Usually, a night shirt, but I have to run to town, so a t shirt and jeans. Sunday is dress up day for church, but most of the time it's my jeans. If I'm not going out, I usually just wear my night shirts. I had to dress up for 35 years, when I was working. Now that I'm retired, I can be as bummy as I want!

Sounds like alot of us that had to dress up for years enjoy pj's and sweats. The next couple of days are supposed to be cold, cold, cold so it may be pj's with sweatshirt on top. I have a bad leg that I broke twice in 7 different places so in winter the old dancer's leg warmer is a must for that leg.

when i go to the next guild meeting i will have to pay attention to what the group (as a whole) is wearing---i've noticed individuals- some with great quilted items-vests, skirts, ect...but had not really paid attention to (color coordination) associated with the quilting activity- will have to check this out- at home i am often (in the mornings in sweats, jeans & sweat shirts in the afternoon) always stocking or slippered feet. last week a went to sewing group with my big ole clunky winter boots on....found it quite difficult to sew with those boots on- 
--i find it difficult to drive with them on too---looking forward to March/April when i can put the boots away again!

What do I wear when quilting-the same as I wear any other time. Shorts and a tank top with no sandals.

I was reading in another post that one quilter wore a night gown over her clothes to keep the 'quilters poop' off of them. Then when she needed to go somewhere, she just removed the night gown. I thought that was a great idea. Makes for a lot less strings being attached.

I get dressed every morning in slacks, top, and shoes and socks. Same winter and summer. Nice enough to go anywhere on the spur of the moment or have company drop in. I feel better when dressed, fix my hair and put on a little make up. When I'm cleaning or cooking I do what my grandmother did, put on a house duster (thin cotton short robe) over my clothes. Those are getting hard to find in the stores. My guild and workshop dress is just newer slacks and tops.

When you quilt at home do you like me have quilting clothes,? Easy to wear and sloppy. When I go to a class much smarter but for some reason if I wear blue my quilting is also blue. Do you colour match with you quilts when at classes. I have noticed this happens a great deal as well as groups of quilters who meet regularly wear the same colour. All this is done subconsciously . So exciting. Sloppy Joe today brown tee shirt grey track spilt bottoms with fleece lining, brown socks only because it is snowing and below 0. Quilting is reverse applique in white and turquoise.
