A Request Fulfilled…Kind of… {Oliver + S, Playtime}


Oliver and S, Playtime Tunic and Leggings

So, our sister put in a request…..and if you follow along, you’ll know she doesn’t do that very often {*and she graciously accepts any creation sent her way time and time again}!!

You see, last Fall/Winter, EA’s go-to attire was the Oliver and S, Playtime Tunic and Leggings {ie: our first “date” with Mr. Knit}.

The original, finished garment was a SUCCESS….to put it mildly!

That outfit has been worn, worn, worn, and worn some more.  It’s doubtful CL or LG will ever have the benefits of wearing it!

Let’s just say, it’s seen better days!

*Just like the flower in the photo below….do you see the difference between the above and below photo??

Yep. It took all of three minutes!!

Sister Momma’s request went something like this…”Do you think you could make EA another outfit – like the hydrangea one from last year?”

So, we did….but we fudged a bit. “Mr. Knit” wasn’t invited on the tunic date.

Still, there may be hope yet! We’ve bought some knit that could easily be paired with the leggings sewn for this creation. So, don’t count out full fulfillment in its entirety.

As for using woven?? EA loves it….although we know it won’t be as easy of a “throw on and go” sort of garment like the knit was last year.

Still, we are trying to embrace knits. We really are.

It was decided flower tunics must be worn while planting flowers….right??

*It DID make for a pretty fun photo shoot!!

Then….EA found a BONUS!!

All photos are more fun with a WORM!!

It took some doing, but we eventually convinced EA that the worm would be much happier in its natural environment than as an indoor pet…

So, while we didn’t stick to the original request {a mere technicality :)}, surely the lack of a pet worm has GOT to amount to something!
