When we get too preoccupied, we tend to forget what we said we would do. It's not a good thing, but it happens none the less. I've remembered a bit too late (but late is better than never) that I said in my blog titled "What a Girl Wore to Two Weddings" (May 22, 2010 post) I would post full pictures of a dress I made for my daughter for a wedding when she was around 9 years old. Well, I'm finally keeping my word (lol).
The dress is a girl's size 8/10 and has a vintage look. My daughter looked really lovely in it.

The reversible tunic below was in response to the blog I posted last week (Stretch Your Dollar - Buy Reversible, November 27, 2010). My daughter wanted me to make her a hoodie. Due to time constraints, we agreed to my making a top for her. Well, I decided to try making a reversible top and ended up with a tunic that reaches almost mid-thigh. It will be good for the winter season due to it's thickness from two layers of clothe.

I will be experimenting with making another reversible garment, maybe a reversible pant with the same blue and black fabrics. I bought quite a lot of both since they were on sale. You can check out www.wix.com/skclothes/SK for other SK Clothes designs. Till next blog!
Helene Clarkson has designed clothes for the traveling woman made from easy to care for fabrics that are reversible! The number of clothing pieces needed for the get away is cut in half. Just love the thought that went into Helene's collection... don't you? Helene Clarkson's website is: www.heleneclarkson.com.
I have a thing for clutches now. Why? They're not large in size, therefore I can't pack unecessary items. They're sleek and feminine. I've been making clutches made of recycled fabrics with wrist bands, and creating different designs and textures for interest. They're the next best thing to crossbody bags.
