Description

I was making pajamas with a beautiful cotton lawn fabric that I’ve had in my stash for a few years now and decided that the top is so nice, I would actually wear it out. I used a basic short pattern and a peasant blouse pattern that I probably came from somewhere but I cant remember where.

Ilove the ruffled sleeves and the lace detail.

    This is adorable! Color, design, just the entire look. Really cute on you. Some of my family visiting your state this week-seeing Donald & enjoying the weather. You are a great advertisement for what fun it can be!

      Thanks for the compliment. Tell your family to come on down although its a little bit cold from time to time.

      You are welcome! And I am definitely seeing something like this in a delicate white or azure gauze-type fabric! :-) Just my vision – I’ll be delighted to see what yours would be! :-)

    While it decorates the fence quite nicely, it looks much better on you! I love the ruffly cuffs the most! I have to agree, as comfy as it looks to sleep in, it is much too lovely to keep under the covers….
