Garment Sewing Projects

Floral Tulle Formal Shirt

Grainline Studio Archer Button Up in embroidered floral tulle, featuring french seams, machine embroidery appliquéd to the collar, contrast lining on button placket and cuffs.

Pencil Costume

Goldfinch Studio Jones Trousers, self-drafted hat and purse, vest traced from extant vest. I hand out pencils on Halloween (in addition to candy–I’m not a monster).

Simple Cardigan

A lightweight cover-up with carefully matched stripes featuring neon selvedge in the back seam and the bottom hem. Pattern traced from a thrift-store find.

Floral Pants

Papercut Pattern’s Palisade Pants slapped together out of quilting cotton. These were an early attempt at garment sewing; despite questionable material and construction, they have remained a comfy wardrobe perennial for four years now.
