I’ve been doing heaps of little not always very exciting things over the past few days. Yesterday I did some more work on the app, and quickly found an issue that I wasn’t sure how to work around. An email to my developer followed!
On the weekend, the Reader and I went back to our pattern drafting course. We had our bodice fitting shells with us, ready to be fitted. Somehow we’d both managed to make different mistakes. 🙂 Changes have been noted, and we’ll be making new shells before the next lesson to check further. We also started drafting skirts, which are delightfully easy compared to bodices with lots of darts and the moving of darts. We’ll need fitting shells of a straight skirt each before the next lesson, again to check fit.
I’ve also been looking at changing my logo for Vetty Creations. Lots of umming and ahhing. I should probably just take the plunge and do it, but I feel its akin to changing your name – its quite a big deal! There are a number of reasons why I want to change the logo – a main one is that the current logo does not work particularly well in a digital environment because of its shape. This wasn’t really an issue when the logo was created!
I think today will be another day of getting orders ready to post, and working on the app. Hopefully my developer will get back to me so that I can continue on the bit I was working on.

It’s amazing how quickly the digital world has taken over, isn’t it. It’s really not that long ago that the internet was very strange and no-one knew what to do with it – and we certainly couldn’t have graphics-heavy pages because they took forever to load!
