Calgon...

Do they even still make Calgon? How many of us actually still remember those commercials? Am I showing my age here? haha

I stayed up all night working on the cutest little dress only for it to bomb out in the end. I hate it. Completely detest it. As soon as the snow subsides I'm bee-lining it to the fabric store to pick up some comparable fabric so that I can transform it into something else since I still love the bodice. Hopefully I can still salvage it...

Today I worked on shirts. Lots and lots of shirts. And while I was typing this I suddenly had an outfit epiphany and must start work on it immediately following this post.

But before I get back to the grind, I will unveil today's outfit. I just finished the shirt today and I have to say that it's downright magical! It has a fraternal twin - the straps are a bit different and there is shirring at the bottom as well as the top. Both are super versatile and will go with almost every pair of pants, capris or skirt you can pull out of the drawer. Plus, it's super lightweight so it'll handle anything the summer can throw your way (not that I would know anything about that right now). I made a couple in ivory and a few in a light pink floral print - some in 18-24 months and a couple in 4-5T.
