Simple Summer Shift

It's quite nice to sew something very simple after dealing with heavy duty outdoor canvas and welting and such.

Simplicity 4945 is a pattern I bought years ago but have only just rediscovered in some recent reorganization work. I bought it to make cold weather clothes, but it worked out nicely for the turquoise and brown plaid seersucker fabric I found half off at Jo-Ann's not too long ago.

I first saw the fabric during a huge sale, but there was only a yard and a half left on the bolt. Then a week or so later I was browsing and saw a brand new bolt sitting there, calling to me.

So, of course, I had to give it a home. And it is most certainly going to join me in Boston as well.
