A LITTLE SEWING, A LITTLE RTW...

I'd like to thank those of you who sent me understanding and  uplifting responses to my last post...I'm feeling much better! and Happy New Year!

Here's a vest I've been wearing a lot lately...


It's B6064 by Katherine Tilton, in a yummy scarlet cross-woven-in-black poly
taffeta from Marcy Tilton. Here is another hands-in-pockets view

and here is the perfect button I just happened to have in my stash!


 And here's another vest, this one by Lynn Mizono for Gisele Shepatin. Its out of a lovely thick fleece and I love the collar!




and the back...


It appears I can't have too many red vests! This one is from one of my favorite
resellers.

And then, I saw this online on Shopbop and decided I had to have it...


The beautiful shibori scarf is from several years ago when I went shopping with


We are enjoying a visit from oldest daughter who lives in Salt Lake City. I am going to roast a chicken tonight and we'll watch Downton Abbey. What fun!

I'm headed over to Patti's Not Dead Yet Style Visible Monday where there's a giveaway going on...check it out!

  10. Hi Margy,
    Glad you are feeling better. Always love reading your blog!
    I love that Liz Mizono vest. Is there a pattern # to go with that? I looked at the Vogue web site and couldn't find it. Thanks

  11. Love the looks you've presented to us here, and oh, that red! A sure cure for the blue funks. Would you mind sharing who "one of your favorite resellers is?" I cannot think of one who sells Liz Mizono and am hoping you'll help clear that up.
    Thank you, and Happy New Year & Happy Stitching in 2015!
