Chai Shirt and Dress – Pattern Test for Itch to Stitch

Scarlett Moto Skinnies – Pattern Test for Laela Jeyne!

This was one pattern test I didn't actually jump in nor was I planning to! Jeans and top stitching and fitting adjustments were not something I felt ready for at this point. Somewhere in my vague sewing plans, jeans were going to be part of 2018. But when Marisa really needed testers in my size,…

But my favorite part really is how well the garments lay. Both my Arenal tops are among my favorites and something that I always reach for…
