Simplicity 1920 - Thanks Blogger Sisters

Today I wore my Simplicity 1920 top.  I took the suggestions of my lovely blogging sisters and wore white pants with it.   You don't see my sandals but they are gold wedges, which were a nice compliment.  I hate taking bathroom pictures, but I didn't have anyone to take a picture for me.   I liked my outfit so much today, I did the dreaded bathroom shot. 



Happy creating!

    great looking outfit!, looks like you have your blouse on an ajustable dressform, do you find those to be true to size? Hancock's has them on sale for $99.99 & was thinking about getting one

      I think that is how much I paid for mine from Tuesday Morning. Its an adjustable, so you can take your measurements and dial your measurements on the dress form. It is okay, but I would love to have one of those special order ones that is my actual size.

    Isn't it wonderful to make something and then feel so good in it?!! The sandals sound like the perfect accessory. I bet you were on fire all day long:)

      Thanks Robin. Believe it or not its a cotton from Walmart, at $2 per yard. My Walmart is so hit or miss. But I think I got lucky on this one.
