I've found quite a few lovely projects this week and last. If you're looking for summer sewing inspiration, be sure to check these out:
From Casey: Shorts Story
From Anna: Mociun Knock-off
From Cidell: BWOF 6-2009-107
From Sigrid: Top for my Daughter
From Sigrid: Top for my Daughter
Casey and Anna's creations have inspired me to try my hand at some more pattern drafting. I'm in love with the idea of having creative control over an entire project, from the conception of an idea, to the design of the pattern, and the final hand stitched hem. Often I am too timid to make the leap of faith and trust myself to do this. This is where Burda's patterns are so wonderful; They let me create trendier pieces without spending as much time working my measurements into a pattern. Cidell and Sigrid's gorgeous posts remind me that I need to take another look at Burda's June issue. These are both examples of garments that I might have been a bit wary to try if I hadn't seen other attempts first. Thank you to Casey, Anna, Cidell and Sigrid for the inspirations! I'm ready for a weekend of sewing now!
