And I also have the new Colette Iris pattern. This yellow version on the Colette website is so cute with the button trim!
I'll be using some cute black & white 1/8 gingham in the stash:
I had thought I would get to a muslin today but instead I painted the living room trim. All day. I'm too tired to muslin shorts now, (and I still have 2 window sills to go!)
Tomorrow I'm going to repaint the living room this pretty "Stormy Cove" blue grey:
It probably seems backward to do the trim first, huh? I hate painting trim. I don't mind the walls so much, but TRIM. Ugh. So I got it out of the way first, that way I can't back out. ;)
SUMMER. Loverly Summer.
What a beautiful blue! I love blue walls with white trim, and I, too, hate painting trim.
ReplyDeleteI'm painting also. I've decided that the kids' bathroom is boring so paint it gets!!
ReplyDeleteoooooh!~ can't wait to see your shorts. If you like them, I have both those patterns in my stash!
ReplyDeleteHave used the Simplicity 2654 multiple times, for the long pants and for the skirt -- love it. That shaped facing on the waistband! The multiple vertical seams for fitting! The non-functional tabs that wrap from back to front! Will never make a short version, as I took a vow not to wear shorts, when I saw my mother and her friends wearing short shorts last summer. No one needs to see me in shorts, ever again. (No one needs to see those 80+-year-old women in shorts, either, but that never stops them.)
