Textile envy....

Do you ever look at some of runway garments and think, well yeah that's a simple little frock but look at the fabric there is no way I can ever make that.  That's what I was thinking when I saw this.  Now I would pick other colors but, these designers have textile firms print up their colors and designs for them.

Look at how cute it is under a jacket. 

Here's the back.  

 I mean how hard can it be? I could never make it though.... because I'd spend all my efforts online shopping for it and never find a suitable stripe, or decent fiber content, but why stop now, why not take an even closer look to torture myself some more

.

Hey wait a minute, do you see what I see? This puppy is pieced, you can make it out of anything you'd like.
Victory!!

I figured since I can't sew again for a while, I'd do some snoop shopping.
