Thanks to the long weekend, Roxanne and I got to sew early this week. We got a lot done, today. It was nice to get to catch up, after last weekend, when she was gone for a conference. We enjoyed our time, and put it to good use, which is fortunate as we will have to miss next weekend. She's coming up on the end of her semester. Mine is a few weeks away, still, but I can feel the downhill slide.
Tenna Kay really liked the shell and jacket we worked on last time. She liked them so much that she wore them this week. She decided no buttons on the jacket, but we did put darts in the back of both to improve the fit. I think we done good on 'em. She wore the jacket with the blue top and skirt we made earlier.
I think the pattern is interesting as there is a dart that comes from the armhole. I rather like the way that places the dart, which seems good placement for Tenna Kay, and for me too. I've made myself this jacket, but instead of a shell, I made a sleeveless dress that matched. I was going to add a picture of me in the dress, but... um... well, no. At least not the picture I found.
It is nice to be able to sew some for her, and that has been a special gift for Roxanne and I to give her mom.
