Jeans for Fearless February

If you remember, I signed up to make some jeans for Fearless February with Victoria of Ten Thousand Hours of Sewing.  Due to the move, my sewing room wasn't unpacked enough to do any sewing until this week. I have finally traced the pattern and cut my fabric!


I highly doubt that I will finish these before the end of the month, but hey, at least I started them!  This month has been quite the crazy month, and perhaps signing up for this, along with the Polka Dot Frock Fest, was not the best idea.  However, I have finally gotten started on the jeans I have meant to make for almost a year now, so at least I am getting somewhere.  I have also purchased the pattern and fabric for the polka dot frock and plan to make it in time for a March 16 wedding I will be attending.
