...thank God for another year! I've always enjoyed having my birthday just 7 days before Christmas., It has been a very happy birthday indeed, especially since I was able to complete my new top last night. It always feels good to wear something new on ones birthday. I went with New Look 6415 again since I had already used the pattern twice before (here and here).
I chose to work with stretch panne velour again in a different color-way. I went with View C but added long sleeves that I modified just a bit by cutting the bottom of the sleeve in a slight bell shape.
The panne velour provided just the right amount of warmth for this chilly day paired with my Vogue 8859 pants made several months ago. Now it's time to clean the sewing room again. I've got far too many loose pattern pieces floating around in here.
What's going on in your sewing world???
