A Gingery Breeze with a Side of Sorbetto

So, among the ass load of student papers and institutional work I've done, an article revision, and the hell, absolute HELL, of book formatting, I squeezed some time to make up some lovelies.  Why? A girl can always use more clothes, and handmade ones are fun! Yes, even fashion basics are fun. First up: Colette's Ginger pattern, version three.  Okay, my version three . . . not hers.  I made a purple one (Colette version one), which my zipper busted upon completion so I deconstructed part of the waistband to replace said zipper (Coats and Clark owes me about an hour and a half!), and I made a bias cut one (Colette version three) with kitchy zebra turned chevron stripes.  You'll see it on here this month.  I will get to that later. Sorry for the shitty picture.  I couldn't get the light to work in my favor today, and I'm looking worse for the wear after a longish day.   See . . . it's just your basic A-line, until: Bound seams!...
