Summer Top


This is Simplicity 2892.  I used cotton gauze fabric, purchased from a website called Gorgeous Fabrics (www.gorgeousfabrics.com).  I LOVE the light weight of this fabric.  It feels and looks like summer!  I can't say I enjoyed sewing with it though.  It frayed all over the place (made me wish I had a serger) and stretched when I ironed it lightly.  Its fragile to say the least!  I do love the outcome though.

Bubble Dress




I saw this Oliver and S Bubble Dress made with Park Slope Turquoise fabric on the Spool Sewing website.  I liked it so much I made two just like it.
