weekend work

Knitting is just not doing it for me lately.  I'm getting a bit bored by it.  I've done about 5 rows of sweater cuff.

I got a bunch of dance costume work in over the weekend.  Also I spent some time mending a few thrift store finds. 

I tried to work on my wool skirt, but I really, really have a knack for choosing difficult colors that match nothing, so I couldn't find any fabrics to coordinate with it, or even to harmoniously clash with it.  The green has too much blue in it.  So I finally decided that I'll make self-fabric pockets and put a few buttons on them to make them less plain.

Mostly I have the feeling I am working on insignificant stuff just for the sake of working on something, so my sewing muscles don't just atrophy.  I'm hoping something will inspire me soon.
