Way Back Wednesday - Simplicity 9544

Simplicity 9544

I LOVED this pattern!! 

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)
