#I'm top stitching these overlocked pieces that were sewed down onto foundation fabric

[dinosaurcharcuterie]

I woke up in a cold sweat yesterday morning, scared I'd not have enough patches for the bad idea/patchwork/leftovers dress.

Then I counted my squares, realized my extreme reusing of cutoffs had me in a nice and cozy spot and descended into a haze of mindless sewing until I got here.

I put new cones on my overlocker when I started this project. The only other one I did was 4-yo nephew's knight coat. I may have trust issues when it comes to patchwork fraying with wear, and foundation piecing is not gonna lay them to rest.

I just finished panel 10 out of 14.

I can't feel my right wrist or upper spine.

This thing still needs a hem finish and it might have to be binding or a hem facing, because none of it will take kindly to turning over.

I wanted to have this done by Tuesday evening.

I desperately need a pep talk that I can finish this.
