Butterick B5982 - Flower summer dress

It's still in February, but I want to show you(hehe) my favourite summer dress!
This dress make me feel like 'Holiday in Rome'.
Quite classic style but it make me so smart. :)

The pattern is used Butterick B5982.

I just adjust the length of skirt - to longer as I am not 20 age.. (But I always call my self forever 21!)

I put this dress last summer 3 or 4 times. I have received compliment from shop staff..
'Your dress is very nice, where did you buy?'
'I made this'
'Really?!'
:DD giggle giggle

With purple tops

I can't wait this summer!

Have a nice day,

Dog Coat

Hi there again! Last June or July(I thought), I have made this round neck coat by dog print fabric. Do you remember this fabric, I made the skirt from here!

The pattern from this book 'Casual Sweet Clothes'.

Round Neck Coat

I actually don't like the round neck part - it opens a little wide for me. I thought this widely open neck could make me cold.
I have modified neck part - 2cm narrower than original pattern.

The result made me very satisfied - I was so happy to wear it to town. :)

From side

I originally thought this coat is for Spring - early Summer time. But It seems I could wear it now. :-p

Have a nice night,
Yasuko

Purple Skirt

Hi there,

I haven't updated my blog almost a year however I have been busy sewing.

Here is my purple skirt - I bought this fabric at near my home and I quite like this fabric.

I made this skirt for travelling to Japan end of last year. Japanese winter is very cold - even I am wearing Uniqlo heat tech, I need a warm clothes.
This skirt is perfect solution for winter and waist part is used with elastic. This means.. I could eat a lots! No worry about my tummy size! :p

Have a nice day
