Further Adventures in Sewing

Today I have put on an early morning load of washing. Why? The fabric for my t-shirt has arrived, and before I can start cutting and sewing, I need to pre-wash the fabric.

I do this in the vain hope that today will be sunny, as promised, and then tomorrow, when we expect rain, I can get on with the project.

I am very hopeful about the effect of pre-washing. So many times I buy clothes that then shrink, usually in length and so no longer have the fit I chose in the shop. I assume those fabrics are pre-washed, but sometimes I cannot help but wonder! In this case, however, I know the fabric has been pre-washed, and hopefully, therefore, my t-shirt will fit!

I really am excited!
