2015 Velour

This is the first blog post I ever wrote about VELOUR...

***********

Last year, for his birthday, Ross wanted a velour tracksuit. (Yes, just like the ones they wore on The Sopranos). He is fascinated by all-things-Frank-Sinatra-Rat-Pack -- and, apparently, velour was the latest in high fashion menswear back in the 60's...
Ross put on his new velour duds, and keeps stroking the sleeves, saying, "classy and sophisticated"...
I ordered Ross's velour from Amazon -- and two days later -- found Warren's at a thrift store...
Warren's FAVORITE thing to do is walk outside...
Ross ALWAYS takes him for a walk...and they do all the usual things.Visit the chickens, pick apples off the tree...check the doors on all the cars...
They always end up here....
****************

So -- a year has gone by, the weather is turning cold...and Ross is ready to whip out his Navy Blue Velour track suit. Warren, of course, has outgrown his from last year. (he went from wearing a size 18 months to a size 4)!!

After visiting six local stores, I was completely willing to order one off the internet.  BUT NOBODY IS MANUFACTURING velour track suits for toddlers.

Of course, it's not a huge problem -- BECAUSE I SEW...

And you won't believe the mash-up....pictures coming soon...
