Fall Clothes part 1


Pattern: Figgy's Banyan Tee and Tunic


Fabric: Girl Charlee Fox Family Cotton Jersey Blend Knit Fabric (bought last fall) and old recycled orange knit hoodie. Here it is the fox fabric in a different colorway.

The stretch on the fabric was not what the pattern required so I added a panel down the front with a pleat at the neck to make it roomy enough. I also lengthened the sleeves and recycled the orange binding at to neck. The hem threw me for a loop and it sat unfinished for a week.  As I finished it she declared her love for the hem.

She was tired but this shows the shape of the hem. Mike and I agreed this is the Dorothyiest shirt we could think of.

Also I wanted her to wear leggings instead of yoga pants while I took a picture.

"Why? You wear yoga pants a lot". Touche'

More clothes in the finish pile and a winter coat... See you soon!
