***UPDATE*** I posted pictures of me wearing these items at the end of this post...
Every year as I pack for our annual trip to California... I feel this need to make myself new summer clothes... This year as things were coming together, I began to notice a definite theme... Nautical...
|
It all started with these shorts... and this vintage sailboat and anchor fabric... |
|
I used this pattern... Super cute fit... |
|
This vintage bamboo fabric told me it needed to be a top... |
|
Nothing says Summer like a shirt dress... The buttons are from a recent find, and add the perfect touch... |
|
The pattern... not so exciting... To keep it more current I shortened the hem by 2inches... |
|
To make this top a little more exciting, I added a rope belt... |
|
I used the top version... but made it sleeveless... |
With that done... I've now got to finish packing... Can't wait to wear my new pieces... I'm sure they are going to be new summer favorites...
Happy Sewing!
