The shortall

This latest thing I sewed is not really appropriate for winter. I really wanted to make the overall version but I just wanted to use some leftover fabric I had, and I only had enough for this. Still...I really love how this turned out, and now, I can't wait for the warmer weather even more (even though winter is just really starting...sigh....).

Shortall I made using the pattern McCalls 7547
 My neighbours must have thought I was crazy when I was taking these pics, considering the weather. Hah!

Because this is something I would totally wear (and probably something I have worn), this is the cutest thing you've ever made. It's going to be so fab in the spring and summer.

This is the cutest! I think you can layer this with tights and a long-sleeved knit if you really want to don it in winter. haha. It's a great piece. <3

These are so cute, and well done for braving the cold to take photos! It's great you have made them now as you can just wait for warmer weather to wear them without rushing to get them ready! :)

Hope you are having a good week so far and all your Christmas preparation is going well! I'm so behind with wrapping presents - need to do more this weekend!

You did an amazing job; I love the cute little details like the band around the waist and the strap buckles.

That shortall looks fabulous Emmy. I know Canada gets COLD but is it cold enough to still wear these layered with tights and a long sleeved top and jacket. Or is this Aussie being ridiculously clueless with that statement hahaha!

 If you've been reading my blog for the past few months, then you know my love for Alabama Chanin. Here's the newest addition to my wardrobe. :) Alabama Chanin Flora Waffle Sweatshirt, worn with North Face jacket, UNIQLO pants, and Vans sneakers The organic waffle knit fabric is naturally dyed using Sappanwood sawdust, and the foliage design is hand-painted! What I love about Alabama Chanin is that many of their pieces are one-of-a-kind. PS It was my eldest's birthday when these pics were taken:) How was your weekend? Any new purchases lately?

Here are some recent shots taken with my Pentax K1000 film camera. I decided to mail my films and have them developed at Downtown Camera , and oh my gosh, you guys! Such a big difference with how they turned out. So so happy, and will be sending all my 35mm films to them from now on. (All these shots were how they were sent to me...no editing. Used Fujifilm ISO200 films.)
