Enjoy a Spring afternoon of cuisine refreshments, conversation with the panache designers and models, receive educational materials about HIV/AIDS and surprises!!! I will be featuring some of the designs I have shown you on this blog.

Vogue 2817- top

It took me forever to add this trim. I also lined it so I wouldn't have to wear a cami underneath. It still needs to be hemmed and around the arms and at the bottom. I have other tops and skirts I have started and not finished. I will update next time with pics of those projects and hopefully I will be done with these. Getting ready for another fashion show!!!! It's crazy!!!

Vogue 8546 Jacket, McCalls 5523 view A

I know I have done the skirt twice, but I like it!!! what can I say. Anyway, I love this hooded jacket and it has side pockets, I will take more pics later to show more detail. I am adding trim onto the jacket because I don't like the serge stitch showing on the outside of the hood , still needed to add a zipper to the skirt and hem everything. I will probably make this jacket again in the fall.

Vogue 8278- adjusted to a long tunic

I just pinned the pleats in the front and the sides are sewn yet. In addition, I still need to add interfacing or bias tape. I think I am going to use bias tape. Interfacing inside of georgette looks very home sewn.
