Sweat shirt


This spring I bought a sweat shirt in support of the Art Fest. I have never been a fan of the elastic band on the bottom because they ride up over my muffin top. My dream was to use hand dyed organza to add a sheer ruffle to the bottom. I had it all pinned and ready to sew...one last fitting and show the hubby for a little feed back (trusted girl Friend gone!)


Well...as you can see the program changed. Bless him for being honest but part of me really wants ruffle and organza!  I understand that it is all the rage for kids clothing and I do not fit in that category any longer...at least size wise!  It turned out to look very much like an Alaska Native Kuspuk.




Some fabric markers, an abalone bead and a couple buttons...all gifts from friends...and I am comfy-cozy.
