Hello fellow sewists, I was checking my last post here in the blog and realised that I didn't make update for more than one and half months.

As things are back to normal this month and kid is back to school, I have a little free time to write a post and reading your posts too 😍 My latest makes are kimono top and slim pants, both are my entry to  #magamsewalong  hosted by lovely  Sarah Liz .
