I did it again&#8211;we were invited to a holiday party last Saturday night and I spent all day Friday and Saturday making an outfit to wear (this blouse with the black velvet jeans in the previous post).

I made these velvet jeans with Burda 8085. I love them! They fit great and sewed up beautifully. I used cotton velvet. I didn’t make ANY changes to the pattern. They look just as good as RTW jeans that sell for over $100. That’s all!

Ta-ta for now!

Don’t ever think that fashion is inconsequential! As well as reflecting the times in which we live, fashion speaks volumes about who we are and what we want to project into the world. This is especially true of those who don’t care how they dress—that’s the strongest message of all.
I love this dress that Michelle Obama [...]]]></description>

I started with Simplicity 4422, which, unfortunately has been discontinued. You can still purchase it on the Simplicity website, or, use [...]]]></description>
