Hi there! Some of you you already know me from my blog: Two On Two Off. I wasn't going to join this sew along because I am a little in jacket-burn-out-mode right now. I started a Vogue jacket quite a while ago and still haven't finished it. I will finish it but just not right now. After seeing all the fun posts on this blog, I decided to join. My husband is in Houston shopping for me right now. He knows my tastes (often better than I do) and he likes to shop. Below are the two wool boucles he found and bought for me. I love, love, love them both. I haven't seen them in person yet; this is a photo he emailed to me. Once I see/feel them in person I will come up with a pattern. I'm also a Burda girl so I'll be looking at my editions of BWOF to see if I can find anything suitable. Anyway, just saying hello and I'll post more later once I think about this some more.
I'm excited to see everyone's progress and ideas!
That houndstooth is looking particularly fantastic! Welcome to the sew-along, Dawn!
ReplyDeleteI love the purple houndstooth. Purple is a favorite color and I love houndstooth weave.
ReplyDeleteI cannot believe after all the work you've done on your jacket through your couture class that you're signing up for round two! Clearly the pain is not unlike childbirth - you quickly forget how bad it was and then decide actually, you could do it again ...
ReplyDeleteYour husband has great taste. Both fabrics look great in the picture.
ReplyDeleteHey stranger! You know you're gonna pick the purple one...
