Still got the blues…

Time for some blues.
This baby is made from a second hand find, a striped intense blue/turqouise cotton.
I put some white rick-rack ribbons around the neck just to match the snow… can you see the falling snow in the picture?

This might be my favourite…
The found fabric wasn’t straight in any direction and we had quite a struggle to make the pieces work together.
There is still a hole in the side where there wasn’t enough fabric- so I guess she’ll stick with me.
May we live happily ever after…

I wasn’t sure of this mustardy stripy darling at first… how could I be so wrong.
Darn cute.
I love how the stripes go all the way around, covering the whole back and leaves a yellow sort of calm area at the front.
The fabric is a nice sturdy cotton.
My sister Jenny took the picture and the bag actually contains a bagpipe!

I think this fabric used to be a curtain… yet not bleached at all so I could be wrong.
I found it in a bag of fabric at a yardsale. Lucky me!
I love the combo of yellow and grey!
Reminds me of a cartoon prisoner… those stripes I guess…
The yellow suitcase is a perfect match!

It´s hard to tell from this picture but the pattern on this fabric is houndstooth. I use it as my “powersuit”. Unfortunatley the zipper broke just when I put it on after a doctors appointment, and I had to fix it with a safetypin. So i’m not sure this dress is on my side anymore- how could she do that to me!?
