I do have another 2 yards just to look at ;)

:thumbsup: Very nice

WTG! You both look so nice in those cherries...and you're looking great in general too, mama! Congratulations on your weight loss! :bow:

Oooooh, I love your shirt, and your dd's dress!! Can I copy you???? :lol: Did the pattern for your shirt go together well, and did you have to make any adjustments to it?

Doesn't it feel great to use some of that fabric up? :lol:

Both outfits look great.

You both look wonderful! Very nice use of that great fabric.

You two look beautiful!! :) I'm proud of you Suz!! Your roses in the background are sooooo pretty too. :heart: My roses are budding. Yeah!!

I bet it feels great to do that! I know I felt great when I sewed up my favorite fabric anyway.

The top and dress bothe look lovely.

Where did you find the jean skirt? I have been looking everywhere for a JEAN skirt, not just a denim skirt but a JEAN skirt, with no luck. Well I shouldn't say "No luck" more like nothing kee lengths or a tad longer. They are all miniskirts and I don't have a mini skirt body anymore. :shake: :lol:

So, are you mourning the loss of the cherries in your stash or are you happy to be wearing them?
Not at all. Everytime I walk by a mirror or look at E I smile. I'm sooooo happy I did this.

thanks for the compliments everyone!
Dina, The shirt fits well in front. I have some gaping in the back. when Allison is here I'm gonna ask her for some alteration help

Chelle, thanks partner.. I see your at 8..WTG

You both look beautiful in your delicious cherries! Nice work. I am going to look up that pattern. :)

You both look beautiful in your new outfits. Good job on cutting your favorite fabric. Your a motivated mama. You make such nice things.

:lol: I've got my 2 yards in the sewing room waiting to be turned into a cross-front top! Must be the week for Lili Cherries to be sewn.

Congradulations on using your very favorite fabric. :heart: You look maaaavelous.

Wow! Great job! Very brave of you. Come back and hold my hand while I cut into my Bremen Town Musicians fabric.
I need to find my sewing table and get started. I need a few tops and desperately need some shorts or capris that fit me.... sigh...

I found this at our Outlet Mall.. at the Osh Kosh store..lol I didn't even know they had adult clothes. I find knee length skirts at the GAp. I just stitch up the slits.

Thanks again Mama's

Fabulous!!!!!!!! The shirt looks great as a mama shirt :flowerkit

so cute suzanne! :heart:

Both of you look so pretty :heart: I have a yard of that fabric I've been hording for no other reason than for some reason whenever I look at it I see a newborn diaper and gown set (did someone sns something like that in the past, lol?). I can't get it out of my head:D.

Oh, they're beautiful Suzanne. I'm so glad you sewed it up!

gosh thats cute! Your daughter is gorgeous:)

Wow, you guys both look great! I really love that wrap top, and the cherry blossoms are perfect for this time of year.

Beautiful! So much nicer to look at on you and Eliana than in your stash :).

OH I love cherries. Those are gorgeous.! And what a cutie pie you have there!

Oh, so very pretty--both the clothes and the models!! Wonderful job!

cool! those are very cute!!! I think I'm gonna make something for me too with that one

Good for you! Now you need to pick a new favorite, lol. :D You guys look wonderful.

B-e-autiful!!!


Wendy:)

I didn't think it was possible, but you made that fabric look just as beautiful in clothing as it does being pet! :heart
