closet find

[susandennis]

My house grid search revealed forgotten sewing. So today I decided to try out this cool shirt I made last winter. The fabric was a duvet cover I got at Goodwill.

I love this shirt! I also remembered some pedal pusher length wide legged pants I made as a trial ... I've been wearing only dresses so far this summer but today, we have an alternate look!



But I also remember why I am not a fan of non-knits. Wrinkles. Ironing. So this is not going to take over my big fat lady flowy dresses for sure.

Well, it may not take over your wardrobe, but I really like the outfit! It's bright and cheery and fits you very well.

Delightful colors! And it looks mighty comfy, too. I've never liked dresses...thus this outfit gets my Big Thumbs-Up!

Ironing always makes me think of this joke:

On a flight to Japan, a plane passes through a severe storm. The turbulence is awful, and things go from bad to worse when one wing is struck by lightning. One woman in particular loses it.

Screaming, she stands up in the front of the plane. "I'm too young to die!" she wails. Then she yells, "Well, if I'm going to die, I want my last minutes on Earth to be memorable! I've had plenty of relationships in my life, but no one has ever made me really feel like a woman! Well I've had it! Is there ANYONE on this plane who can make me feel like a WOMAN?"

For a moment there is silence. Everyone has forgotten their own peril and they all stare riveted, at the desperate woman in the front of the plane.

Then, a business man stands up in the rear of the plane. "I can make you feel like a woman," he says.

He's gorgeous. Well-dressed, tall, built, with flowing black hair and jet black eyes, he starts to walk slowly up the aisle, unbuttoning his shirt one button at a time. No one moves. The woman is breathing heavily in anticipation as the strange man approaches.

He removes his shirt. Muscles ripple across his chest as he reaches her and extends the arm holding his shirt to the trembling woman, and whispers:

"Iron this."

I've been loving the long flowy dresses this summer very much.

Also I try to not own anything that needs to be ironed (or worse, dry cleaned)

That’s a fun pattern on your shirt.
