I might look as though I'm talking to you, but inside my head I'm sewing.

Lovely match of fabric and pattern Ef, love the selvedge trim too - and the buttons!

Your chambray is lovely.  Can I be cheeky and ask where from?

Jessie, who is very happy to be here!!  :),  but who has far too many sewing machines to be healthy, and a fabric stash which is becoming embarrassing.
