summer blouse
The other new book I got was Weekend Sewing by Heather Ross, projects you can do in a weekend. I made the Summer Blouse from the book. It was very simple and came together with no trouble at all. I haven't sewn many clothes for me successfully, so I was really happy with this. It was so easy to follow the directions. The patterns (included in the book) are also basic enough that they lend themselves to variation, which I love.
I used Ikea fabric with some red linen scraps as trim. The linen isn't that great for this use, though, because it frays, but it's so nice and soft. I also did 3/4 length sleeves.

Also, your blog's new math-centric verification process seems perhaps to be a little out of character with your blog's probable audience. It would be more appropriate to have potential commentators translate a little Latin? Or name a 13th century composer?
heehee, don't tempt me.
