  This is (yet) another variation on the Jalie 2908 stretch jeans. The pattern is for flares, but my kids are all about skinnies these days. Just for fun, I added some ruching to the bottom of the fr…

  tanitisis added the project called The Dread Pirate Roberts Shirt

  

  Despite the title and the season, this is not a Hallowe’en costume shirt. This is made from McCall’s 7123, an out-of-print and extremely over-sized pattern from the 80s or early 90s. With a couple …

  I found 4m of this fabric—-a lightweight red with white polkadots—-at the thrift store and knew it had to be a sundress. The pattern was loosely inspired by the Katjusha, but I made significant c…

  This top is made from McCall’s 3838, a 1970s blouse pattern. I lengthened the hem to get a tunic length.
