McCall 7445 - In the Orange

McCall 7445

These pants were made early spring, but I didn't get decent pictures of me wearing them until now. I first talked about them here and here.

This fabric is another winner!  It's a beefy polyester stretch woven suiting that is perfect for these pants.  I love the drape and how it slightly falls away from the body.

Trending now are pj's like suits.  Many celebrities are wearing them.  It's funny how "trashy" fashion becomes Haute Couture fashion in a matter of a few years.

Rihanna wannabees wore pj pants to the grocery store in a regular basis.  This year many designers are making fashion statement across the globe with their pajama like suits.

Anyway the top I'm wearing is ready to wear from JC Penny's.  It's light, airy, and floats with the slightest movement.  It has that "pj appeal", without looking like your headed for a good night's slumber.  So this is one way I will wear my orange pants this season.

Happy Sewing!

Loose Ends

I have a few loose ends to tie up.  Many finished projects were never photographed with me wearing them.  I still have several reviews to write.   There are several summer project partially completed.  Good thing these projects can be layered and worn during the fall.  That's the summer sewing update.

Fall is here and I do have some projects in mind.  Included in the list is my test of  drafting a few of Rhonda's sleeves.  I already drafting two of them:  the shirred wrist sleeve and the cowl draped sleeve.  So soon I will post those tests starting with me drafting the sleeves using Rhonda's instructions.  Also, fringes and polka dots are on trend.  I like them and want to make something that includes them.   That's all I have for now.

Stay Tuned!
