Good Morning sewing loves we’re half way through the week and I don’t know about you but boy am I glad about that! Work has been a beast this week and I haven’t had a chance to really sew like I want to. Lately I’ve been so exhausted that I end up going in my studio to sleep instead of work! LOLLL Fortunately for me I was able to muster up enough energy to complete my “Lady Wears the Blues” look and take a few quick pictures to post here on the blog.

I must say I absolutely love this Simplicity vest pattern 8054 and I will definitely be making this baby again. This pattern is extremely easy to follow and should appeal to all skill levels including the newbie sewer. As for the pants I needed something quick I could whip up in about 30-45 minutes without much thought at all. So I pulled out my trusty hurry up and make a pair of pants pattern Butterick B6066. I have to admit that after pulling it all together I realized I should have made a different flare leg pattern with a front fly zipper but my lack of leftover fabric simply didn’t allow. Oh well maybe next time but for now these will definitely do in a pinch!
