Oh dear, it's been well over a month since I've posted hasn't it?
Well that's summer for you.
Recently at my day job (at our public library) I was empowered to purchase a serger and sewing machine for our patron to use. The machines came with free new user lessons so I spent a day learning to use a serger! I'm so excited to use it more.
After my class I decided that I should practice a little bit in a real life situation so I tested out the Peri Pullover from Cali Faye. Holy smokes. I am in love with both the serger and the pattern.
This top is so slouchy and comfortable. I think it will make for a great start to the back to school wardrobe.
I love the high low hem. It's one of the Bug's favorite parts too.
She also loves the wide neck that sometimes goes off the shoulder and the in seam pockets. I love that she chose to pair this purple tribal print (from Girl Charlee--looks like they are sold out of the violet) with a neon orange tank top. She has style all her own.
She asked for a matching pair of leggings and I was happy to oblige. These are the Go To Leggings in their most basic form. I've used this pattern a bunch. They always sew up quickly and sizing is spot on.
The verdict is, I'm hoping to start saving for a serger soon. Until then, I'm happy I can rent out time on one at the library. I think I may make more of these pullovers as well. What do you think?
