Friday Fashion - Mod Sister Outfits

Mod matching sister outfits (say that
three times really fast).  Both are made
from vintage patterns.

Lisa and Yvonne at the Pumpkin Patch

It was a beautiful day for a drive in the
country to pick out a perfect pumpkin.

There were so many to choose from!

Lisa is making friends with the giant spider.....Yvonne
keeps her distance.

Yvonne has made her selection.

Lisa is thinking go big or go home!

The girls enjoyed getting out to enjoy
the fall weather.

Fall - Part 2

Continuing with the fall fashion show,
we have more conventional fall outfits
here (and a little sister wife-ish).

The floral wrap skirt and both tops are from a vintage
pattern. The striped skirt I made up.  I really like
this blouse pattern as it is very versatile.  It might
need a little tailoring in the body, could be a little
slimmer.

I always like to make extra tops to expand the
Ladies' wardrobe so sewed up these simple
camisole tops from another vintage pattern.
I added a little machine embroidery to the
muslin one for a bohemian look.  They are
simple to make and can be used under jackets
without too much bulk.  They would probably
look better tucked in the skirts.

I may sew up a few more fall outfits and then
start on some holiday ones.

Still trying to get back in the swing of things
since the move (juggling to learn a new online
job too....yikes). Hopefully will be posting more
often...........

Thanks for stopping in !

Fall - Part 1

Well summer went by in a blur, mostly I remember it being
 hot, hot and oh yeah, HOT!

We are finally getting some cooler weather so I have been
sewing some fall style clothes for the MODs (as far as we
consider fall style here in Florida).

These are transitional outfits, mostly just fall colors.

Vintage patterns were used for the 2 shift
dresses and the striped skirt.  The halter
top is taken from a vintage dress pattern.

I love choosing the fabrics for the MODs.
And the mod colors really play into the
fall theme - gold, brown, orange, avocado.

I also made the pillows on the mini pallets
in the background.

Few more to show you......stay tuned.
