Some sewing

The fabric store where I work just started carrying the Colette line of patterns and I am in the midst of finishing a model garment for display.
The pattern is called Eclair. I have only the hem left, and I am pretty happy with the results.
The main fabric is Kona Crush from Robert Kaufman, and the contrast fabric is Diamond Mine from Anna Maria Horner's Little Folks line.
It'll be the perfect thing to wear when Anna Maria Horner comes to visit Treadle! She's coming for a book signing in a couple of weeks, and I can't wait to meet her.

  4. I'm so bummed that I'll be working when AMH comes to Treadle, but enough about that - look at your beautiful dress! It looks great on you - you should totally wear it when AMH visits.
