Simplicity 9544 |
Picture if you will, the Fall of 1971 - 7th grade Hoover Drive Junior High School.
Otherwise known as Hell on Earth. (Gah. At least I thought I was sew cool.)
A Mom and Dad-approved way to be able to wear 1) a mini dress, 2) hot pants.
Picture, too, how cool these boots would still be today!
I made this twice. And yes, one of them with the rick-rack.
(I even put it down the center…and in hot pink!)
Let's bring back rick-rack. Rick-rack, like frosting, makes everything better.
(Perhaps not so much being in 7th grade, but I think I got an A for effort, and in rick-rack application)

I remember making this pattern. Purple doubleknit,with white buttons and trim, but with long bell bottom pants...no hot pants for school allowed. I was in 9th grade.
