G.O&C.W : Patterns (pictures later)

I have a onsie, a hood, , dress patterns, bags, and a shirt patterns.

I think I'll try cutting a dress pattern next to have a closer look at them. I want something fresh and suitable for autumn as well as summer, in case there's o time for anything else, before the next terms holiday.

Lately I have been making bottle cap pin cushions with stuffing and felt I had around.. Combined with embroidery, there is a lot of styles I can make.

Unlike the clothes I want to make, these pin cushions will go on my etsy and facebook pages.

And whilst I'm on Clothing trends for the summer I've found black and white is a trend, with a clashing trend of neon colours, with fewer patterned pieces this year, yet a lot colour blocking.

C.W : The Onsie

Listed on my Facebook account, a friend and customer. He has made his own onsie before (a Pikachu), but he has had no time this time round, having work and studies to do.

I have made a toadadile onsie for him to go to a Pokémon-themed party.

The body and tail turned out great, but I made a hood/hat that looked a little scary to me. It wasn't meant to be, I will be making more hats with some luck very shortly. Animal themed, rather than Pokémon.

I will be making a block from the pattern he lent me, he doesn't like the pattern paper. So I'll be making a copy in card that he would prefer, and it would make it easier for him to use.

So all that is left - is to use all the spare fleece.

Oh I'm looking forward to a new project

G.O. & C.W explained

Getting On and Changing Wardrobes











For separating the posts of life from those of fashion and other trends I am giving my posts a title, either G.O or C.W and sometimes both. To say they are about Getting On in life or Changing Wardrobes I know this won't be separating them into official categories but at least if you have no interest in either of the subjects you don't have to read them.


However I hope that separating them you might find something interesting or helpful.
