It is grey cotton tricot with embossed silver stars...felt I needed a little blue accent and dip dyed the finished piece in teal, advancing the fabric every half hour to create a gradient of color. Like what I have seen on pinterest, although I went for pale colors. Looks great with my white linen slacks....dark jeans....or my grey wool slacks and a blazer.

Today I am cutting out my velvet leopard print...it is a jade and black combo,--pretty unexpected--but should be a fun piece for a jacket for one of the evening events I host at Stitches. I decided to keep it pretty casual and make it a raglan bomber with elasticized waist and cuffs. I found a great NEW LOOK pattern a few years back (is 15 years a few?) and finally have time to do something with it....did I tell you I am going to SEW KANSAS this week, and hope to get a vest and jacket made...
