I'm already planning what to sew when I return from the cruise. After going to the ballroom dance a couple of weeks ago I faced the fact that I really enjoy these dances, even without a partner, but I have nothing that fits me anymore. After really looking at my dreaded croquis, I'm aware that very few styles will look good on me. So I think I'll use this as an inspiration. I need princess lines for the bodice, and an A-line skirt. I'll make a two piece dress with similar lines to this Vogue pattern, but less a suit jacket than a shell. I saw some gorgeous fabrics at Gail K's on Sunday, so I'll make a couple of spring shells and skirts and then spring into a new level of sewing: evening wear! Note to self: bring those buttons to Gail K's for shopping...maybe I will do the suit jacket look after all.
