A Second Lookbook

[purplelucrezia]

Lovely jacket, As you like it, that fabric is so luxurious looking! I always love seeing your new work...

Not high art, but I got bored at work today, and I thought it was interesting.

Aww, thank you, Brian!

I hadn't ever had any dupioni before, and I was concerned that it might be terrible to work with on account of the fraying, but once I zig-zagged the raw edges (I don't have a serger) it was absolutely fine, and I found that it eased much better than many fabrics I have worked with. Therefore the curved seams in the body of the jacket and the backs of the sleeves, to say nothing of the sleeve-heads all went together perfectly, first time. I usually spend a lot of time picking out stitches and fussing when I put a pair of sleeves in a garment!

Edited to add, Purple, that's really, really cool. Is that mendhi henna?

Too chicken, and too fickle besides, for that.

Thanks, 100% genuine pen.

textiles.

 

[As You Like It]

Cypress, that sculpture/painting is awesome! I love stuff like that.

Chanel, did you embroider that? It looks so very cool. It kind of reminds me of some fabric I made a tunic out of a while back. I'm a big fan of gold metallic.

 

[i_<3_chanel]

ayli thankyou!
actually its yellow thread & its not embroidered.
just experimenting with simple basic stitch & lots of circles. haha
