Ever wondered what would have become of you if your parents never met? It took the specific sex cells from my mother and father to create me biologically.

These pajamas took me about a month to completely finish but collectively only several hours. I had to do significantly less seam ripping this time! It helps if you actually read the instructions. I used Cotton Steel fabric from their Cat Lady collection. Called Kitten Mittens in navy and the Lakeside Pajamas.

SHARING MY LOVE OF SEWING and OTHER HANDMADE GOODNESS.

My costume is all done and looking forward to seeing the new year in tonight! The basque binding went back on easily and the shape reflects the skirt waist line much better. I added a sequin trim by cutting a strip from another great charity shop find! Very festive I thought! Though cutting it up makes a bit of a mess! Next I tackled cutting the dress into a skirt , I put the dress on and drew round round my waist with tailors chalk pencil.
