The back has a funny puffy shape and I had to sew the pleats down to the waistline so that it is wearable.

I decided to change the contrast on this pic...which made the light blue background turn to a white one. I really like the way the monarch stands out. :)

Pocket and invisible zipper detail of Simplicity 2215. The pocket was made in a contrasting navy and white rose print pique which I had left over from another garment!

Inspired by all the breezy tops at Anthropologie, I made this using Simplicity 4127. Blogged here.

This is simplicity 2587 designed by Cynthia Rowley. A really easy pattern to make on the serger. On this version, I eliminated the binding detail at the waist and also used packaged binding which looks more grey in person than showing here, it's a nice contrast to the green linen. Up close, you can also see I modified the bust area and overlapped the two front pieces so not so much cleavage is showing. I am busty and this would have been a problem. Now there is a little showing but I can easily wear a thin tank top to coordinate underneath.

Made from Swiss Cotton. I like the little details like the neck gathers and the back loop closure.

The best describe of this is - simplicity. The simpliest bike I've ever had!

I combined the hood, sleeves, and finishing details of the Oliver + S School Days pattern with the body of Simplicity 2534 to make this jacket

I know it's a bad photo, and I will attempt a better one on a sunny day, but I had to post a pic. Very proud of my first skirt.

This pattern is for both a leisure jacket and a zip jacket. Both jackets have long, set-in sleeves easted to fit cuffs, lined patch pockets and optional top-stitching detail. View 1 jacket features a collar and center front seperating zipper and is not lined. The lined jacket in view 2 has a "V" neckline, front button closing and optional purchased elbow patches. This is a great pattern!
