I found missing parts of my papers in amongst my research files! Such a relief because I was scrambling for months trying to rewrite my papers for different formats. I’ve taken my pearlwork off my frame* to put Elsa on there because I really need those extra stones on asap. It’s easy to put her back together- basically I want to add boning channels so I can put lacing in the back as the zip keeps snagging on the under layer. The underlayer needs a gusset under the arms just to allow for slightly easier changes as moisturiser and sweat do the thing that makes it hard to pull stretchy garments on.

I’ve had to take ownership of my harddrive again. And I’m so impatient that I can’t reinstall my printer or software for images and documents yet. But for now I’m getting the pdfs under control.

*It’s so heavy! And it’s probably good I’ve taken it off now as the new pearls make the appliques very firm so the edges lift when the velveteen folds. It will be fine I think if I make sure to tack the velveteen to the support and then through the appliques.
