Sleeves!!

So yesterday morning I had a little migraine and I took my medicine and ate my breakfast and usually after that, everything is cool. Well the medicine didn’t do anything and all morning it kept getting worse and worse. I hadn’t brought any more medicine with me because usually one dose is enough to at least last me through lunch. I tried to hold on til it was lunchtime so I could just go home like normal, take some medicine, lay down and come back at my normal time… but by 10:30 it was getting so bad I couldn’t focus on my work, I was started to feel like I was going to puke (and at one point had to get up and run to the bathroom, but I managed to hold it in), and then I started getting hot. Like I’m coming down with a terrible flu hot and sweaty. I finally had to ask to leave around 10:30. I went home, took a TON of medicine (probably too much), and just collapsed on the couch where I passed out til around 1. I woke up with my headache significantly dulled… I ate a little lunch, and then passed out again til around 4:30ish?

Apparently it was National Cat Day and Luna celebrated by sleeping on the couch with me ALL DAY.

Later that night I messed around with my Merida sleeves. I had a pattern that had one sleeve puff (elbow area). I followed the pattern pieces exactly and after I put it together, I was pretty disappointed in how flat it looked. So I cut new exterior pieces out of my silk chiffon, tripling the amount of fabric it called for, gathered it, attached it to the backing and sewed it in. MUCH better! Then I recreated that for the puff at the shoulder, which I had to figure out on my own, but it ended up being pretty easy.
