Weekend Workshop - What They Wore

During the weekend workshop

Antionette joined us for the first time
and created a REinventing storm

starting with an op shop sourced
 too-small shirt



we REinvented into the perfect-fit Top
by adding the sleeves into the sides


and 
a pure silk floaty-like-butterfly-wings 
too-small frock

transformed into a wear anywhere
pure silk floaty-like-butterfly-wings
perfect-fit tunic


complete with 
twisted rose detail highlighting the neckline


the last piece finished during the 2days
was the piece Antionette wore home

a two-tops-that-don't-fit 
REinvented into
one-top-that-does fit perfectly

 

---oo0oo---

can't believe I didnt get a shot of the pattern Kate used 
to create her gorgeous 1930's styled cotton top



there were a few minor hiccups along the way

nothing reading & cutting the pattern correctly
and Frippery
 wont fix


and it's always good to keep an open mind 
when it comes to what you're actually going to make when you come here

the black linen fabric Kate thought would make great pants
was decided would make a better wrap tunic


 

complete with twisted rose detail


if you were thinking about joining us for the only 
2day Weekend Workshop left for this Term

the details are here.
