May. 3rd, 2007 12:59 pmWho else hates doing repairs and/or alterations? I know they won't take that long, but it's sitting myself down to actually do them that's the trouble. So by next Monday, I've promised myself I'll:
- hem those pants I bought last summer (black linen menswear-style from Mexx, because Mexx makes pants that fit me right!) though that's a tricky deal without a full-length mirror
- tighten the elastic on the pink skirt I made last summer, because it's now too loose for my slimmer self
- take in an inch and a half at the waist of my Springtime in Paris skirt, because I failed to take my shrinking waistline into account and it will look better at that length, anyway. Right now it just sort of hangs on my hips
- repair a little snag in my green knit wrap top.
