Cheering On: Denim skirt
http://cheeringon.blogspot.com/2008/10/denim-skirt.html
Monday, October 6, 2008. I have sadly been lacking enough denim skirts and decided that now was the time to rectify it. Well, actually a few months ago was the time, but it takes time to do something about it. ;) This is the second denim skirt I made over the summer, so I'll have to post pics of the first later. Professional courtesy dictates that I mention that I used Simplicity 3688. But the similarities are so distant that you can hardly recognize it! Monday, October 06, 2008 9:03:00 AM. In My Father'...

Cheering On: The first baby blanket
http://cheeringon.blogspot.com/2008/11/first-baby-blanket.html
Tuesday, November 18, 2008. The first baby blanket. My little nephew needed warmer blankets for nighttime, so Mom offered to make him some. It really was quite funny putting together the combinations with the fabric we already had. We wanted them fairly quick, simple, warm enough, and bigger than normal baby blankets so he can use them for several years. I like teddy-bears, but they have to be done. I really think that it will be my favorite! We LOVE the blanket! Tuesday, November 18, 2008 12:54:00 PM.

Cheering On: Summer Blouses - two of three
http://cheeringon.blogspot.com/2008/09/summer-blouses-two-of-three.html
Saturday, September 27, 2008. Summer Blouses - two of three. I've wanted to try this pattern. For too long now, so I finally picked out some good "mock-up" fabric and set to work. It's not 100% cotton unfortunately, but it's what I had. I raised the split neckline some and I think I'm happy the way it looks. I chopped several inches off before hemming it, otherwise it would have looked much like a sixties dress and that is not the look I wanted. What else have you made? Oh, I remember! Love you too, sis!

Cheering On: New Butterick Pattern
http://cheeringon.blogspot.com/2008/11/new-butterick-pattern.html
Saturday, November 29, 2008. I picked this up yesterday while I was out and about. It's starting to creep up to the top section of my to-do list; I'm liking it more and more. And to think that I almost decided I didn't like it! You're right, it grows on one! Saturday, November 29, 2008 9:26:00 AM. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). The second baby blanket.

Cheering On: What do these calico prints all have in common?
http://cheeringon.blogspot.com/2008/10/what-do-these-calico-prints-all-have-in.html
Saturday, October 18, 2008. What do these calico prints all have in common? They accessorize three different takes on this pattern. I have always loved wide leg pants. My sister's and I have made several pairs over the years and received many compliments. Paired with the right top, they are dressier than jeans, but work well for festivals, hiking and traveling, too. Flannel pj's fit well under them for extra warmth in the winter, too. Scheduled posts to highlight each take. Until I return.

Cheering On: Wide Leg Pants take 1
http://cheeringon.blogspot.com/2008/10/wide-leg-pants-take-1.html
Monday, October 20, 2008. Wide Leg Pants take 1. I always thought I should try that slanted pocket version, but did not get around to it until now. I already knew I liked the fit of the pants, so why did it take me so long to make this view? Probably that little thing called time. but, anyways, they're done now. Tan top-stitching adds a finishing touch, but it was a pain to do. :). I've tagged you for the six random things on my blog! Monday, October 20, 2008 12:34:00 PM. Oh, and cute pants too!

Cheering On: Summer Blouses - one of three
http://cheeringon.blogspot.com/2008/09/summer-blouses-one-of-three.html
Saturday, September 27, 2008. Summer Blouses - one of three. When I saw Simplicity 2936. While I was on vacation, I had to pick it up! It has the look of a peasant blouse without the extra bulk of gathers at the neckline. I did raise the neckline to adhere to my standards of modesty, but the rest of the blouse was left as is. I used a very lightweight "scraps" that I had in my stash and made this one as a test. It's a good thing that I did, because it's slightly too big for me! A Green Eyed Irish Lass.
