short sleeved and khaki

 Another Monday...another very minor project to share with you and yours. 
I found this short sleeved sweatshirt complete with decorative brass shoulder buttons (one side only...asymmetry for the W) and shoulder pads (extra thick) at the Goodwill recently
{if it looks like I just woke up...hopefully I did...I'm a tired lady}
 of course it wasn't as large as I had anticipated when I came home and put it on but the sleeves needed some serious slimming.
So
some minutes of sewing and braiding later...
with the help of my heavyweight rib cinch and ever stretched white jeans
we have a winner that will not be lasting until I am full on t-e-r-m...maybe post partum friendly...we'll see.

In other news: I'm over at DIY Maternity today (nothing you haven't seen before)
but check out these cools:

and a small Simon says:
Simon: did you send me those pictures?
Grace: what pictures?
Simon: you know...the ones where I'm being cute with Julia
Grace:

and don't forget about the giveaway popularay!

See you soon.

  1. How do you see the potential in clothes like that? It starts out so grandma, and ends up so fabulous! I cannot see past the grandma when I am scouring the isles of goodwill.
