I looked and looked for the turquoise, but no luck--all gone. I couldn't find the same shade in a different button either. But while I was there, I stocked up on some bright colors. At Pursleys the prices are so good. Average price of these you see were .05 cents each. So ten for .50--not bad, eh? Compared to Joanns and Hancocks--a real deal!
So, I went with these:
(I also picked up 2 yds fabric while there for a top for DGD.)
I'll still be on the look-out for turquoise, and if I find some, I'll replace these.
So, here's the wearable dress:
Later yesterday, I cut out a pair of black linen One Seams longer capri length. That pattern is a TNT now for me, therefore, it sews up really fast. They would be DONE except that my bobbin thread ran out as I was getting ready to fold under and sew the waist elastic down. Since it was time to feed the critters, I decided not to take time to wind the bobbin, so those will get finished (I hope) today. These will go with my Vogue B/W blouse and the Louise cutting loose jacket I finished sometime back.
So, today I get to update my fabric tracking with some sewn and 2 yds bought. Not sure whats up next for me.
I like the red buttons on the dress. Wow! you scored some great colors and no, you can't beat the price.
ReplyDeleteThe red buttons look great.That is the nicest summer dress -looks really cool for the heat that is here now.
ReplyDeleteI am so jealous of .05 buttons. If I were you I would get a boat load of them there. We used to have this great warehouseplace in the next town that had rolls of fantastic interfacing 60 " wide, cones of sewing thread cheap, fabric rolls etc and then one day it disappeared witout warning. If I could go back in time I would load up like it was the last time ever. mssewcrazy
