...and I realized I never posted the Choir photo from last week...
Jeans from Coldwater, I think, an ancient poly tricotene Evan Piccone blazer, a hot pink version of Simplicity 2603 and a scarf that got several compliments.
It's the remnant from the Jiffy Pop Top. It was a very interesting fabric...a blue poly knit with the lame sort of printed on. Sort of. So I had this 3" bit along the selvages that were not lamanized, for want of a better term, so I just squared up the bit left at the end...it was at least 60" wide...and, bingo, a silver/navy blue scarf, which works great when gray and navy are in the choir line up. :-)
And, when I got home, a package was awaiting. I got 3 yards of a rayon/lycra jersey in a spot on perfect shade of gray...not too dark, not too light...for the cardigan I was going to make from the fabric I inadvertently cut into two tops.
The really significant thing about that order is that I only ordered one piece of fabric. Which safely arrived WITHOUT a traveling buddy.
Changing paradigms... ;-)
Your scarf looks lovely ~ I can see why you received comments wearing this outfit ... J
