Practice Slip

Oops, really terrible picture. Sorry. As you can see however, it is enormous. I need to find a different pattern or draft my own.
I'm going to monkey around with it some more when I come back from Florida, but as of right now, I would probably fit someone with a 36 bust or larger. Lol, that's not me!


Have a good 4th of July weekend!

Next project

Here is my next (several) project(s):
The full slip pattern is from the estate sale, so I bought some tricot online and lace for lingerie. I bought black, beige and white. I already have a black half slip, so I want to use my free time this summer to make half and full slips in all three colors. I subscribe to the theory that this is easier than lining every dress or skirt I make, and is much more washable, so the clothes themselves will last longer.
I need to hem the pants, add some fasteners above the zipper and make the hole for the tie to go through in the wrap top. I'll probably finish it all tomorrow!

On Thursday we're off to Florida for the 4th of July, so I doubt I'll be sewing, I'll be coating myself with sunscreen instead!
