My parents just didn't understand and wouldn't get it for me. <br /><br />The other toy I wanted really badly (and didn't get) was a Barbie sewing machine. That might explain the eight machines currently in my sewing room.<br /><br />Ken looks very happy sunbathing in his suit with the giant dogs.

I had some silky cotton batiste in black, but alas, no black interfacing. I couldn't pick said interfacing up until after dropping my machine for a tune-up and cleaning (while I will be away on business this week). I'm considering top-stitching the shirt with a contrast thread or maybe running some decorative stitching down the front parallel to the buttons. Maybe ivory?? Not sure...may need to snoop shop for some inspiration. Any thoughts?Sandihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04890008405738438915noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1991166428290808171.post-65945314270947401032011-02-20T17:22:01.549-05:002011-02-20T17:22:01.549-05:00Oh how I love your silly fabric, so much that I ma...Oh how I love your silly fabric, so much that I may have to get myself some similarly scrumptious cotton lawn.<br /><br />And your Ken & your poochies are too cute, just too cute.a little sewinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18086285440873869055noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1991166428290808171.post-6219767267147994512011-02-20T14:10:39.371-05:002011-02-20T14:10:39.371-05:00Peter, you look smashing in Negroni 3!

I have no problem wearing retro kiddie prints as clothing and I'm in my 40s... I made a summer shirt for my husband (soon to be 50, gasp!) with a Heather Ross beach scene fabric. My grandmother was totally baffled by the idea that an adult would choose to wear something 'so childish', whereas my husband absolutely loves it.Nathaliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11570545194570856281noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1991166428290808171.post-44343264617060086732011-02-20T10:57:54.580-05:002011-02-20T10:57:54.580-05:00Hey, I like the material.
