A Tentative Step

Inspired by some of my favourite blogs on the web I  have taken the plunge and decided to pick up my sewing and knitting needles again after a long, long absence. 

I have been especially inspired by Diary of a Sewing Fanatic  http://sewingfantaticdiary.blogspot.com/ - I  am in awe of Carolyn's knowledge, enthusiasm and level of skill - and inspired by the the 6 pack plan for Fall/Winter that she has been blogging about, I have decided that this will be my challenge as well:  

To create 6 garments that I can wear to work during the Autumn and Winter.

Now, although the dress code where I work is "smart office wear", I have always pushed this boundary as far as possible towards "casual".  No longer  (although maybe I'll allow myself a "dress down Friday").  I want my six items to fit firmly into the "smart office wear" category.

My initial thoughts about the six items are:

  • A  skirt
  • A pair of trousers
  • A jacket
  • A dress
  • Two tops.
