a promise...

the left overs from here...
spied...

another pair of boardies requested....

really???

out of this fabric... are you sure???

OK, on the one condition that they are never to be worn with the shirt...

even as pyjamas....

yes mum...i promise....
thank goodness there is no fabric left...
i hate to think what else i could be making....

go figure..

the brief this time was..

1. vintage print - (he picked the fabric)

2. vintage cut

3. rounded collar

i think it looks like a pyjama top, but he loves it...

what goes on inside a 25 year old male brain...go figure...
i just sew to the brief and keep my opinions to myself...
then i know it will be worn...

home made is in demand...

shirts abound in this house with 3 grown men all similar in size..
coat hangers full of them...
but no, but we need/want a red chambray....
a homemade red chambray...

with short sleeves..(man i love my twin needle)


and one odd button...

voila...
but not a model to be found...

pattern: Simplicity 7030, an oldie but a goodie..

p.s our rugs from our trip to turkey arrived...
it looked so big when we bought it, and so small in our room..
but i love it, and the memories it provokes every time i look at it...
