\"animal-knit-dress1\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Happy Friday! The teachers’ strike finally ended on Wednesday of this week, and it’s funny how almost every parent I ran into on the first day of school commented how looooooong this summer vacation was. All told, the start of school was delayed for six days, but when you don’t know what’s happening each day, every passing moment can feel like an eternity, you know?<\/p>\n

\"animal-knit-dress3\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Anyway. K thoroughly enjoyed the extra days of lounging about with friends, and despite my best efforts, I wasn’t as successful as I’d like to have been on the work front. I did, however, sew yet another animal print dress.<\/p>\n

\"animal-knit-dress4\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Sadly, K rejected it as a first day of school outfit because…well, I’m not sure why. She said that it’s more of a second day of school dress without providing much in the way of illuminating information. Hmmmm….<\/p>\n

\"animal-knit-dress5\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I used this book<\/a>, from which I should sew more. I love that it has patterns for both girls and women, and I’ve been eyeing a few items to whip up for myself. This particular dress pattern is technically meant for wovens, but since K won’t wear anything that’s not stretchy, I gave it a shot with this cheetah (?) knit jersey from here<\/a>. It’s super soft. The contrasting dark grey is the same scrap knit I keep using for details.<\/p>\n

\"animal-knit-dress6\"<\/a><\/p>\n

So there you have it, the second day of school dress. Be still my heart — could I interpret this to mean that the animal print phase is almost over??<\/p>\n

OK! Back to editing\/illustrating! I hope to post at least once next week too. I wish you all a wonderful, wonderful weekend!<\/p>\n

First day back at school<\/em>
\nK was filled with nervousness<\/em>
\nBut it was awesome*<\/em><\/p>\n

*She loves her teachers and most of her closest friends are in her class. Huzzah!<\/p>\n
