I really like the back leg zips, although they'd probably drive me crazy to wear.<br /><br />I think I'm the opposite: since January, I've been sewing spring/summer garments, getting ready! Honestly, I'm just about sewing myself an entire new spring wardrobe! Looking forward seems to be distracting me from the fact that it's not spring yet :-)Gailhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11189513869927434997noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3383028092077970309.post-51197215568535331312016-03-20T15:50:41.479+00:002016-03-20T15:50:41.479+00:00so smart to old off sewing any more winter stuff a...so smart to old off sewing any more winter stuff at this stage, and then just making some good plans for what to sew when the weather improves! That couture dress class is going to be amazing, I love that broderie anglaise you've chosen. And that top you are going to sew! Looks amazing.

I hadn't thought of that. I'll check it out before I make my final decision.

Or say pants in a slightly brighter tone (e.g., not grey or black!).<br /><br />The Bowline sweater is so cute and the fabric for the Marfy dress and the jacket is yummy!!<br /><br />I was thinking, re: the jeans zippers...it's possible that the leg of the jeans are slim enough to need the zipper to get in/out of them??SewCraftyChemisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07971798108420431518noreply@blogger.com
