Short Jacket and Pants

One more post before I call it a weekend...

Indian Inspired Brocade Jacket

I was feeling a little cultural on Saturday. I have a couple of work colleagues who just arrived in the US from India, and I'm very excited to meet them in person. As I perused my pattern stash, I thought I might make something inspired by the beautiful fabrics in saris. I cannot pull off a sari (and it's just too damn cold here), but I thought it might be a fun way to show my cultural appreciation when I get to meet them next week!

Holy Hardcore! It's a Handmade Holiday Hootenanny!

I did not buy a single present this year. For those on my list, it was a Holy Hardcore Handmade Holiday.

Camo Pants

I found this awesome Camo fabric at Vogue Fabrics in Evanston, IL during my small business Saturday FART (Fabric Acquisition Road Trip). I've been waiting to use it, searching for the right pattern, and I thought I found it. Don't get me wrong, it's a great pattern, I just used the wrong size.

Zip Front Fleece Jacket

Apparently I can't just stick to the pattern. I have to modify things!
