Vintage Pattern becomes Modern Dress

Ellen loves a touch of vintage

She has used a vintage Butterick pattern and made some very simple adjustments.

By leaving off the sleeves and yoke, folding over a casing and adding a tie, she now has a modern summer maxi dress.

Ellen has also been making some overalls for her nephews.

Cute hey!

Inspired by books

It's always interesting to see where students get their inspiration for sewing

Kate is making herself an Aline skirt from 

The Essential A-Line book

Sally has made a pair of reversible bubble pants for her baby niece from the Growing Up Sew Liberated book
