My daughter suddenly developed a love of the character Pikachu this summer. For the school year 2018-2019, she bought a yellow Pikichu hoodie and wore it almost daily. She saw that I had some remnant of yellow fleece and begged me to make her a pair of yellow pants to complete the all-yellow Pikachu outfit.
For a few weeks I asked to make sure that she would wear the yellow pants outside - not just for dressing up inside the house. If it's just for dress up then I don't want to waste my limited energy to make the dress up pants. She assured me for a few weeks that she would wear it outside, she would wear it to school.
So today I was feeling well enough to use the sewing machine. I quickly used a pair of my daughter's pants as a template and made the yellow pants. My daughter put the pants on right away with her yellow Pikachu hoodie to go to a family outing. I thought she would look like a giant banana at first but it didn't look that bad. Perhaps she could wear that to school. What do you think?
what a fun sunshiney colour. I think she looks fab.
ReplyDeleteThanks! It just shows that my daughter knows more about fashion than me!
DeleteI love it - yellow is such a cheerful colour! Well done to both of you :)
ReplyDeleteThanks. She does look good in yellow.
DeleteP. S. I'm glad you were able to do some sewing!
ReplyDeleteThanks! this new targeted chemo drug seems to be stabilizing my condition so that I can do a little sewing each week.
DeleteThat's good to hear, Nicky.
DeleteI have been thinking about you over the last few days as I have not seen you around in the blogosphere. How wonderful that you can at least do a little of what you enjoy. And your daughter's outfit is stunning - it must make you feel good to make her happy.
ReplyDeleteThanks Liz! It's great to be able to do something I love when I feel well enough. I look forward to those days every morning!
DeleteI love this yellow color and your daughter looks cute in the jacket and pants. I am glad you had some energy to sew. I hope you are doing better.
ReplyDeleteThanks Linda! I'm doing a little better. I hope each day is like that!
