Gingham blouse action - Butterick 5365. It looked hopelessly frumpy on the pattern envelope, made up it looks vaguely like a vintage pregnancy tunic. I’m fine with that! Sewing red buttons on as we speak.

Modified Schoolhouse Tunic made from ‘Deer Border Print’ by Kayo Horaguchi
Photoset reblogged from I want your lungs to stop working without me
“Underfall” is a tablecloth prototype envisioned by Kristine Bjaadal. In this case, if you spill a glass of wine or juice over the table, the liquid will be absorbed into the butterfly pattern of the cloth.

Lately I have been very inspired by menswear - suits, vests, ties - and I want to make some stuff for myself! It doesn’t get terribly cold in L.A., but it’s definitely not summer out there right now. Almost finished with a jacket, next on the list is blouse, vest & KNICKERS. The gentlemen are all from “Jocks & Nerds: Men’s Style in the 20th Century” by Richard Martin & Harold Koda. The last picture is from this blog, click for more awesome pics.

my favorite fabric made into a coat! yoshiko jinzenji fabric - we called it ‘patches’ but I have since learned that it possibly says ‘happy birthday’ in a pictoral language that she made up. pattern is modified from a japanese pattern book that mio told me was titled ‘she always has the natural thing’: ISBN 978-4-579-11234-0.
