I was all set to do so much sewing last night, but alas, a little guy had other plans for me. Anyway, I did sneak in time to do a little but of re-styling, and I'm almost there on a third item. Maybe tonight I'll finish it.
From this:
Even though I'm not a huge fan of purple, I was somewhat sad that after accidentally wearing it to playcentre, it had become official playcentre-wear. Perhaps it's because we rarely buy clothes new, or maybe I just really like purple in this instance, but I was determined to reclaim this sweater. I actually never "loved" ;-) the emblem on the front, so that and the paint-damaged sleeves were both reworked.
Perfect Springtime clothing for a busy girl. The applique came from a tee-shirt designed and screenprinted by Rosa-May. Sadly I washed the tee with something red, and have not been able to wear it since. I'm glad the print has found a new home.
Joining in with KCWC.

DeleteOh my word - AWESOME! I just did a restyle too (to be revealed tomorrow) but this is much cooler! Are you uploading to the flickr group?
ReplyDeleteI have now! And can't wait to see your restyle!
DeleteI literally gasped and nearly cried (its my lady day) seeing these photos! So nice of you to save the print, and make such a gorgeous top (and gal) x

DeleteI can't decide which I love more - the sweatshirt, or the photos of the sweatshirt. Too cool.
ReplyDeleteGot my machine back today - thinking I might need to have my own little Summer KCWC next month.
Naw, thanks! And yay, fixed machines! And yay, summer KCWC!
