Finished this custom piece for a client today… travel #hoodie with deep side seam #pockets #silk #charmeuse lining the hood, a natural button closure and I decided I would rather make a #boundButtonhole than a machine one. I went vertical as gravity would help hold the piece closed and it suited the narrow double stitched folded back finish. #customClothing #ottawaSewist #designer #uncededAlgonquinTerritory #creativeAndPractical

Just confirmed I’ll be teaching an evening sewing class in the spring ( April to June) at the Richard Robinson Fashion Academy.
I’ll cover a lot of professional and haute couture techniques in the 10 week course. The description on the website is non specific at the moment, but even once we confirm the project plan, I always personalize the lesson where I can to accommodate the students in attendance!
Ie, a skirt can be turned into a useful, well made tote bag with the right tweaks
