I do like soccer and that even spills over into my sewing but not recently even with the World Cup in play. The last time I made something soccer related was this Euro Cup dress a decade ago. And a soccer print face mask during the pandemic. Both pieces of clothing are no longer in rotation.
This mask was made with the Dhurata Davies pattern. Highly recommended pattern but hopefully we won't need to sew these again and our pandemic era is behind us all.
I made this knit dress, a Marcy Tilton design, out-of-print Vogue 9130, in celebration of Portugal's advancement in the 2016 Euro tournament. But this year, I'm not really into watching the tournament after Ronaldo's surprising visit to the White House, even though there are three co-hosts of this year's tournament. There is just something about this year's soccer festivities that doesn't excite the sewing mojo of previous tournaments.
There is still sewing going on. Last summer, I cut out several versions of another Tilton pattern, OOP Butterick 6784 and I didn't get around to sewing the final version. An orange linen version before the seasons changed. I think it's about time I got to work on this latest version. Besides,
Stand strong, elbows up and keep sewing.
