Gratitude Series - photo #37
My cousin's daughter requested a satin nightgown. I knew pink with rainbows would be perfect for her. It is backed with soft, not too thick flannel - I got it at Joann's last year. I was a bit tricky doing a satin yoke but I am happy with how it turned out. Apparently it gets worn every night.

This week's theme was: S is for Simplicity
I love daisies, from the small ones that grow in lawns to the large ox eye daisies. These were growing at the edge of someone's garden. The photo is a quick phone shot with minimal processing, just to keep it simple.

Russ Miles and David Dawson came to Skills Matter and gave a one day workshop on how to inject simplicity in software. Working in teams, delegates created their code to navigate a real world AR drone (without crashing it!), learning how to break down a problem and tradeoff for the right values in Architecture, Design and Code. How to create the right number of tests to build the right level of confidence and how to enable Real Application Agility through Simplicity.
You can see the SkillsCasts (film, code, slides) of the day at: skillsmatter.com/event-details/home/russ-miles-practical-...

I'm pretty strong in my assumption that scallops are too cloying and sweet for me to pull off--but the full-skirted view? with the peppermint red and white color combo and the flower at the waist the the pleats in the lightweight overlay? Love.

I really liked the idea of this pattern. It's nice to have something that's easy to care for, made of fleece but doesn't look like you just walked out of the gym. The pattern has 4 jacket versions and a (rather hideous) vest option. I've never sewn with fleece before so I bought some less expensive mint colored fleece and a slightly more expensive fleece in a deep plum shade. My plan was to sew my second choice jacket designs with the green to get my feet wet with fleece, before cutting into the purple fabric.
I don't hate the end result but it's definitely not as nicely designed as I would have liked. My biggest issues are that it's just plain fussy to put on, the collar is a single, unfaced layer and rolls if it's not laying just so, the little accent bow does the same thing. The inner facings are all over the place. You really have to put it on and check that everything is in order instead of just tossing the jacket on and going.
My other issue is that the cross back measurement is too wide for my taste, by probably a full 2"/5cm. Jackets are generally cut like this to give room for layering, but I'm a hussy and wear mostly slim fitting clothing. On me, the shoulder seams fall off my shoulders and the look is a little sloppy.
The other thing to be aware of, which has more to do with my crappy skills than the pattern, is you really need to know which seams will be unfinished in the final product so you don’t cut those edges like you were a few sheets to the wind before you started. Fleece isn’t very forgiving in that sense.
I may still sew the other version of this jacket that I like a little better. If I do, I'll narrow the front and back pieces, mid shoulder (so I don't have to monkey with the fit of the collar or sleeves) and I may find a better way to keep the inner facings in line. I'm not an expert enough seamstress to go too crazy with mods but I think the pattern is salvageable.

I really wanted DuBarry 2335B, but DuBarrys are rarer and I'll probably die of old age before I find another one. I didn't buy the one I saw originally because it was too small, but now I'm braver and more determined to learn pattern grading.
This one has a less interesting back bodice than the DuBarry, but maybe I can improvise that once I get going. The DuBarry also has a fuller skirt and an attributed date of 1940, which suggests that this version is a couple of years earlier.
