Sew-What-You-Like Workshop - Day4

The 2nd day 

for the 2nd group

of  

2-Day All-Day Sew-What-You-Like Workshop participants

saw an explosion of finished creations

The delightful  JoAnne joined us for the first time

 having keenly watched the Blog for some time 

Jo had a pretty good idea which direction her creativity would take

starting with an unwearable wrap skirt
transformed with fabric & frogs
into the perfect skirt for summer 

an uncomfortable op shop sourced top
was refashioned into a one-of-a-kind wear-anywhere tunic

and two tops that weren't being worn
are now one top Jo will wear 

Sue has been a regular paticipant in workshops
for a few years now
 and has also joined me on every Busselton REtreat
I could go on for ages about Sues ability
suffice to say Sue is now coming to class confident enough to have created her own patterns
as evidenced by this Top
created by copying one of her favoutite tops



with only a few minor pattern adjustments
Sue now has a Top pattern perfect for her



which is also what happened with these white pants
starting life as an op shop sourced Size 24 
 after creating a replica pattern of her favourite comfy pants
Sue created the perfect for her Size 14 summer casuals
and the Top was refashioned from too-small to perfect-fit
by adding a little extra in the side

knowing what to expect

Elise came armed with her already cut out Change of Heart Skirt

only this time we lined it

which means that Elise has earned the title of

first-ever-person-on-the-planet to create a lined Change of Heart Skirt

and after creating 4 zippered cushions 

Elise is well on her way to being an expert

earning her the other title of

 Studio Zipper & Cushion Queen

and our darling Kate

who is always so happy to be here

who fills the Studio with fresh air & light

nearly made a Tea Frock

which she loves so much 

there's plans to fill her wardrobe with them

Everyone that walks through the Studio doors is different

every creation which is created here is different
expectations vary from person to creation and back again
what always remains the same however
is the reward and sense of achievement
experienced on a similar level by everyone

so lets do it again
in November!
