It’s Almost Fall

Yes, it is.  Although it is technically still summer (and yesterday morning was 80 degrees) today it is 20+ degrees colder.  When I go outside I think of Halloween.  No, not yet, please…

Here is my Little Darling, Gina, modeling a new fall outfit for you.  It is made up of a cotton floral dress, hand knit and embroidered sweater, hand knit beret, cotton tights, and a bracelet.  I bought the dress’s fabric from Vogue Fabrics in Evanston, IL many years ago.  I fell in love with the colors in this muted, yet colorful fabric.  The top I made for myself fast became a favorite of mine which I wore so much that I wore it out.  Looking back at my photo albums the top I had made found it’s way into many pictures over a period of 2-3 years.  My favorite colors in this floral print are the violet and blush pink so I chose to highlight those colors for this 5-piece ensemble.
