When It All Comes Together

I feel like I have been sewing for the last 9 months for THIS outfit. A few times I wondered if it was "too much" and then I remember that I sew for my own joy.
The top is a modified Bloom designed by Tina Givens and I will be sharing a tutorial so you can make one, too. I dyed vintage Fontwell Old Roses by Hardy Fabrics with Rit Dye in the hopes it would grey the white background but instead got a pretty blue. Here are a few yummy details.


The maroon slip is designed by one of my two new favorite designers and the pants were designed by the other! The Sydney, by Opal Annie, will delight you whether she is your first make or fifty-first. The sheet I made this from had wrinkles that wished to remain so I stitched them in.

The Patchy Pants, by BMannByBridget, are quaranteed to make you smile while making and wearing them. This pair is not patched as the fabric was woven this way.

All in all this was an absolutely fun outfit to wear and three women stopped me to comment on it! What is on YOUR sewing table? Yours,

 Phyllis aka Queen Sheet
