The totally hilarious Anne (Prttynpnk) from Pretty Grievances has launched a festival parade of animal print for January (and maybe the following months??). This fits in my current plans for SWAP with Artisan Square as one item is already in my SWAP and the other was planned to sew anyway as a hopefully "wearable toile".
These are the plans:
Wearable toile for Vogue 8815 in a wine coloured cheetah print.
This is a stretch rayon which I think will lend itself well to the pattern.
The last couple of weekends I have been watching "Plus size pattern alterations" craftsy class which uses this exact pattern. I have been altering the pattern along with Barbara (teacher) and am about 3/4 done. I have had to add quite a bit as this pattern doesn't come in my size. I traced the pattern off and have altered the size and am up to changing the dart positions and bust.
I am happy with my progress and should be ready to start on some sewing soon.
Next up is StyleArc Creative Cate top in a earthy toned mish mash of animal.
This top and fabric is already in my SWAP - however I am thinking of adding a matching skirt - the StyleArc Susan skirt.. The fabric is a medium weight ITY knit from fabric.com.
What do you think - matching animal print outfit - too much????
