V 8854 French Blue Version
Previously: I made three of these tops, including this one, in 2014 — that’s why this is a “legacy” post — and am still wearing them in 2021! OK, this is the third one of these I’ve made and, yes, … Continue reading

Bag Edits
I admit to having a pretty serious bag problem. A bag for every purpose; that’s my motto. I make them; I buy them; I use different ones all the time, depending on the day’s (or, formerly, the trip’s) purpose. But … Continue reading

Burda 6765 — Linen Top
This project turned out to be more “blouse” than the woven “tee” I’m always searching for. But I’m really happy with it! Perhaps predictably, I did change things up a fair bit from the pattern.

I AM Pan – Second Version
I’ve previously panned (heh, heh) this pattern in this post, but have attempted another version. It’s I AM Pan, from the French company I AM. The allure of a woven tee was apparently too much to resist. But I’ve changed … Continue reading

Burda 6124 The Summer Tweed Version
I liked wearing these pants a lot when I first made them, but ended up pretty much hating the super-deep clown pockets. The pattern is Burda 6124. For my second pair, I drafted in-seam pockets, and I’m a lot happier … Continue reading

Green Pepper F559 Full Moon Baglet
It’s a baglet because, even though I made the largest size in the pattern, it’s still quite compact. But for my purposes, it’s a great size, and the design is just plain fun. Contrary to what you see here, this … Continue reading

A Woven Tee
I’m always dreaming of a woven tee for all occasions. (OK, for most occasions.) On a visit to my favorite fabric store anywhere — Stitch Sew Shop, in Alexandria, Virginia — I spied the pattern which became this little linen … Continue reading

Vogue 1486 Fungi Version
There’s a wonderful store in Montreal called MycoBoutique, which is all about the marvelous mushroom. Along with fungi, one can buy all kinds of foraging and collecting equipment, mushrooms themselves, and an assortment of lovely fabrics, all related, in some … Continue reading

Burda 6579 Pieced Top
A circle-style skirt like my Adri Vogue 1524 wastes a lot of fabric, which left enough to make this Burda top. So I did. Burda says it’s a one-spool “easy”, and technically it is, but naturally I had to complicate … Continue reading
