Sewing queue... What's next?

I've just started my final Masters module, so the obvious question is.... What shall I sew? Can't beat sewing as a procrastination aid!
On my recent trip to Fabricland I picked up this Hummingbird t-shirting and this lace jersey (which isn't very stretchy).


As the sun is still shining and it's a month till our UK holiday, I think the Hummingbirds are calling and will be first in the queue. I won't even go into the rest of my fabric stash, which is hidden under the bed.

But what to make? I'm still nervous of stretch fabrics following my sequinned jersey disaster. I don't have a serger (I'm not entirely sure what one is). And my attempts at working out the Phantom Foot Pedal's other stitches have only got as far as zig zag and a very shakey buttonhole.

Anyhoodle, my plans for the hummingbirds are vague. A top, almost certainly. But t-shirt, long vesty tunicy dress thing to wear over leggings? I will have to have a look through the old Burdas and see if anything looks promising.
