Sweater Dress with double contrast slouch collar and Free Flowing Jacket


Didn't have enough of this Gold Sweater Knit so I improvised by using the little piece and made a small slouch Cowel out of the color and then made a regular size large slouch cowel collar and then sewing the two together before sewing them to the
neck of the dress.

The Free Flowing Jacket is the normal pattern I use, and made the usual scarf out of the leftover side piece and matching earrings of both fabrics.  The scarf jewelry is an old magnetic bracelet wrapped around the scarf.

The pieces were cutout one night after work and they were sewn together the next night after work to wear the next day.

I am trying to inspire you!

New Outfit for Spring

  One of my favorite Patterns   Butterick B5045 This is the Jacket I make so many of... usually some kind of flowy material, like chiffon or lace.  It makes me feel very feminine.   I also like the fact that it is loose and hides a multitude of curves... 😁 I am going to make the pants to the ankles, but nice and loose and flowy out of a royal blue... found in the 2.97  TREASURE HUNT ROOM.  The jacket is one I couldn't resist, a printed chiffon with blues throughout and came off of the Poly special table, which is only 7.66 a yard.  But of course, we have our spring sale right now. That will be Pants, tank, Jacket = 20.00 for full set if you sew it yourself. Of course,  matching scarves and earrings for my total set. The elastic waist big leg pants will be quick and easy and I think I will make the tank top shown here out of the same royal blue.   The jacket will be the print.   See if I can wear it tomorrow. Here is a picture of the full outfit.  I made the jacket a little longer
