However my white shirt making got detoured by the change of seasons (which I believe is happening elsewhere - I wore mitts here out to walk the dogs two nights ago) and my impending vacation.
All I wanted to do is make dresses.
I was also getting bored with the look of all the white shirt patterns I have collected. Pretty similar. In fact I also went out in a white shirt and black pants to eat the other week and thought "Oh my god, they're going to think I am a server."
So I definitely am going to be making white shirts, but I am going to be stepping up the design ideas.
To give you an idea of what I mean here is the vintage pattern I am taking on vacation in my tiny sewing cache:
Warm weather sewing, easy, and interesting to sew. And I am going to be back at the real shirts later in the summer as I gear up for another term of teaching.
That seems very far away though today.
I really like the look of your vintage shirt.

ReplyDeleteI love that blouse. I had one just like it in the 50's. It was white broderie anglaise and I wore it with my grey suit with sunray pleated skirt and black suede shoes. I thought I was so smart. Ah memories!
ReplyDeleteKathy that sounds so elegant, and Sharon this will be my first vintage blouse, I wonder about the fit, should be interesting.
