Rocking Chair is Done!

I'm actually writing to let you know that I'm still alive and kicking!

We had a long weekend in my part of the world, and we decided to host a dinner party on Sunday. The weather cooperated with us, and we had an outdoors party, enjoying our lovely deck and patio. It was fabulous! The best part was that my husband did the cooking, and he made some really delicious food.

Thank you so much for those of you who voted on the fabric for the rocking chair. I used the white bubbles fabric, but put the red bubbles fabric on the bottom so that I can switch it up when I feel like it.




I had started cutting up my next sewing project. It is going to be Simplicity 2927


I'm going to make the pink one you see in the picture above, but I will make it in classic grey.
There is a tendency for me to rush my sewing projects, but I am actually taking my time to make this one. Hopefully, it will turn out!

The chair looks great! (And "my" fabric won! hehe)

Can't wait to see the top. :-)

Your rocking chair looks great! I almost bought that Simplicity Pattern, so I can't wait to see how yours turns out.

Nice chair. Looks 10 times better. Can't wait to see the blouse. I have this pattern in my stash but would eventually like to do it.

I've made that pattern a couple times now (dress and tunic length). It's very flattering. I use a unique pin on the collar instead of buttons.

I like the chair! Nice job.

Oh man, I am so jealous. I wish I have an apartment big enough for a rocking chair.
