4th of July Outfits

Monday Morning...Later than the Last Post

They're completed! The flag outfits Greg, Kelly, Max & Ash will wear in July at a family reunion in Jacksonville are all completed. They turned out so nice; the fabric was a dream to work with. I am proud of a job done. Sewing is still one of my favorite hobbies.

Kelly, when you read my blog, view the pictures and breathe a sigh of relief...you have your patriotic outfits so your family shine at the reunion. Take a look....


This one is Ash's little suit, a close-up of the bib front with the flag, and my label.


Here's the front and back of Max's overalls. He also has a flag on his bib pocket and Granny's label.


Kelly's blouse is sooooo cute. It will look great with jeans or cute shorts...maybe red or blue. Kelly & Greg have their own special label.


Here's Greg's shirt, with a yoke and tiny pleats in the back and the collar carefully tailored.

This has been such a fun project. I love sewing for the boys, but to get to sew up some goodies for my grown children was especially nice. I hope they are just what was wanted.

These look so cute!! I can't wait for us to wear them. I think we're going to get a family picture made in them as well - so that will be a good "summery" photo! Thank you so much - you did an awesome job!!

This is sooo cool. I love how you have put your blog all together. It was interesting skimming through. One day I'll have time to try to get high tech! I am not on facebook yet. 41 years of teaching..wow! I appreciate your expert help with my students!
