Seams Like the Very First Time

It feels like forever since I last did a sewing project. When really, last major thing I sewed was my final project from my sewing class in May. I have sewn on a button here or there and hemmed a few things since then. But I have decided to embark on my next great project...

This makes me extremely nervous. I mean I know I can do it, but for some reason this pattern just makes me nervous, I haven't made anything this intensive since my prom dress in high school, like two years ago.

But I will try to start the muslin this weekend and cross my fingers have it done by Monday, if I can get to the fabric store for some supplies. Then I'll embark on the real thing. And if you follow me on twitter @theFASHIONgirl I shall be sure to put updates on how this little project is going.

I also want to make like a cosmetic bag, because I can never find the perfect one... I've never made my own pattern, but I think I know enough about sewing to try. I mean I will be taking pattern making in the fall, might as well start now.
So any readers, care to share any new projects you are embarking on?
