Doilies

This is what happens when doilies meet a flimsy Forever 21 t-shirt.

I’ve fallen short of my goals this year for learning to make clothes. Between vacation, summertime socializing and a heap of new responsibility at work, spending my nights and weekends learning to sew hasn’t happened as planned. While I try to get back to very slowly learning what it takes to be a true seamstress, I’m experimenting with embellishing shirts. I’ll be teaching a beginners workshop in July on this topic and am trying to come up with some designs to display to get people excited to attend.

Would you wear this?

Next up: more ruffles than I can possibly handle.
