The weather we've been having lately has been unbelievable - quite warm and sunny, more like May or June than March. I was talking to a friend at the cottage, and they said the ice is out - that's the earliest any of us can remember.
My son has requested new pajama shorts - the long flannel pants were just too warm, and he only had a couple of pairs that still fit from last year.
I was of course, happy to oblige.
From left to right -Superman and Batman, (which it seems, are still cool amongst the teenagers), and a dalmatian print (an homage to my husband's family, who owned a dalmatian for 15 years).
Then there was a little something for me. I had this chiffon print sitting around forever it seems, and finally decided to make a loose floaty tunic.
So I did. And I love it. And it's made me want to do more sewing, so that's what I did for much of the weekend. I'm still knitting on stuff - my son wants his sweater, and I'm so close to finishing it, so I kind of hope it cools off for a bit so he can wear it.
And an update on last week's Regional Besketball tournament - the boy's team won their pool, and the first round of elimination, but lost in the final four. A great showing, and they played so well - so proud of this bunch of kids! Top four in all of York Region is pretty impressive!

Claps for the boys!
Yeah for the team! :-)
I'm impressed and amazed again at how fast you can make things! Wow! Three new pairs of shorts and a new top in one weekend! That's incredible!
I love your new tunic. It looks so comfortable and the fabric is so pretty!
I really need to get to work on the sewing projects I've bought patterns, fabric and notions for!
Your PJ bottoms are great. This summer grand duaghter #2 and I are going to tackle them. It will be her first sewing experience Your fabric from India is over the moon. Gorgeous.
Top 4! Wow!
Lucky kid - those pj shorts are awesome!
I've lost my sewing mo-jo. I used to do a lot of sewing for family and for spending money, whole wedding parties, etc. I have a huge stash of fabrics, notions, patterns, etc. I decided to give up sewing for others. but my dear "older" neighbor/friend, said "but you haven't ever sewed anything for me", so we went shopping for fabric, and I just don't want to do it. I think that one is the blockage. I put myself on a yarn diet this year, and decided to try to find fabric in my stash to go with every sweater I knit, but can't get past the neighbour's outfit waiting patiently.
