Since the ball point needle was already in the sewing machine, I opted to make knit tunics for my girls. That's so much easier than changing needles to work on the woven fabric projects I have sitting in queue, right?;)

Modern Workshop Interlock Knit Fabric
I made a size 110, the same size as my gift but added 1 1/2 inches to the sleeve length. It's buttery soft (I love all the Oliver + S interlock knits!) and sews up quick. I cut the pattern out last night and spent about an 1 hour 15 minutes sewing it together this morning. Since BK doesn't leave for school until a little after 11am, she had a new top to wear today!
MG's top is almost finished, she chose a Patty Young knit for hers. I didn't have enough fabric for a hood so I did the pocket instead to make it special. I'll finish it up tonight and put pictures on flickr and facebook of her top tomorrow.:)
