Just made some Ponte Roma Pants, and I think a white shirt sounds good.

Can't find my glasses, either! <br />I'm joining in, and went to Joann's this morning and bought some ponte.

I have a pair of black "ponte" pants now but could always use another and I already have the fabric. I'll check my patterns this weekend to see if I have one to use.<br /><br />I am finishing up a pair of camel wool pants and have about a yard left that I'm hoping I can squeak a pencil skirt out of for # 5. I also have black denim and have been wanting to make a pair of jeans so # 2 is a good idea, too!<br /><br />I have several sweater knits and two wrap sweater patterns that I intended to make (i.e. #6)<br /><br />As you said, we can always use another white blouse. They never last long for me - I either stain them or they start to look dingy. I have that shirred placket blouse pattern (the one that you really like and made last year) and have it cut out in red but a white version would be great.<br /><br />I have plenty of black turtlenecks and black dresses so I won't do those. <br /><br />Not sure about the two vests but I'll keep my mind open!Bonnie O.https://www.blogger.com/profile/10337963671634796459noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33406737.post-3887675373806304912012-01-15T19:49:14.902-06:002012-01-15T19:49:14.902-06:00Of all that is listed, I only have the puffy vest ...Of all that is listed, I only have the puffy vest ( a hand-me-down from my daughter!) and the boots.

Due to the extensive travel in my life (and, OK, my general pokiness :), I have to really plan ahead and am already planning things for spring. Just a though.
