First look at the Simplicity 1612/2580 hybrid




 I still need to hem it, but my lovely franken-pattern has come together nicely.


In fact, I'm more than a little smug with how its turned out, and plan more of these.   Now I need to convince the world that they are work-appropriate and then I can live in them all summer.



Check out the snazzy back - its hard to tell from the low-res, brightened pictures (I'll be getting nicer ones when its slightly warmer out) but there is a nifty twist detail on the back)

    1. thanks! I got it at Jomar - its a Philly based chain that sells remnants. Its pot-luck what they will have on any given day.

      Good luck with yours and I'd love to see it when its done.
