Not Dead Yet.

The recent days have brought about an intense level of stress, not to mention extreme dislike of Marine Ecologists. My Master's dissertation feedback has arrived and I am not a Marine Ecologist, but the University thought that Marine Ecologists should mark a dissertation on Forensic Anthropology.

Moving on....
In an attempt to save my sanity, I have been trying to craft it up. I have purchased these handy dandy bias tape makers (the little metal thingamabobs, not the smart machine) and am in love. I had purchased a 1/2 inch one last week and broke it out last night. Today I got a 1 inch one and CAN NOT WAIT to use it.
After cutting strips along the bias, you slip it through and press it into form. It is awesome for single fold bias tape. To make double fold, you just fold and press again. I have never been a big bias tape person, as its just another thing to have laying around, but now that I can make it with really awesome fabrics, I will be using it a lot more!

When my projects are complete, I will post some pictures :)
