Oh, wait. Sewing. Yes, yes, sewing.

I made enough doll dresses for Etsy to set myself up for two weeks to sew whatever I wanted, and I...didn't want to sew much of anything.  That's not saying I didn't sew anything, I just...didn't...sew...much.

Sewing! For humans! To wear!

Soooo, there was a Kindergarten Round Up Thingy this evening.  I asked myself, did I want to wear something that said "I'm not like you, but I'm nice" or "I'm not like you, deal with it"? (The other option, something that said "HALLYWEEEEN 5EVA!!!!!!," was fairly easy to reject...but also negated a large part of my existing wardrobe and quite a bit of my cloth stash...)  I decided the "nice" option would be the most polite, so yesterday I grabbed some black broadcloth, Advance 8984
...and some strawberry shapes I'd randomly made from calico and the dregs of the Pellon Wonder Under I've kept forgetting (for, like, 20 years) that I have.

Force Day Sewing

Well, of course I decided to wear this shirt I made a few years ago
I used my old go-to shirt pattern, a modified New Look 6217 (fused the front pieces together), and still very proud of that pattern matching I am. *Yoda cackle*

Then I decided to make a few more things from the little bit of that cloth I had left.
