This past weekend I made a couple of pieces for my patternmaking class. The skirt is a very slim pencil skirt that due to Pie Pop overloading I am not modeling... But! The top turned out really cool. The body of the cardigan is only three pieces- the two front panels extend all the way up to create the front part of the hood. The pleather trim was a little tricky to work with, particularly since I was sewing it to a jersey fabric, but it really does add a classy touch. My favorite parts are the hood, obviously, but even more I love the length in the front and the shortness in the back. It's a really cool oversized top to wear over anything.
Cutting out the cardigan...

Top and skirt on the form. The form has a way tinier waist than me, which is why it doesn't fit right.

Hood!

My sister is coming today to visit and to be here for the 2nd Annual Korean/American Thanksgiving Day party at my place. The menu is starting to come together and I am super excited about it. I'm doing desserts and am currently deliberating on my recipes of choice.
So excited!!!
