after the Ice Cream Sew Along I have well and truly caught the sewing bug, I have bought a couple more Oliver + S patterns and have muddled my way through some summer clothes for Rosa and friends. 
A bit pink Honeycomb Kei was the perfect trim for this sweet Japanese print. This one is for our little two year old friend Lucia.....pattern is the Ice Cream Dress view C with added band.
There was certainly a lot of this going on while adding the piping and yoke to this Oliver + S Play Date dress. I got there in the end and was really pleased with the result. I have shortened the sleeves in this one but plan to make more with longer sleeves.
And this is the Blossom Blouse from the Sew Liberated book, I need to make one more before I send them off to some baby twins who are already just about old enough to fit them.....
I am getting faster, and finding reading patterns easier but I still have a long way to go. At least I'm enjoying the process I guess....
Love what you have done! looks like someone is going to have a beautiful new wardrobe to wear.

ReplyDeleteThey all look fabulous! What lucky girls! Like you, my head's in summer: I'm reluctant to do any more winter sewing - have too many summer things I want to try!
