Taken in Christchurch where we stayed. The owner of the cottage had a beautiful garden so I was able to spend a bit of my holiday time taking photos. 'Globe Thistle'
it's way impractical, but I am ALL OVER the idea of a semi-sheer redingote with a gigantic bow closure at the neck.

I had a second go at Simplicity 3887, using this thrifted vintage knit fabric. The weight of the knit really got rid of the "tent" effect that my first version had. I also took the sleeves in even more b/c they were too enormous. I made the shorts out of some thrifted jeans that were too long and tapered. They've become part of my daily wardrobe.
*Love* this skirt. This and the vest were pieced out of several remnant lengths of a lightweight chocolate wool tweed from the Mill End Store here in P-town. Slightly different seaming on the front than the orange corduroy. This is the second version; the front is interfaced with fusible interfacing and it's lined. Unfortunately OOP!
Zippers are my kryptonite. Grrr. This was my first time sewing in sleeves--the first one had to be ripped out and resewn and gave me a migraine. The second one went much better, though.
This is me scratching my head, cause I'm already out of ideas. XD This is prolly the simplest shot I've had in my project. And I kinda like this editing. ;D I tried this hairstyle on my short hair, and I'm glad it worked. FYI, don't think I was bare. I was wearing a tube there! Hahaha.
And I made a collage of the out takes. But IDK if I'll post it. XD Maybe I will some time this week.
Today = blur. That is all.
