Self Stitched September Day 26 & 27, girls shorts and dress

 

I found this remnant of fabric at the thrift shop, about a metre or so, and thought it would be lovely for Miss 6.  It’s a bit stretchy, so great for pants or shorts.  As it’s getting hotter here I decided on shorts.  I just cut around the pants I made for her last week, as the pattern has disappeared.

Perfect for on the trampoline!

I still had some left, so the next day I traced around the shirt dress I made a few weeks ago, and presto!

She wore it before I could even sew on the buttons at the back, with the shorts that were so comfy se even slept in them.  I might have to get some jersey and make PJs next.

Enjoy a little bit of vintage/sewing  and jumping in your day xx

SSS Day 25, Sunday Barbie and a new dress

 

My eldest baby came home yesterday for a week of study vacation, so we celebrated with a family lunch today – a barb-b-que out by the pool.

The girls and I made the chocolate layer cake we made on fathers day, but the icing worked better this time. I wore my new dress (I finished it 5 minutes before lunchtime) that I started two weeks ago.

The same pattern as last time, with the full skirt – which I will make longer next time.
