I Must Make This Outfit!

I saw the photos below on Dust Jacket Attic recently and I immediately fell in love with this outfit. Simple, elegant, lovely...I must make it!!! I even like the bow headpiece.
 The addition of the Prada bag adds just the right amount of whimsy.
So much to do....
but this one is worth it!
I'm sure this is a wool knit. Can anybody tell me where to find a lovely cornflower blue wool knit? The last thing I need is more fabric, but I love this outfit!!!!
I think this is such a beautiful flower.

  1. Divine - just our style. Are you going to draft it or do you have a pattern handy?

    1. I'll draft it. I have a skirt draft that I use all the time. The top is pretty basic, so it won't take too much effort.

  6. It's not cornflower blue, but close. You could order a couple of samples. From Mood Fabrics:

  7. This was quickly pasted into my personal file. "Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery" Charles Caleb Colton. I take this seriously when it comes to fashion ;)!

  9. I found some light blue merino blue wool knit on eBay. Sadly, there's only one yard of it.

    1. Thanks for looking Miss DD. I can usually get away with a little less fabric, but a yard would only make a child's size outfit!!!
