#garmentsewing #sewing #truebiaspatterns #truebiasaster I trace my printed patterns onto tracing paper first so I can make modifications where I am between sizes. I love each step of sewing garments. It is a big methodical puzzle. 🪡

Fully complete Aster dress with Rifle Paper Co. peacock fabric. Totally happy with it. I love the vintage buttons I got for this dress when I was in Orlando. The buttons and buttonholes were fun and easy. On to the next project. 🪡 #sewing #garmentsewing #truebiaspatterns #truebiasaster

All done except for the buttonholes and buttons up the back. She is a real beauty y’all. I loved this pattern. No seam finishing required as all seams are encapsulated in the lining. With this fabric, this was a dream to construct. 🪡 #garmentsewing #sewing #truebiaspatterns #truebiasaster

#ootd Friday night date night, dinner at Fortu, a favorite fancy place. This was the Aster dress’ first time out of the house. I love this dress. My love for clothes is profound and deep. Even more so for my self-made items.

I am sitting with my legs crossed on an ottoman (the husband calls it a hassock) which is also covered in fabric by Rifle Paper Company, the same peacock fabric but at a larger scale. The ottoman was made by Target in a collaboration with Rifle Paper Company a couple years ago. Me standing on the steps leading up to the patio at Fortu, a restaurant in St. Petersburg. There is a large arched awning over the top of the stairs which says FORTU in all capital gold letters. Me sitting on the patio at Fortu. The restaurant’s sign can be seen right behind me, as well as Pioneer Park on the right
