You see, after reviewing the pattern pieces, I see that I neglected to jot down sufficient assembly instructions. I must have assumed that I would always remember how to make these. Evidently I didn't take into account old age and memory loss. I noticed that my scribbles indicate that many of these patterns date back to 1996. Ha! I don't even remember what I did last week, how am I ever going to remember what I did over a decade ago!?!?
Unfortunately, I'm going to have to attempt these on memory alone and I can see that this is going to be a long process.
Wish me luck. I think I'm going to need it.
Aloha!
I wish you all the luck in the world. I went through some things I made notes to make a long time ago and could not figure out what they were or why I made the notes. I did not have pictures to go by either. I scrapped them. I have enough ideas to keep me busy.
ReplyDeleteGood luck, Lettie. I understand how you feel coz' I am having the same condition as you. Could you tell me how you organise those paper patterns once you did it. I need some advise on how to put them in a proper storage. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteYou have my wish for luck, but I have to say with your lovely knack for sewing, I don't think you'll need it. You have a good eye for putting things together...looking forward to seeing the bags.

I have no doubt that you'll come up with something fun and pretty ... they don't have to be the same as the originals - they can really go in any direction you want to take them! I'm looking forward to seeing what you come up with :)
ReplyDeleteLettie, I have faith that you will be able to figure out your patterns in time. Who knows, you may even come up with yet another new pattern from the combination of a few old pattern pieces.
ReplyDeleteGood luck.
You know, I had such a good memory, thought I'd never forget things that ...hmmm.....turns out I DID forget! I only hate it when I can't figure it out. I'm sure it will come to you.
