Clare’s Sewjourn pinafore

I hoped that I would be able to get Clare to model the pinafore I made her at Sewjourn, but she hasn’t obliged.  That’s not to say she hasn’t worn it – to the contrary, she really likes it – but she’s always been otherwise occupied when I’ve wanted to photograph it.

Clare's pinafore - front (Simplicity 3510) by you.

The pattern is Simplicity 3510.  I made Clare a summer dress from the same pattern, and it’s translated nicely to a winter pinafore.  The fabric was left over from the cape I made a couple of winters ago.

Clare's pinafore - flower detail by you.

The flower trim was made from selvedge from the same fabric.  This was a very satisfying project.
