Doobee64!
Congrats!
So while Spolight has their 50% off christmas fabric I couldn't resist and got some fabric for the kids.
I made my son a pair of boxer shorts out of my trusty pattern Simplicity 9958 and some 1950's repro cotton fabric
and my daughter a simple circle skirt. This fabric came in panels to make a tree skirt (?), but was perfect to make a skirt. I used 2 panels to make a full circle and 3" elastic for the waistband.
Plus i thought this fabric was just gorgeous so made the daughter a simple pillowcase
fab!! I especially like the pillowcase fabric, goes really nicely with the beautiful quilt you made. Your kids must be loving your sewing :D I wish we had better fabric stores here in the U.K, we don't have big stores like Spotlight or Joannes.
ReplyDeleteOh thankyou, Suzy, for the pattern...my first ever win in Bloggerland!!! I certainly am looking forward to trying out the dress.
ReplyDeleteYour Spotlight must be wayyyyy better than the one I pop into. The 50% sale was whittled down to about 5 sad bolts of Xmas fabric in very unattractive prints.
My son loves the boxer's I whip him up - even at 15!!! So you will be on a permanent winner with those.
Oh, I am so excited!
ReplyDeleteI love the christmas clothes you have made. My kids have one store bought shirt each at the moment, I am so slack at the moment.
Hey Marie - i sent you an email, please let me know if you didn't get it!
