Pattern and Patterns

Starting to sew again... In Melbourne I tried to buy "the PERFECT shirt"... No such thing. So I decided to make it... got the pattern... got the fabric... oooh, I like this fabric too! I'll get it as well... I think I'll just make this fabric up first... I'll make it into that top I always make... it's so comfortable for work!



...I must remember to make up that shirt pattern... next...

This is a GREAT journal page! The drawing is fantastic -- such detail! -- and the writing is super. I'll bet it was a lot of fun to do, too. :-)

I love this - all the detail of the pattern and the extras - scissors and pincushion. Interesting that you have been able to post a picture - I've been trying all weekend and still can't.

Come on then - do your messy sink - then I won't be the only one to have drawn a 'less than'manicured' version :)and thank you for visiting my blog.

Thanks for sharing them.

Great drawing! You have a great style, it's wonderful to look at all the details. Love the drawing of your Mum too especially the side on view.

This is wonderful....you draw every thing in sight...and it's all so fun to look at. This would make a great illustration in one of those sewing magazines. Love the one of you mom watching TV too!

I just love this sketch! I love to sew, also, but I never have time. You spent so much patience on the pattern detail - it's delightful!
