Renfrews for le Mama

look how cute my mom is in her new Renfrews! she's the lucky recipient of my latest handmade gift/s. And she's already raking in compliments, so I'm pleased with my work!
um, navy is hard to photograph. 
 I gave her the brown one in pieces, saying if she liked the first one (with this gorgeous fabric) i'd make her a second (in a somewhat lamer, but still soft & cozy fabric). She was into it!
no waistband, just a simple hem. 
She also told me that when she was learning to sew knits, that's how they finished things- with bands. :/
fancy posing time. 
um, mom? was that a burn??

no, of course not. she's just sharing. she's also teasing me by telling but not showing me her tailoring books as she watches me struggle with my Anise collar. Another story for another day!

happy new year!!
