Fall Is Here.almost
As a child I can remember the brisk breezes of fall blowing through my hair on my walk to school. Life was all about wool sweaters, corduroy jackets and new classes with new teachers.
It is hard to think of fall with out thinking of school. However, there is one other event that comes to mind…the new TV season! I can clearly remember when we got our first color TV in 1965. Forever after that I would anxiously await the publishing of the Fall Preview TV Guide. For me both of these memories evoke thoughts of fashion. What are the stars on television wearing this season? I would start sewing my own clothes, using the pictures in the Fall Preview as inspiration. I simply adored corduroy, skirts, dresses, vests, pants, bags, and jackets OH MY!
Today, I just cannot get enough flannel pajama bottoms!
Suede Cloth Handbags also feed my creative need.
Living on the East Coast the brilliant colors of the fall foliage are a treat to see each year. The breezes are not as blustery as I remember and I no longer get excited at the new fall TV line up. Still, surprisingly the autumn has a way of getting my creative juices flowing. Now there is a new generation to sew for. Saving money by making it yourself NEVER goes out of fashion.
