Stripes

July 11, 2018

This was supposed to be an entry for the 52 week sewing challenge last week, but I ran out of steam and did not get the pictures uploaded.  Oh well…add it to the many weeks I missed!

This top is made from a fabric pattern I drafted and then printed on Modern Jersey from Spoonflower.  It has one of my designs as a part of the stripe.  I printed this one with a horizontal stripe.

The pattern is my own and has a v-back to it.

The skort is another two fabric designs of my own:

I like to add pockets to the shorts  underneath.  I did two-toned for the shorts for fun.

I drafted the skort pattern, too.  I wanted the fabric piece to be the front of the skort, but it needed to be a little shorter.  I generally like my skorts to be shorter, but had to make it longer for the design to be on it.  I printed them on Performance Pique.  The single design is printed on a fat quarter.

So, hey…I sewed something that was NOT a strike-off! 🙂

    1. Thanks! I have TWO pockets…one on either side! One for my cell phone and one for my keys. It works really well. 🙂
