It's "C" Week In Kindergarten and Wednesday is the day to bring something to share that starts with a C. So Olive brought Clover, of course! I made her a skirt from some leftover corduroy of a shirt I made years ago, the top from some linen, and the big C came from scraps of this project. Glass vintage buttons--vintage because I got them from the button collection I inherited from my mom, which she inherited from her mom. I used this pattern, although, I changed the orientation of the skirt, because I just happened to match the stripes on the seams and I loved the way the seam looked in front instead of the side.
I got this from a newsletter I receive (from thriftyfun.com): "When sewing if you need to rip out your work, when you are done run a lint roller over the thread and all the little pieces come right out." I thought that was clever and appropriate for national sewing month.
And...cute outfit! I'm always amazed at your talent and abilities.
I don't believe that you just "happened" to match the stripes.

I meant to add: I could use that tip, because I quite often have to rip out a seam when sewing. I have a talent for messing up.
ReplyDeleteYou are SEW creative, clever and constructive. I love you all!
ReplyDeleteClover is the cutest C I have ever seen!
