Lately I’ve been playing with shapes, and made distress yesterday. It’s a total of eight rectangles with very little waste πŸ₯° I’m never sure if an idea is going to become a pattern, so I just keep playing around until my gut says β€œyes” πŸ₯°πŸ‘πŸΌ #garmentsewing#sewing

A California girl like me can’t be expected to make winter clothes winter long- lightweight and single layer outfits are way more my jam. πŸ‘πŸΌ so I went ahead and broke out these silks to play around with and made myself a floaty little top of my own design. πŸ€— #sewing #garmentsewing

I use Crayola washable pens to mark on fabric! They were great and wash out more easily than tailor’s chalk in my opinion

πŸ˜… It’s really cold outside and here I go making a sheer Casita dress. (my own pattern) This floaty fabric is from Atelier Brunette and it’s perfect for this dress. Just like the kind my Abuela used to make 🩷 #sewing#garmentsewing

I just got here, and you should know that most of my posts are going to be about sewing. But sometimes I’m gonna share things that make me feel hopeful in these times. 🩷 Thanks, Laurie Anderson for sharing these wise words from environmentalist Rebecca Solnit.

No, I didn’t, but I must say, Im not sure I would enjoy sewing such thick wool πŸ˜…

ahhh ok, thanks for the tip, I’m a pattern maker (that also makes other’s patterns), and *really* want to leave IG, so fingers crossed this works! 🫠
