Done & Moving On

I'm done! Finally! And I am so so, SO tired of the color white. 

But, I now have 12 chemises on the rack and ready for The Feast of the Hunters' Moon.  Here are the most recently finished ones.

This one is a size XL.

I love these elegant domed gold sleeve buttons.

 A size 2XL.

Flat and shiny gold sleeve buttons.

 Finally, a size S

with pretty pearl sleeve buttons.

I'd still like to make one more 2XL, but I ran out of fabric and had to order more. 

I buy white cotton by the bolt. There are 15 yds of fabric in a bolt and I can get around 5 chemises out of each bolt. I've gone through two bolts already just sewing for the Feast!

The new bolt of fabric has just arrived, but I haven't opened it. Right now, I am ready for some color. And trade shirts made from colorful block prints are on the docket.

Here are the two fabrics I am starting with:

A very unusual maroon and olive green block print,

and a pretty (and very popular) multicolored block print.

These are for what I call, "The Nebraska Contingent." More on them coming. They never fail to make me smile.

Stay 'tooned!
