Do you have those feelings in the opshop/charity shop/thrift store where you just GRAB something and you're not sure why but you know you'll need it one day? I am like that a bit like that all the time, and so have to limit my visits, but I grabbed a bagful of shoulder pads one day just like that.
I didn't know any pattern I owned had shoulder pads, and didn't really think I'd ever wear something with shoulder pads, but now I've made 2 things this year with shoulder pads! That's my current project above, based on these gorgeous instructions:
Happy Valentines Day (or two weeks in our household, everything is celebrated in 2 weeks at LEAST, but considering we've had our wedding anniversary AND my parents came to stay and we went on a fancy dinner, I think we're lying low for this next two weeks!) to you!
*** Update! ***
Mena's announced this week theme, which is SEEING RED for Val Day and so the above is a little sneaky peak of what I'm making! You should see Mena's fabulous red floral number right now!
I share this feeling with you, I shudder to walk into a store thinking that I will not control all the wonderful things I could use some day ....
ReplyDeleteThis project has very good look. I can not wait to see it finished.
The fabric looks so pretty from its wrong side, so I can't wait to see the finished garment. I'm sure you will be adorable, as usual. Good luck with your photography assignment!
ReplyDeleteI have that exact same pattern and i've always been tempted to try it out. Please post once you're finished!
