Favorite Pants Completed

Yes indeed! I have completed three pair of pants with my favorite pattern, McCall's 6901 . I think I can sew them with my eyes close now. The fits is always perfect for me. I don't think you could go wrong with a Palmer/Pletsch fitting instructions. So with that said, yes you guessed it. Now I am getting ready to start on the navy blue pair. All the Gabardine fabric I purchased were through Amazon from the Online Fabric Store. The quality of this fabric is wonderful as well as affordable as you can see below. I was in Sears, tempted to buy a pair,  same great quality, nice fit, standard length but listed at $40.

Trust me, I have been creating...

I have really. Although seems like I have forgotten about my little sewing share space here but I haven't. I have been creating all kinds of knitwear and some creating some doll fashions.

Well, I made another baby blanket and forget to take a pictures but it my all time, go to, super easy blanket it knit up. I shared it here when I knitted one for my son co-worker. I used the same yarn but in this color . The new mother and her family just loved it. They expressed how everyone just love the blanket. I also have finished my dress that I shared here but still haven't worn it, lol. I also knitted a pink and green card...
