Ok. In all honesty. Where do you find the time to make such awesome stuff?

Well, I'm back home without a job, without local friends, and without any real responsibilities, so I certainly have lots of time on my hands. Basically whenever I'm not working on music, I'm working on sewing. Short sleeve shirts are super streamlined for me now that I have the patterns cut and understand what alterations I need to make to them.

I actually don't even use pins on most of it now, which I know is a pretty horrible tendency, but it cuts out some time, and my standards are a lot lower if I'm going to wear it vs. if I am making it for someone else. I actually made both shirts seen in this post on the same day - one from like 10 - 12:30 PM, the other 4 - 6 PM.

Also, the desire to not have to ship my fabric to Portland is currently a nice motivator :p
