I’m trying to be very careful. I can not afford to make mistakes at this point. There’s less than two weeks to go. Pressure just redoubled. I know they sought out and found judges for my entry. That’s both exciting and terrifying.
Time to stab fabric. Goals for the day: (1) finish the edge of the migoro (body panel), (2) mark out the seam lines for the okumi (overlap panels) attachment, (3) attach the okumi.
If anyone needs me, I’ll be on the couch under a pile of silk.
When has the pressure Become just too much to bear? I feel it creeping
It stalks like a predator Cold eyes shining in the dark
The poems have been a good outlet for my anxiety.
The migoro has a finished edge and the stitch lines are marked out for the okumi attachment. And now we have a brief pause while I edge a different part of the migoro where I cut it open – this is the front center, the edges where the okumi attach. Fun times.
Third time is the charm, looks like the okumi will be attached tomorrow.
