Self-Stitched September

[helwen]

Day 4 was undies, no pic.

Day 6 was a very simple purple linen shirt. Was originally two pieces in a "T", scoop neck, seams separate for the bottom couple of inches (for easier fit over hips). I did recently take it in a couple of inches, center front and back, because the neck opening was too wide across the shoulders. No pic this time, but I'll try to remember next time I wear it.

Day 7: threw on a linen bog shirt this morning, then we decided to go to Elmer's for a late breakfast and we have discount shirts for that so I changed (10% off breakfast when you wear the shirt). Switching for the afternoon to a boring grey linen long-sleeve shirt with an old wool poncho over it, to go down to the sugarhouse for a little bit. The poncho's in excellent shape, actually, and I love it for rainy weather. I brought it to my first Pennsic, and it's been to every Pennsic I've gone to, as well as other places.
