Those are lovely, @Starryfish. I'm about to put together the long version of the Marlo sweater to use as a sort of dressing gown (because I hate wearing dressing gowns) but I'm keeping an eye out for something suitable for a short one.

Great outfit @Starryfish

We still have a few days to go before the end of October. So still time to enter!
I took 2 of my 3 pieces away with me do they'll need to go through the laundry and I can do an outfit shot.

Well, I probably won't get my jacket finished.  :( I have very little left to do on it but have no impetus to finish it as I've fallen out of like with it. I've got family coming tomorrow but if they leave early enough I may just be able to do it tomorrow but it's looking unlikely at the moment.

Although mine are finished I've not got a shot of me wearing them. Here are the hanger shots though

Cotton lawn floral shirt. The pattern is Prima March 2020 cut off to blouse length. I've also added a continuous placket for the opening rather than using the sleeve seam and patch pockets with buttoned flaps.

Dark Olive Mountain View trousers (Itch to Stitch)

Cardigan adapted from the Harper Cardigan, narrower front band, no hem band - just a stitched hem and slightly shorter sleeves with longer cuffs

Thank you, @SewRuthieSews. I'll pass on the patch as I have several and postage is exorbitant, these days. It's always fun taking part. I even have something that I hope to be able to shoehorn into the festive fun if I'm up to it  8)
