Purple Silk Button Up Blouse
Its official — I love silk blouses! I made this one over about two weeks, finishing it just in time to wear to work. It is made from a classic pattern, after I had made a muslin for it.

Looking back on 2011 and forward on 2012!

The Fashion of Copying
Saw this video today and thought it is really interesting and very entertaining, very much worth the 16 minutes: While I do not think that all industries could follow the lead of copyright-free fashion industry, she does make quite a compelling point. I am not sure if fashion = pattern fashions, as burdastyle had beenContinue reading “The Fashion of Copying”

I went to a birthday dinner, a sleep over , a dinner party, a bike ride to the farmers market, a yard work sessio, and I got half-way done with an outdoor summer home for my beloved pet tortoise Koopa: But most importantly (for sewing), IContinue reading “Maker Faire and Meeting Alden”
