I have to admit that sewing keeps me sane. A lot of the time, I am working on quilts but I do have some fabric now for dresses. Dresses go in waves for me because I seem to make a few or a lot at the same time. They all seem to destroy themselves at the same time. Or they have a fence help! I love my long cotton dresses but I decided I wished something shorter for the heat here.
I pulled out a very old Vogue pattern and put two chemises together for myself. This one.
And one in red.
They work well for work. I had a black cashmere cardigan. They work well for the house. I could put a pair of pumps with them and go to a wedding or a party. There is something to be said for having a few chemise style dresses in the wardrobe. They roll well into a backpack too! Just comfy.
