Very lovely, manwariel! Well done.

I am going to do a variation of the same pattern in purples and golds. I have the muslin ready to cut out for the client to try on before I cut the main fabrics.

OK, these dresses have been finished for a long time... But yesterday I dressed up two friends for an historical "Saturnalia" celebration. One wore my "Lady with Unicorn" outfit ca. 1505, the other was transformed into a Venetian courtesan ca. 1560. And they both looked absolutely stunning! Best models I've had so far.

I hope to get a picture of all three of us together along with a Roman Catholic cardinal. His outfit was fantastic.

Absolutely gorgeous. I love green and rarely find decent green fabrics here.

Just wanted to tell you all just how freakin' talented you are. I may not be a seamstress...at least not yet, I love LOVE love dropping into this thread periodically and ooing and awing over the beautiful creations you post.

A Sleep Sack I made for my 9 Month Granddaughter. I took one of her Sleep Sacks, made a pattern from it. She has 2 I made her that will get her through another month. This one is a 12-18 month size. Doctors reccommend that Babies wear a Sleep Sack with their jammies rather than have a Blanket that could strangle them as they move about in their cribs.

I saw how the Original Store Bought Sleep Sack was made and then drafted the pattern, using a Grocery Bag. There is a Seperating Zipper that is sewn in to open from Bottom to Top. That is when Mom changes Baby's diaper, the baby is still covered. There is a panel sewn onto where the zipper is to keep from tangling in the baby's jammies. I used single Fold bias tape to finish the neck and arm openings. All is sewn and serged. I use Blizzard fleece. From 3/4 to 1 yard, depending on what size I am making. I made 2 as a gift for my Niece in California, who is due 30 December. She is having a girl.

It's finally done!

Not going to lie, I'm pretty proud of this. Everything but the bodice was free handed (the bodice was modified from a simplicity pattern). The lion pin was found at an antique store and I made the necklace last night.

Lovely.  I love pink and green (especially that green!) as a color combo. 

[Magpie Flynn]

thank you Lady Meg!

This is the fastest I ever created an outfit. Also I've probably been watching too much Beauty and the Beast
