over the weekend i got to enjoy a wonderful trip to the fabric store without my 1.5 year old. since the ambiance is a bit lacking at fabric depot when they have their big sales. i knew to que up my iphone with some good music, but not something i would end up singing along with, so i choose one of my favorite bands, m83. i bought $85 worth of fabric that i hope to make some new spring clothes for myself and florence. i sometimes daydream about selling some of my pieces, but just haven’t been able to find the time to make more than one. hopefully, once flu season is over we will stop getting sick and i’ll be able to set up an etsy store.

the shirt is based on a dress pattern from this japanese sewing book. if i make another one i would make it about an inch or two longer. i have a longer torso than all the pretty little petite girls in the book.
