A short middle-aged brown woman wears a black corduroy skirt with white top-stitching, a gray turtleneck and knee-high black boots with white topstitching.

I made the Slate Skirt from Closet Core Crew patterns In black corduro. It was my first time doing contrast top stitching. Well worth the effort!

Very nice! The fit is great!

I also have an adorable pattern weight.

They look fantastic! how did you keep the front flap from sagging, if I may ask?

So pretty!

Gorgeou!

Thanks! This is just the look I needed for a high school reunion. I need to feel comfortable and confident. I like these pants, but the construction of the pockets and zip fly are definitely unconventional.

Thank you!

I made the Protea pants from Paradise Patterns and the Bonn shirt from Itch to Stitch to wear together to an event next month. The pants are made out of a textured cotton and the blouse is made out of a semi-sheer Tencel dobby.

I made the Brooks Jeans shorts from @helenscloset.bsky.social. The fabric is a 9.5 oz burgundy denim from @stylemakerfabrics.bsky.social. I made one size down from the recommended size for my waist and hips. I shortened the rise and the yoke one inch each.

Great outfits!

Thank you! I loved making them so much!

I really only keep my phone in my pocket and they’re fine for that. I wouldn’t put anything bulky in them.

Thanks!

For sure!

Thanks!

These Falconer Pants are a @lovetosewpodcast.bsky.social baby. The pattern is from @helenscloset.bsky.social and the bull denim is from Blackbird Fabrics. I made a size 10 graded to 14 at the waist. I shortened the rise and leg because I’m 4’11” tall.

It’s so pretty! Lovely color!

Gorgeous! 😍

Thanks! I really like the pattern.

As soon as the Lazo jumpsuit was released by @helenscloset.bsky.social, I knew I had just the fabric for it. I’ve never purchased, printed and cut a pattern so fast. I can’t believe I finished this within a week of release. I love it!
