New Look 6843

This skirt was practically free!  I got the fabric in a bundle from Fabric Mart Fabrics.  Score!

Vogue 8138

I made two versions of this, in a maxi length.  I like them and I may just make another in black.

Easy to make, very flattering.  I think I need a bunch more.

Vogue 1027

Here is my interpretation of the timeless Donna Karan design.  I wore this for my graduation on Saturday, and again today to work.  Now that I'm good with making this design, I owe one to my sister in Illinois.

Butterick 5333

I've been sewing like a madwoman, getting ready for my trip to Asia this week.  I'm making several versions of Butterick 5333 because it is lightweight and easy to put together in an evening.  Both these versions were made with Vera Wang fabrics which found their way to on line retailers beginning last fall.  This blue jacket is a $2/yard brocade from Fabric.com.  The red one is a stretch denim from Fabricmartfabrics.com.

She is wearing a red and white jumper I made her.  She loves the swings!

St Pat's Day

Charlotte on St. Patrick's Day.  I didn't make this outfit, but she is cute in it!
