Personal Sewing Plans…FUN!

From the Teal jacquard knit – 2nd from left, purchased from Emma Seabrooke at Schaumburg…

Vogue 1250 – a classic DKNY I imagine will be in my wardrobe for a LONG time – AND serve as impetus to NOT gain weight! Would you believe this takes only 1.25 yards? I hardly could – so bought 3 just in case – and then to make a T as well…

Vogue 1208 – Platt design – just another classic I HAD to have for $3.99 – why not? It might be a strong option for the hand-dyed aqua/blue silk charmeuse at the right of the fabric photo… But, for SURE with the matte, NOT SHINEY side out! Perhaps I’d bind the neckline with a bias of the shiney side, but no sheen on MY hips!

Seems to really need a belt though…could be a sash of the shiny side of the fabric…

Vogue 1223 from Anne Klein.

Vogue 1232 – now this one has a ‘split personality’ in my book. I don’t get that tailored bodice with this flippy, unique flounce skirt. I bought it to create a SKIRT only!
