Rib Knit Finlayson

February 7, 2018

Here’s another Finlayson for Mal! This fabric is awesome – it’s a super stretchy 2×2 rib knit from Indie Sew (80% stretch to be exact). I sized down to a small but forgot to alter the shoulders, so we’ll call this a relaxed fit. The only note for this version…

Two more gift zips and laminated fabric!

January 30, 2018

I just can’t stop making zipper pouches! I made a box bag for Sam’s birthday and a makeup pouch for my swap partner in a post-holiday season secret snowflake exchange. The makeup pouch was really fun to put together! I used two colors of Andover metallic chambray. Knowing how gross…

January 24, 2018
