Baby Steps

 I finally forced myself to take the first steps in assembling all the pieces of Ode to Jane Austen.

I started with the little button bag. The two pieces are self lined, so I need to sew them together and make cords and do some embellishing. But first, I believe I need to give them a good pressing.

I also need to get all the parts for this project organized. I think I have something like nine parts that have to have something done with them, and I think the best way for me to do that is to put the charts for each section with the stitched pieces, and figure out what other bits and pieces from the kit go with those parts, and put them in little piles in the order in which I need to put them together.

That may take the rest of the evening.
