“I’m wearing a thrifted shirt, some pants I made, and my lion. His name is Bombo. I thrifted him in Chicago and ended up putting a strap on him so I could take him everywhere. I was in love with the fact that he didn't have a function other than being a stuffed animal and decided not to make him into a bag until recently when I needed him as a carry-on for a flight. What inspires my style is lots of patterns and colors and anthropomorphism. I started making my own clothes when I couldn't find much of what I wanted to wear in stores or what I did find was super expensive. I just want to create something beautiful and sentimental.”

🐤🐦 yellow and blue 🐦🐤
Please enjoy this unintentional madeline cosplay featuring my newest make 🐤
I found 3m of golden yellow linen in a charity shop and decided luck was smiling on me, so I patterned out this ruched bodice with cap sleeves. This dress makes me feel like sunshine :) I finished it early so I can wear it on my birthday!
Handmade yellow linen dress styled with thrifted items - vintage straw hat, second hand blue leather satchel, and second hand blue brogues.

“The pieces I’m wearing are all self made, partly of old second hand clothing scraps. My style surrounds futurism mixed with old Victorian fashion and todays gothic clothing. I also listen to alternative music wich has a big influence on my pieces.”

I made a little cape for fall. It's made of wool and linen. This is my first new sewing project, I usually mend, recycle, and alter existing clothes.

I made this skirt/jumper combo for Molly based on the Pleasant Company pattern for her school jumper, which also provides a skirt option. I bought the cutest corduroy with wee wale in both red and navy awhile ago and finally got around to making something from it. I added the jumper straps and they are removeable so now she has two different outfits. I just put a little bit of velcro inside the waist band for each strap.
I really thought I got this idea from a book somewhere, but I think the page I'm thinking of is this jumper from Molly's World, which talks about separates but not convertible dresses/skirts so...either there's another page somewhere or I made this up completely.

“I’m wearing a two piece set made out of a Frompy dress with a super fun print that I thrifted a year ago. I literally finished making it an hour before leaving the house. The hat is a Khaotic Stylez original piece hand made by me. I made it about a year ago as a prototype and it’s been sitting on a shelf waiting for its time to shine. At this moment everything inspires my style! There’s so much in the world around us to be inspired by why limit myself.”

My latest piece is a jumper from a 1970 McCalls pattern made out of two thrifted tablecloths and a flannelette bed sheet that begged to have some Wes Anderson bullshit pulled with it. Vlog coming in hot!
[Photo ID: Photo 1: In a grass path surrounded by greenery, Grace, a young woman with shoulder length red hair in two ponytails gazes out with her hand shielding her eyes from the sun. She wears a gold beret, a yellow, green and orange jumper dress, a poofy sleeved white shirt and brown shoes.
Photo 2: In the same outfit, Grace Poses stiffly in front of the red door of a stone light house. She looks up and to the right.
Photo 3: In the same location and outfit, Grace swings her arms and gives a jaunty kick. She grins at us. End ID]

Made a quick little shirt for summer (so much brain space has been freed up that I immediately started like 6 different projects)
One of these days I'll figure out how to do the burrito method correctly so my seams lay flat 😒
