Love the knit top on Monday 18th - where did you get the fabric from? It looks great made into a top and is a prefect match for the black wool skirt.

Sharon said...

Hi Emma, I purchased the fabric from Pitt Trading back in 2011, and it will be long gone by now.

What great photos - so nice to see Roscoe taking centre stage :). A beautiful selection of garments - you have certainly co-ordinated all your sewing efforts over the years to great effect. Beats trying to find things that are in the right colours in RT.

All lovely outfits Sharon. It must be a joy for you to open your wardrobe every morning and see so many garments that coordinate and work so well together. You must put a lot of thought and planning into your sewing.

Happy belated birthday! I love the green jacket. It's so hard to beat Burda's styling on jackets, and they come alive so well in the chartreuse.
