Long awaited photos of the vintage jumper

First a custom made crochet hook organizer ordered at a craft show For the baby's jumper - navy blue baby cord with a lining and trim from cotton, Dena Designs, bought at the LQS, Seams Like Home. I also have covered buttons from a vintage kit and vintage lace on the hem.

Still here

Nothing new, life has been in the way of sewing much, the quilt is being pieced in sections. I have Vogue 8511 in mind for an upcoming benefit we are planning on attending in purple ponte de roma knit. I really like that pattern and I couldn't find a bad review of it, the pieces for the princess bodice virtually match the Simplicity 2473 I made two versions of last year, so I think it will work fine for me. Being ponte, I will still use a zipper, but the hems can be machine made and seam finishes simple, speeding up the construction. I also have a vintage jumper for little girl on the ironing board already cut out, waiting on me and some time. Please let me get some soon :)
