I’ve had so much fun print mixing using bits from precious stash of liberty cotton lawn! This is the #harrietblouse from @sewitcurly When I saw the gathers at the curved yoke and the cute rounded collar I knew it would be great for another #patternmixing project. The instructions and drafting on this are top notch. I already have another on my cutting table . More photos when the sun comes out! #sewover50 #harrietblouse #sew50visible #so50sustainablesewing #printmixing #stashbusting #scrapbusting #sewistsofinstagram #sewist #pdxsewing #pdxsews #iwearwhatisew #ageismisneverinstyle #sewoverageism #jeportecequejecouds
A new version of the #marceldresspattern from @chalkandnotch . This is my second version in a linen chambray for Fall. I think I’ll put a tee under it for a bit of extra warmth. Maybe with boots at some point? It’s so nice to find a dress that can be worn across seasons! I really enjoyed making this dress. #marceldresspattern #chalkandnotchpatterns #chalkandnotchmarcel @chalkandnotch #sewover50 #makersofinstagram #sewistsofinstagram #iwearwhatisew #linendress #sewingproject #pdxsews #iwearwhatisew #jecoudscequejeporte
How can it possibly be the end of August? This month flew by! Perhaps it’s time to shift into Fall sewing. Here are #mymakesforthemonth #serrajacket #archershirt #wrenblouse #marceldresspattern #chalkandnotchpatterns #minervamakers #so50sustainablesewing #sew50sustainablesewing #sewover50 #sewover50dresses #sewistsofinstagram #iwearwhatisew #jecoudscequejeporte #handmadewardrobe
This shirt is made from one of my mother in law’s embroidered tablecloths that had too many mildew stains and moth holes to be used. But the hand embroidery On it is so special I couldn’t bear to part with it, so I cut it into a shirt. It was so fun to figure out where to place the sleeves, hem and placket. I do love a good piecing project:) Page through to see the embroidery detail on the back! Someone worked for hours to make this special! #so50sustainablesewing #sew50sustainablesewing #sustainablesewing #grainlinearcher #repurposedfashion #memadeeveryday #handmadewardrobe #sewingproject #jecoudscequejeporte #imakewhatiwear #sewover50
New post on Minerva, my #paulinealiceserrajacket made from this cool water resistant fabric from Minerva. You all know it rains a lot where I live, so I jumped at the chance to sew something from this fun water resistant plaid from Minerva and wouldn’t you know it, it started to rain while I was photographing it:) Love this fabric, it will cheer up the gray days! I’ve always been nervous about sewing with rain resistant fabrics but this was a breeze.

This #wrenblouse from @chalk and notch was once a curtain probably hanging above someone’s kitchen sink. It was white but stained and dirty when I found it. I loved the textured cotton though! After a quick dye job, I made it into a #wrenblouse Now, it’s so wearable. #ritdye is my new friend. I love the sleeve detail on the wren, don’t you?Thanks to @sewover50 for the fun and inspiring #sew50sustainablesewing challenge. #so50sustainablesewing #sew50sustainablesewing #sustainablesewing #sustainablefashion #wrenblouse #chalkandnotchpatterns #chalkandnotchwren #iwearwhatisew #sewistsofinstagram #handmadewardrobe #ritdye #pdxsews #pdxsewing #indiepatterns #indiepatterndesigner @chalkandnotch #sewover50
