I am almost finished with the black dress and I plan to start a fall transitional dress tomorrow, since Mike will be in Houston and only the baby will be home. I have the fabric picked out, the vintage pattern(s) picked out, so I will try to cut out and assemble the basics tomorrow as he should be gone from 4:30 am to about 10:00 pm. I am using a Moda cotton that is from the "allspice" line, I think, robin's egg blue with rose flowers, brown, olive and tan leaves, etc. I consider it transitional since we are hot here until the end of October. I have 2 vintage Simplicitys, same basic dress, one is a 12 and the other is an 18, but I like the collar on the 12, so I may rob that detail and incorporate into the 18.

A blouse I forgot to post sometime back, either S 4076 or S4176.

Gotta go so I can iron clothes for Mike.
