Last week I wore several garments that I made earlier this year or even last month as well as one over a year ago. The recent wears were:
M6996. got quite a few compliments about this jacket. Most everyone spoke about the back peplum. It was extremely cold the day I wore this and I wore a heavier sweater knit top (purchased years ago) with this and I stayed very warm.
I also wore this McCall's top my second one from this pattern. This fabric was so easy to sew and though a little light weight it felt good next to the skin.
I also wore my first version of this top another day. I posted about this top previously.
I had to attend a board meeting Thursday evening so I wore my reunion dress that day. It wears well and not much wrinkles develop during the wearing; this is the kind of garment(s) I wear on the days that I will put in a 10-12 hours day.
I have decided to move on to making another dress or two or three as well as some skirts. I just need to decide on what fabric and what pattern.
I need to take some photos of my new fabrics from a new to me fabric source and one I will defintely purchase from in the future.
More later.

I really like the first jacket too! But I love herringbone fabric so I'm prejudiced that way.
ReplyDeleteYes herringbone truly tends to work well with lots of patterns.
DeleteI love that top pattern. Easy to sew, big bang for your buck!
ReplyDeleteThank you!
DeleteOh, love the M6996! I just got this pattern, such fun to see yours as I start my project. So pretty, the back really is interesting and what caught my eye.
ReplyDeleteI think the back was the draw for me as well!
