Another Shirt for me ....

A forum I'm part of is having a challenge in June/July to sew for yourself ... I can't seem to wait till June! I made another shirt for myself last night.

This pattern is great, goes together quickly and logically, and fits well. The fabric is a very soft brown bamboo/lycra blend.

Today we're off to celebrate my mom & my brother-in-law's birthday, and Finn needs to shop for a gift for Mémé -- we'll actually need to tackle shops on a weekend, something I really try to avoid.

Run, Ro, Run ....

In my lovely new running gear ... which I stayed up too late to finish! But, I wore it for my run this morning, and I'm very happy with it, a couple little tweaks to the pattern for the next set and it'll be perfect. Photobucket Photobucket Photobucket
