Swing Era.
My latest project.
Remarkably, I found a 40’s pattern that matches my measurements really well…I love the look of this era, but I’m afraid that the style doesn’t really suit me, but we’ll see… I bought this pattern a while ago, and haven’t really landed on a fabric that I could see making this in. Then I was out with Lauren picking out her apron fabrics and I can across this:
It appealed to me because of it’s vintage look, but most of all that it was $1.99/m. In fact I was going to use it for something completely different, I had it picked out with this wool tweed:
For a separate project, then realized that they would look really nice together, and it would be in keeping with the 40’s era.
Its fun when things come together nicely.
I’ll let you know how things turn out.
That looks like quite a challenge to me! All those pleats! Have fun.
