Excuse the mess, but I just finished making this outfit and I'm kind of excited. I kind of want to wear it out tomorrow...

Finally getting around to patterning pants.

YEAAAAH!

the back pain to set this up was so worth it, I also included my draft in case anyone wants it even though it's a fairly basic chevron twill. The one thing missing in my draft is a pink thread in shaft 1 on the rightmost side - my draft also does not include the floating selvedges. I'm weaving at 24 EPI with 8/2 cotton, the black is a slubspun cotton - all bought from The Woolery!

I'm going with a very loose weave because even though this is gonna be a scarf, our autumns are still fairly warm!

Capes and Cloaks!

Hello all! It's been a long time coming, but today, I'm excited to announce I'm finally branching into capes and cloaks!

In the days to come, I'll be creating pieces with a focus on refurbish fabrics and reclaimed accents in an effort to limit overall textile waste that seems to plague our modern-day fashion industry.

This rust red, beaded cape is the first in my collection now for purchase.

*Only one available.*

I can finally post the quilt I made my boyfriend for christmas! it’s hard to tell but it’s very big!

[projectgoblin]

Just a “quick” pop up project, since I decided what I was going to make for my in-laws for Christmas. Quilter Holiday table runner and matching placemats. Here’s the 3 primary blocks for the table runner, and each placemat will probably just be a large “gift” block.

The bow block is my first ever Foundation Paper Piecing block, and it was a lot of fun. It’s by LoverOfLifeDesigns on Etsy, and aside from some confusing color numbering, it was an easy to follow pattern. I cut the size in half since the block as-designed was 16”.

The gift box blocks are a simple self design block built off the backs of every holiday box block I saw on Pinterest.

Luckily,I had all this fabric in house, though I accidentally used a shirting cotton for the white, hence the unfortunate translucency.

Will update as I progress.

now that the first images of him are being picked up it reminded me to show him finished! my scorchsona made from @beanbagbuddies4life’s pattern. It was a difficult little thing to put together but i trusted the process and he turned out super cute. I love the vintage fabric i picked up for this pattern as well.

Just wanted to share a hanfu I completed recently!

It consists of four pieces: a long overcoat, a sheer pink inner coat, a solid pink top inside the inner coat, and a black mamianqun (pleated skirt). The overcoat has patterned cuffs and a patterned collar made out of the same fabric as the mamianqun (if you look closely, you can see the pattern on the collar and sleeve cuffs on the mamianqun itself). On the back of the coat, I hand-painted a dragon and phoenix that was based on the design of the front panel of the mamianqun. (I do Chinese painting and calligraphy, so I just used fabric paint and some Chinese painting techniques.) The sheer inner coat is made of a sheer pink fabric with blue bias tape finishings on its collar and sleeves. The pink top inside the collar has an embroidered collar (jiaolingyouren, closes on right as per traditional Chinese garments) and ties on the inside and outside (not visible here because they are covered by the skirt and by the shirt itself). The mamianqun arguably took me the longest to complete: it has seven front-facing pleats and seven back-facing pleats on each side, which took me way too long to iron lol. It has ties that wrap around the back and tie in the front. All fabric except from the pink and blue solid colors is from Taobao, and the bias tape is from Joanns.

This is a pretty untraditional combination of garments; I've seen the mamianqun worn primarily with a square-neck top (not sure what this is called, but I think it was from the Ming dynasty period?), and never with a top with a jiaolingyouren. I modified patterns from the book "Traditional and Modernized Hanfu Pattern Making" by TT Duong, which I highly recommend :) The entire project took a total of 30-40 hours (conservative estimate) and the fabric painting took 7 hours.

Overall I'm really proud of the entire project! I created this so that I could enter it into the Scholastic Art and Writing Awards under Fashion (I'm a high schooler) and I had a lot of fun making it :) I'm thinking of making a green one next!
