accomplishments of the past year - while others set sewing goals for the coming year.


I'm not big into these activities (Freud could probably have a field day trying to figure out why!), but I did decide that I have too many un-started projects stockpiled in my sewing room and I'm going to make a serious effort to inventory and complete them.


So, for starters, Hawaiian shirts for my husband.


I have been known, on occasion, to lure my husband into a fabric store on the promise that, if he found a fabric that he liked, I would make him a Hawaiian shirt.


And I DO make him Hawaiian shirts. Sometimes.


Possibly not quite as often as I use this ploy to lure him into fabric stores, however...


So, to start off this process, I present to you, the FOUR fabrics that are still sitting in my sewing room, just waiting to be turned into Hawaiian shirts:





Up first, we have petroglyphs and palm trees in blues.




Followed by abstracts and atlases in browns.


DH, I promise you, I WILL make you these Hawaiian shirts. They are in the queue...
