    Love how your dress turned out. The colour of your jacket is perfect along with your dress. I sew and I use patterns as a guideline for fit and then I can be more creative.

    Are you talking about making a Japanese Kimono jacket? That' a wonderful idea. I have been thinking of making one for myself (using Japanese patchwork hand mending stitching). Kimono jackets, dresses, coats, and shirts never go out of style (depending what fabrics they are made from). Your Kimono style jacket is beautiful on you. It will be perfect for the upcoming weather changes. Yes, it need pockets and a sash (or belt). Wonderful
    You could save what is left of that old yellow hoodie with patchwork. I saved an old sweatshirt with patchwork. First, I sewed a large, 100% cotton patch on the INSIDE to cover all of the damaged area on the front of the shirt. I made sure all the raw edges were turned under on that big patch. Second, I carefully removed all the damaged sweatshirt fabric leaving only that patch to hold the shape of the sweatshirt together. Third, I basted 100% cotton batting (wadding) to the patch. Fourth, I basted a very large Mariner's Compass quilt block (that I had already made for that project) over all of the patched area. Fifth, I pinned the quilt block in place; and, Six, I machine quilted the patchwork compass patch from the inside of the Compass out (to make sure nothing moved. Seven, I finished the raw edges on the Mariners Compass with some fancy machine stitching. That up-cycled sweatshirt was a hit at the local quilt show.

    PS...Suggestions: I prefer linings that are lighter, inside of bag has lighter fabrics... Thank you for all your time and efforts.

    Love the jacket the peacock dress with bleach spot why don’t you cut out spare
    Pieces of fabric and sew on top and one patch on front of the peacock with nice stitch make it look a feature and perhaps a bead lv Jean Canterbury uk

    Your bags and pouches are beautiful. It sounds like you need to make more coin pouches. The longer the video is the less likely I am to finish it. Plus, I have no idea how to pay to view any videos. They never give me a Snail Mail address where I may mail a check (to pay for the rights to view their new videos). I hate it when this happens; but, there are a lot more videos that I have never viewed.

    The blue top is to big in the neck on you. And you should have used dark blue tread the base color of the top to top stitch.
