No Really, It Has To Stop.


Damn sewing machine will not leave me alone. 
"Come play with me." It says. "Alright" I think. "One last sewing project". I really have to get back to my jewellery table.


Winter is months away but I seem to have a whole new winter wardrobe.


Pattern for this was morphed from the robe below*. 


*Mustache not included.

I swear next post will be jewellery.

That side closure is sort of Napoleonic.

Maybe you can copy some of the poses on


the packet for your next shoot....

What? ... no mustache? grrl + dog could knit you one.

You know, you could have your own one man fashion show. You're accumulating quite a fabulous collection of stylish threads plus with all of your bags and jewellery, you're all set.

I <3 men who sew! Away with all the girly dresses, bring in the tough fabrics and masculine designs. Don't stop sewing please!

Great look! Sewing allows you to stay *ahead* of the seasons and have runway looks *now*. You don't have to wait!

Man! What you can't do a bathrobe! Love it.

I think those oh-so-suave guys on the pattern package would approve.

Cherie said...

Top top ... brilliant as always!!

I swear the guy in the anchor printed robe is just too much! Do you think it's made from flannel?

Buffy Leigh said...

Wow! I'd love to have this for my man. If only he could sew too.

We are lucky to be able to buy patterns already made. When we plan to go to live in Menorca, I knew it was none in shops there. So I quickly go on * London education authority * to learn how to make pattern your self. Very lucky. In menorca, ladies was cutting all the same patterns in Burda magasine. All the same shapes of garments...

I have nothing against jewelry, but this is great. I wish you'd post a shot of your pattern..
