I finally set aside some time to get some sewing for myself done. So I made myself a cute purse and top for the Summer, both with vintage fabrics. The purse was made with some bright jungle print cotton and a set of vintage wooden purse handles. It was really easy, just feed the fabric thru the handles and stitch, then stitch it down the sides. The handles and the fabric came from separate stock purchases that I made for my website.Below is the top, made from some vintage plisse, bought at a local antique shop, and a copy of a vintage pattern that I bought online. The pattern is actually for a pajama top, but I have plans to wear my top this Summer, if it ever warms up around here.
Bye for now, Carol
