Day 12 - Rita Parenteau
Hello, my name is Rita, and I am very honored Ellen invited me.
I really enjoy all the beautiful makes Ellen makes.
I am an early retired 57 year old and love to sew every day when I am able too,

I am an early retired 57 year old and love to sew every day when I am able too,
unless I am enjoying my
grandchildren. My granddaughter is learning to sew with me.
My husband
and I enjoy going on vacations either by plane or in our motor-home.
Our favorite
place is Las Vegas; the shows are wonderful!
I have two rooms in our
home dedicated to sewing, one room is where I sew and have my machines, and the
other room stores my fabric. I think I have a lifetime supply of fabric and
notions!
(I did not know I was on
the pattern sale page! I just sent her a 'fit' picture because
I tested the
pattern for her before it was released for sale.
I just saw the picture now,
taken in my sewing room)
It is well drafted, but
the instructions are poor, and the inside finish of the pocket is untidy.
It comes with three neck variations, and opportunity for color blocking.
The
base is a sweat with a fluffy inside, and the purple is cotton Lycra.
It
is a very popular pattern, and I have seen many nice versions of it.
My sewing tip is:
Do not sew when you are stressed or anxious,
always relax and enjoy your sewing time.
