I presented a workshop at the Student Success and Retention Conference at the airport Sheraton a few weeks back and my reward was a stop at Fabric Depot on the way home. I really do not like speaking in front of crowds, so to counter the stress I treat myself afterward. Usually the treat is a milkshake at Burgerville on the way home from a high school FA night. The thing is, there is a Burgerville across the street from Fabric Depot. Life doesn't get much better than that. I certainly didn't need to add to my fabric stash, but this cotton was 50% off and called to me. A couple of yards was just under $12.00. A few days later,
this pattern called to me from the Vogue website. Luckily, patterns that day were on sale for $5.99. It took me a few more days to picture the two together and it turned out to be a good match.

The tucks are a bit tedious, but once they are done the rest of the shirt goes together fast and easy.
