Realisations

I can't fit a back closing bodice on myself if the HG is not home to pin me into it.
I've almost run out of cotton remnants to use as muslin.
I still have a few meters of muslin gacked from my grand mother's stash, but it's probably never been prewashed.
I lack some motivation when I have no one to talk to at night.
My house is damn big for just one person.
Despite the work and stress it is, I'm having a heck of a good time planning our wedding.

Solutions, in the right order :
Convert back closure into front closure for the time being, alter the mock-up when I have someone at hand to pin it where I can't reach.
Go buy a bolt of Bomull at Ikea someday.
Tuck the cotton in the washing machine and work on Mom's suit until it's dry.
Put on some Rammstein, drink tea and eat comfort food.
Post on LJ. Watch Top Chef while pinning, unpinning or unpicking seams.
Live in bedroom, workroom and kitchen and forget about the rest (except bathroom and toilets, of course).
Keep going !

I'd like to avoid unpicking seams, too, but I need to take the mock-up apart in order to cut my real fabric.
