tart in dress
Yet another pinafore - but they are so handy!
Not having sewn with tartan / plaid for yonks, while I think I did an OK job at matching the up 'n' down, I see I didn't place the centre front in quite the right place. Ah well, I'm sure it won't be so obvious in the wild.
I did my usual sloper-adapted pinny, with a scoop neck rather than a square one, and the addition of extending the back shoulders to the front to make tabs (inspired by Kitty's pinny from last year). I got to use a whole TWO buttons from my buttonmania stash, 'ray!
Note to self: I usually make this out of stretch-woven. If I don't, then add some breathing space...

Loving the buttons. Lovely winter pinny you got yourself there.
I need to know what Bleedy Clown is saying in the background there...
He's saying 'patterns of the seventies and eighties'...
What a helpful horrifying clown!
I love, love, love this dress! I am a sucker for anything tartan. I am probably too old, but I still love wearing little tartan skirts.
