"Share in Style" ~ Black and White

I made this dress awhile back and for some reason I had never blogged about it.

I thought it would be the perfect garment to share for this "Share in Style".
The wool scarf is a RTW and I just love the fabric design!

I used a Ponte de Roma knit fabric and the weight is perfect for our winter weather!

Share in Style ~ Shoes








My project for this Share in Style is truly a very simple, not elegant in any way, but an outfit that is so very much required
 these days :)

I found this fun, bright, colourful
 "flip flop/ flower" print ~ in  flannel ~ my favourite,
 and thought It would be perfect for pj's.




The pants and sleeves are a heavy fleece.... so comfortable!!
A perfect weight for this cooler weather that we've been getting
and  I know I will appreciate the warmth of this fabric on cold winter days.

I have been doing a little bit of Sewing...



...over the last few months ~ I've made some small projects (little girl cloths), some home dec and a good start on  McCall's 6027 ~ but haven't posted these projects ~ I'll throw in a post on these now and then!

I  just finished my Barcelona white Blouse and  love it.  I also made a pair of PJ bottoms for my sons girlfriend.

Today I'm only posting about the pj's. They were a fun and very quick project.
Megan  was very pleased with her pj's ~ which made me happy!

I used Butterick 4406 and made them with flannel fabric.
The top is a RTW top that matched nicely! and Megan likes purple.

They are being displayed on "Annabelle", my Uniquely You dress form I bought in Oct. 
I absolutely love her :) It was so nice using her when making the Barcelona blouse.

I am now in baby mode..making receiving blankets, burp blankets,  blankies, bibs and also making all these items  in a 
mini version ........for Ella's dolls.

I have to say I am having way too much fun making these ~ especially when Ella helps to pick out the fabric.

Have a wonderful day!
