Robin's egg blue, cropped Vogue 8774

I love spring.  Unfortunately, today it is 43 and trying to snow, but I feel so summery in my new cropped jeans. (inside, with fireplace going)  This is a stretch denim from Fabric.com.  Very stretchy, so they will probably be really loose by end of day, but oh so comfy! 

                        




Check out the waist and pocket lining! I have sewing machines in my pants!


The shirt, is my gingham Jalie 3130 from June 2012.

And aren't these shoes so cute?  Love Payless!

    Nice outfit! I love the color of those pants. I love Payless too -- I just got two pairs of sandals there this week;)

      Take your time and go slow. I find that I don't watch where the needle enters the fabric, but instead I watch where the edge of the presser foot is on the fabric, and then just try to maintain the same position as I sew. That and practice.

    Love the pants. The color is great. I have not gotten the courage to wear colored pants. You are encouraging me to take the plunge.

      I love them! You have made some really cute tops, they would be awesome with colored pants! Makes one feel so fresh and springy.
