From the studio
Fabric, fittings and what I'm sewing this week.
The fabric wall, explained
Why I buy prints by the roll and what I do with the offcuts.
From sketch to jumpsuit
Follow one design from a pencil line to the first fitting.
Eight dress forms, one garage
How I check a pattern on every size before it goes out.
Porch afternoon in the sunflower hoodies
A Sunday with friends and a pitcher of sweet tea.
A rust jumpsuit, finished
The first jumpsuit I made for myself, and how the pattern grew from it.
A day in the garage, start to finish
Coffee, the cutting table, a fitting at two and the radio on.
Pattern Notes
One email a month: a new pattern, a fit tip and a fabric I can't stop buying.
