NOTE TO SELF: There will always be more fabric. Buying more fabric keeps me from doing projects I love.
Strikethrough means project is completed! Parentheses is serger color to help me plan sequence.
1. Mustard wool crepe dress (yellow)
2. For the awesome black and pink houndstooth wool I bought in New York a couple of months ago, another 80s throwback of Butterick 5520. With a peplum--lined in pink satin--and long sleeves, this will be an office power dress for days when I need a little drama in my life.
3. Red, white, and blue floral swiss dot Vintage 1973 blouse (white)
4. Vogue wrap/drape dress of Turkey turquoise and black rayon (black)
5. Silk organza plaid pleated skirt
6. Black/pink batik vintage dress
7. I spent about four months last year obsessed with Vogue 8633 but couldn't find just the right fabric for it. I found it in Montreal, but didn't get a chance to make it before it got too cold for short sleeves (though I could probably wear my ubiquitous black Burda turtleneck under it).
8. Anna Sui black/pink/turquoise silk tank.
9. Blue/orange paisley shirtdress. (light blue)
10. For the double-sided acetate polka dot fabric I bought at London Textile Warehouse at PR Weekend Philly, this Butterick 5451 wide-collared wrap dress. The body and undercolor will be cut with the light colored fabric as the right side, and the upper collar and tie with the dark colored fabric. I will add sleeves.
