Summer Clothes I Made and Never Posted

For this first day of Autumn I thought I'd show some of the clothes I made this summer and never posted.  There is a reason none of these things were ever posted.  They're dull.  Wearable but meh.

This is a peasant blouse that was fine, but I thought was a little too loose.  I made a belt out of the scraps to go with it but isn't in the photo.  I might get out my gatherer foot and run a couple of rows of elastic thread through the waist...maybe...yawn.

This is a pima cotton sleeveless top.  It was ok but not worth a post.

A chocolate brown pencil skirt.  Perfectly wearable but hardly of interest.  I didn't even bother getting a decent photo.

And then there was this.  I had this pattern lying out and my husband spotted it and encouraged me to make it.  I warned him that pattern envelopes lie and that the little line drawing was a more accurate depiction.  No shaping --it would look like a bag.  I made it anyway --out of the green seersucker.  Have you ever made something, put it on, looked in the mirror, and simply said, "Blah!"  That's what happened.  I modeled it for Husband who agreed that it looked like an old bag.  But he helped salvage it by suggesting I cut it off for a tunic top.  I did and it worked.  No, I'm not bothering to get a photo of it.  You'll just have to take my word for it --you've seen enough boring clothes.

Thankfully Fall is here and with it comes more interesting clothes.  I always find sewing clothes for Fall and Winter more exciting.
