>I have not had much in the way of inspiration lately in my dealings with sewing. Perhaps it is a loss of motivation because of just finishing my daily job of sewing away at the Opera, or perhaps it is simply that I found nothing inspiring enough to make me take needle to fabric and begin!
If you know my hat fetish you might as well know I have a hat already in mind for my new ensemble- one that actually arrived from Ebay this week! Yum! This little beauty set me back only $7, including shipping.
And, of course, the pattern in question. Picture it in natural linen without buttons all the way down, but a shirtwaist style with two large pockets on the skirt, two large pockets on the bolero, and the sombrero buttons up the front, and that’s what I want!
