Greetings fellow Crafters!
In an attempt to save money, I've decided to update my fall/winter wardrobe with garments I make. Nothing too fancy at first. Just a few basics. I've found a few patterns for this update in my pattern stash. Have a look below:
For the jacket, I want it to hit past my waist. Option B seems like it does that. I'm still looking for some dope fabric to bring this to life. Also thinking about adding some festive buttons, but that maybe to much... This would be the second jacket that I've made. I hope it turns out okay...
I absolutely LOVE color! A nice pair of orange wide legged pants and a brightly colored top would look so funky, yet sophisticated. Looking through my stash, I came across this pattern that may work. As mentioned before, I'm going to do a muslin of the pants first to achieve the perfect fit. Hopefully, I can start on them sometime next week.
I also found these two dress patterns in my stash. Going to use some nice printed fabrics for them. Basic dresses are essential. You can dress them up with a nice belt or some statement jewelery. Dress them down with a nice blazer or cardigan. Or throw on a simple scarf to add a touch of flare. You can never have to many.
Though this wasn't on the original list, I've decided to make a coat as well. I've never made a coat before and figure this would be a good way to save some money and get some practice in. I think the drape coat is sick and looks very comfy.
Now that I have the patterns picked, I need to take a trip to the store for some funky fabrics.
Wish me luck!
