Tomato Two-Piece

It's not quite full-on tomato season in Vermont, but my tomatoes are certainly growing. Lots of blossoms and a few little green fruits. 

Here I am, showing off my growing tomatoes (and potatoes) while wearing a tomato two piece. Too much?

Batik Drafters Grid Skirt

Given the price of the Drafters Grid Dress pattern, you knew I was going to make something else from it before too long!  Plus I really love my first Drafters Grid Dress project, but it's definitely a statement piece, and I was hoping for something more wearable for every day.

Denim Taylor Trousers

You know a pair of pants is good if you wear it for a 26,000-step day in NYC and are still looking fresh and feeling comfortable!

Roberts Wood Drafter's Grid Dress

 Finally finished this dress and am so pleased with it! It's big, it's bright, it's twirly! 

It was a beast of a project and I have things to say about it!

Sweater Knit Sigrid Coat

I know I've been making spring and summer dresses recently, but the reality of the weather situation here in Vermont is that multiple layers of wool are still required at least every other day.

Deadstock Wool Taylor Trousers

I know, I know, another pair of Taylor Trousers? And a wool pair with spring right around the corner? 

Yes, but we just got another inch of snow last night, so there is still time for these winter pants.

Tim's Two Piece Setacular

Tim had a boys trip to the beach last month, so I made him a ridiculous two-piece set for beach bumming, and then made him take photos of it in the snow.

 A coat! And it's still winter! 

I'm so happy to have finished this while I can still wear it.

Muppet-y Wool Loren Jackets

 My sister referred to these fabrics as "Muppet-y" and I think that's a pretty accurate description.
