[I Adore Film Noir]

Here in Florida it doesn't really get cold enough for a heavy winter jacket so I made this out of fleece. I need to go find a cute button for the front.

Your apron is adorable but your coat is fantastic! You're so tiny, how about a matching fleece tie belt?

^^^^^^^^
That is very nice Shebear. Did you use a pattern or draft it yourself. It's lovely either way.

Thanks! It's McCall's pattern 6442

I am going to put a button on but I do like the belt look too.

The hooded version of that pattern would make a great raincoat!

I posted this dress already but thought I would show me all "beautified" lol. I took my 16 year old son to a jazz concert last night. We had a great time, and I am just happy he still likes to hang out with his Mama

Shebear- to be honest I thought that was your significant other (and not your son) when I first saw your pic... I read it twice and was really confused because you do not look like the mother of a 16 year old. But I also have to say- I love your dress!

 

[Retro_GI_Jane]

Shebear, that is a gorgeous dress and the color is really "you!" Nicely done. And I hate to sound like a broken record, but I echo everyone else's thoughts...wasn't expecting you to say that was your son! Wow!

 

[shazzabanazza]

Shebear... I love the dress is gorgeous! and the white coat is awsome!

 

[SheBear74]

I don't mind broken records if they say I look young! Thanks ladies!!!

I made some charm pins and bracelets from coins we found while doing maintenance on the
commercial dryers in our laundromat.Heat and friction over the span of ten years has distorted them and rolled the edges over, turning them into found sculpture.

I love everything about this dress except the sleeves. I hate doing set in sleeves. I'm the worst at it.

 

[SheBear74]

Crwitt, those are super cool!
Christi, cute dress love the fabric!!!

 

[crwritt]

Love the birds on that fabric, Christ.iadell. Thank you, Amateisgal.I
ll be finding a lot more of these coins, as we are taking apart all of the dryers, one by one.

I made this up for a holiday party last weekend. It's a lovely sheer wool. The pattern is probably a late 30's Butterick (7879). The buckle I borrowed from my Civil War collection.

 

[Cicero]

Very nice dress ColeV48.
Well made, nice fit and it looks superbe on you.

[Faith Rudd]

I agree, that is beautifully made! Wow! The colour is just perfect too.

 

[W-D Forties]

I REALLY want that dress - but in the fabric with the birds!!!
