My friend’s son has to go to school today dressed as a Victorian child. She needed a waistcoat, so I made one from some Stash fabric
I cut it out in both red and black fabric, and sewed it up so it is reversible. He can choose which colour he wants on the outside.
*I tried to read Stendhal’s classic in French when I was a student, in order to impress a boyfriend. My O level language skills were not up to it. Wrong choice of book [and bloke, for that matter!]
Super waistcoat! I love Victorian days at school... although I was always Edwardian - easier to manage in the skirts. Your title didn't say 'Stendhal' to me, it said 'Stade Toulousain'!

What an education it is, having erudite followers like you, Floss!
DeleteI love it when I can reach into "my stash" and come out with material for a project.... especially when it is a gift like you have made.
ReplyDeleteThanks Meggie - you've made some great things yourself [like that 'pyramid' mouse pincushion!]
DeleteBeen there, done that, in French, you didn't miss too much! Waistcoat much better use of time! Elves also excellent use of time- too wit to woo- unless you're Jo!
