work, actually it this time

I started workng on my modern suit yesterday.  I finished the skirt, just a simple straight skirt with darts and an inivsible zipper (yay!). I used the same pattern I've been using for skirts for the past couple months so all my fitting issues were already taken care of.  I hemmed it with the machine blind hem stitch, which I only discovered about a year ago, but I love love love.  I don't know how I went through life without it before!

Today I'm working on the coat mockup and on finding pictures of koi fish for my quilt project, so I can copy shapes and details.  I think I might need to go to the local fancy quilting fabric shop to get some more koi-colored fabrics.
