I had to break my new rule about changing each garment every time I wear it: pretty much all of the skirts without elastic have had their zippers crushed in the press and have to be repaired, and I had already worn all of the others since printing them. I got up early and made two new dresses to get me through the weekend, since I'm away from studio for the next few days and can't print, but needed to wear this skirt again in order to have something to fly home in today. As it is one of my new dresses has ink on it that's not quite dry, so there might be some project-related disaster this weekend.

I love the way the print skips over the bunches and creases in the fabric, and I especially love the way the folded-up hem from one side makes a big dark pressure mark when the other side gets printed (excuse me, miss, but your process is showing).

No new sewing this weekend as I'm babysitting a dog and I didn't bring my sewing machine to her house. Tomorrow, though, I'll begin printing overtop of the existing clothes. I'd like to set a goal of changing each garment before I wear it again, every time, and think that with another week of sewing new things I'll have enough pieces to begin to do that. Then this will really get interesting, instead of just taking pictures of the same old things.

I will have a new t-shirt to wear tomorrow (along with an old skirt), one that I mucked up a bit today while silkscreening a bunch to sell.
