2013 Style The Stash Sew A Long

By -

Hello everyone!
I am joining Sarah of SarahLiz Sew Style on a challenge to sew garments from the stash. And here are my sewing plans/ideas for June 2013,

My first project is an outfit (floral shorts and matching t-shirt), inspired by Instyle - Summer Fashion 2013 .
I am  going to use a pencil pants pattern based on Burdastyle Pencil Pants 04/2013 for this shorts, I will explain to you how I made a shorts pattern from a pants pattern on my next post.
For the fabric, I will use 1 1/5 yards of light weight floral linen. I am thinking of making a matching bag if I have the left over fabric, I will see later:)
Also, I am thinking of matching the shorts with a purple t-shirt. I had an idea of refashion a men t-shirt that I had inside my stash.

And my second project is brocade dress based on Burdastyle Sweetheart Dress 04/2013.
I have 2 yards of brocade fabric in floral green in my stash for so long waiting for the right pattern.
