Summers here are not productive
Dec. 22, 2017: There's so much to do and the weather is so nice that I haven't made much time for sewing.

My last make of the summer was another version of my skirt hack from the By Hand London Anna dress pattern.
The fabric was the oldest of my stash. I bought it right before Bon Bon Atelier in Westport closed (and right after I took sewing lessons in 2013). The purple cotton is actually made of red and navy thread. I didn't have much of it, 2 yards by 44" wide, so I was limited to a shirt or skirt. And I didn't really have anything that matched because I don't wear navy. While I was making the cherry shirt I noticed they went rather well together. So it finally became a garment.
