Pulling my hair out!

I have been trying to upload a new blog template for the last hour with no luck!!!! 

B5100 EXTRA EASY SWEATER DRESS and M5525

At the LAST POSSIBLE minute my girls decided to go out last night to bar hop in Royal Oak. Of course I had a mountain of clothes that needed to be washed, so I looked in my stash for a quicky pattern. B5100 had been in my stash for a while and I had the PERFECT fabric.

The pattern was extremely EASY. I didn't even have to rip out any seams!!

I love the cowl neck! I wore a dark brown cami under it - lol for just a little modesty.

(yes I was watching FOOTLOOSE)

It took me 3 hours to trace, cut and finish this completely so I didn't have enough time to serge the arm seams :-) but I dont think anyone could notice.

It looked so super cute on, I think I'm going to make one in purple.

I used an orange corduroy I got from JoAnn's for only $3yrd. I ABSOLUTELY LOVE the direction my coat is going! I was intimidated about having o put a lining in, but after I got going I realized how easy it really was.  Im not done just yet - I have to hem it and place button/button holes but other than that its good to go.

Sorry about the cell phone pics- i couldn't find my camera, but I will post finished pics Monday.
