I was just about finished my Crepe dress when my serger decided to stop working... ARG!!! So that puts my dress on hold for now until I can get my machine fixed. Boo.... I guess now I'll have to finish all that hand-sewing I've been putting off. *sigh*
I was poking around online yesterday and saw the Spring Palette Challenge on Colette Patterns' website. I think I'm going to join it, as I want to make a couple of new dresses for work. That's right - I got a job! Woo hoo! And for the first time since before I started university, my job has a dress code - business casual. Considering that most of my jobs (in the natural resources sector) often have my co-workers wearing sweatpants to work, this is basically like going to a friggin' ball.
Like everything else I sign up for, I joined this Challenge a bit late so please bear with me as I try to catch up!

And here are my colour palettes (I couldn't find just one that I liked):
The pastels are traditionally "Spring-y" and I love them, but I do love a bright hit of colour especially after a long, grey winter. Plus they transition nicely into Summer.
I need to go through my patterns and see what I want to make first! Decisions, decisions...
