| Love this print |
I only knew I liked the print so I brought it home for $5. The minute I put it on the form I knew what to do. It pleated so well and took on a cool sculptural quality because it matched so evenly from side to side.
As a result, I was able to make a little peplum style that is very age appropriate for me at 53. When I tried it on, it gave me a cute shape not to mention the print and peplum hide a multitude of sins.
Make sure you scroll all the way down to see all of the views. Especially the awful before YUK!
This blog also helped me with my photography skills. I found out that keeping the flash off shows the details of the garments much better.
Stay tuned as very soon I think I will be brave enough to actually model my creations and show how I will accessorize them. Really!
I would love to hear your comments...

Great way to take in a too big shirt. I can totally see why you put this in your thrift store basket. The print is super cool. It would be fun to see you wearing it!
Happy sewing!

Hi Beth,
Look in my archive under "Yes I Really Do Wear What I Make!" and you can see it on me. I get so excited to post that I typically can't wait for the photo shoot LOL! You will almost always see a model of a style in a later post.
