Weekly review: Week ending October 2, 2015
In terms of sewing, this week I focused on learning more about patterns. I used tmtp to write Python scripts that drafted basic shirt patterns, but I still need to sew muslins to test whether the patterns make sense. (Some of the pieces look a little weird…) It's been a slow week because things still feel pretty theoretical, but maybe I'll spend next week knocking out a few small sewing projects so I have more of that feeling of accomplishment.
Also, I got to chat with cool people about Emacs and life. =) Thanks to Bill Z. for reaching out!
