This weekend
was hot, hot, hot. On Sunday it was thankfully cooler so we went to the park, and did a little sewing. The ivory leggings are made from a bamboo knit and are silky soft. Fabric purchased from Discount Fabrics in Berkeley.

Because I had to
try again. After looking at some patterns last night I tried the dancing skirt again. Thanks to M. for her help again today. (if they look the same to you, please don’t tell me)

A skirt for dancing
made without a pattern……. perhaps not the best idea. .

Weekend.
A couple of haircuts, some great Korean food (too hungry to take a picture when the food came), and a little sewing for our neighbor.

Yoga Pants, Take 2
This is my second attempt using the Yoga Pants pattern (I used a pair of pants that M. already had to draft the pattern). I decided to try using a non-stretchy corduroy but with a knit waistband. Much like a pair of pants that I own and love. I am very pleased with the result and may just be making pair #. Do 4 year old boys wear yoga pants?
