Dinomite!
I made this shirt the other day out of some old Amy Butler fabric that was on sale at Crafty Planet. This is one of my favorite prints (two other dresses in it in different colorways) and I'm sad that it is no more. The pattern is that old trusty Built By Wendy dress in the shirt version. I am really pleased with how it came out. The only thing that bugs me is I keep thinking that the front of the elastic is a little wobbly, but I'm sure that no one will notice that but me.
A word on the setting of the following images: across from where I live there is a park. Usually this is inhabited by children who are on a field trip to the Museum and the occasional hobo. Recently, however, a new creature has taken up residence....
He let me take a ride in exchange for some ice cream.
J and I are (maybe) off to the zoo? We are having a hard time coming up with things to do outside the apartment in this town. I was looking at an attractions guide for the Twin Cities and they said to go to the Mall of America (thanks but no thanks) and also to be sure to check out the skyways downtown. Are they bloody kidding me? The skyways are an attraction??? Man. Well you can only go out to eat so many times before the $$ catches up with you, so we have been scrambling to think of things that don't involve 1. restaurants, 2. sewing and buying fabric, 3. playing computer games and generally staying indoors. Trouble is, rain is forecasted for the whole weekend... Oh well.
