PLAN vs INSPIRATION| I think about finding the right balance ⚖️ between planning your sewing vs following the most recent strike of inspiration. Sometimes the easier to give into my latest obsession than trying to force myself to go through my planned projects first (I just don’t have the discipline!). The key is to bend the inspiration towards something that will work well with the other garments in the pipeline and your existing stash of fabric. Case in point, I suddenly became obsessed with a loose linen wrap blouse/top. But I’m using the white double gauze from my French mini stash and I hope to make it work with my just sewn #persephonepants and upcoming #morganjeans The pattern I’m using is @sewhouse7 #bridgetowndress Hopefully it will turn out like the image I have in my head 🤞🏻 . . . #sewing #sewingblogger #handmadewardrobechronicles #sewcialists #sewistsofinstagram #indiepatterns #jecouds #jecoudspourmoi #sewsewsew #sewingplans

WORN STORIES | #miymarch19 So happy to have finished this 💯 handmade outfit! Because i move often to places very different from one another, I have noticed how what I want to wear and sew is influenced by my location. In warm weather countries ☀️ I have to make an effort to include light and bright colors in my wardrobe. As soon as I am back in Paris or New York, I turn back to my true self: wearing all shades of grey, black and brown! So I’m calling this my “Parisian spring outfit”. And by the way, the hat is just for the picture 😉! Details: 1. @burda_style shirt pattern 113 from 03/19 Issue, striped cotton from @tissusdesursules 2. @annaallenclothing #persephonepants in black denim also from @tissusdesursules @thatwendyward @dressmakerssocial . . . #sewingpatterns #sewing #handmadewardrobe #handmadewardrobechronicles #jecouds #jecoudspourmoi #sewistofinstagram #sewcialists #parissewsocial #sewsewsew #diyfashion #slowsewing

POCKET | Another quick #persephonepants tutorial in case you want to be a little closer from the pocket of the actual Jesse Kamm Sailor Pants, the pockets bags are cut in one piece instead of two. 1. Mirror the pocket bag piece along the bottom edge to create one long pocket bag. 2. Cut 2 (instead of 4). Here i used striped cotton but the pockets are usually cut in self fabric. 3. Stitch one short edge of the pocket bags to pants front between the dots, right sides together. Clip. Topstitch the pocket opening. 4. With the pocket laying on the right side of the the pants, fold the pocket bag, overlapping the short edges, stitch the sides of the bag at 1/4” on each side. 5. Turn the pocket bag right side out and to the wrong side of the pants. 6. Stitch again the sides of the bag at 1/4” to create a french seam. DONE! . . . #sew #sewingblogger #sewingtutorial #isew #jecouds #sewcialists #sewistsofinstagram #handmadewardrobe #diyfashion #sewsewsew #indiepatterns

TIP | Back to sewing some #persephone pants and I’m just showing you quickly how to reduce gaping in the button fly area. 1. Stitch the fly facing as instructed and the button fly as instructed (up to step 15). 2. Pin the button fly to the flay facing making sure you catch only the fly and not the pants. 3. Unfold the fly and stitch a straight line between each buttonhold, catching only the facing and the button fly 4. Topstitch as usual! . . . #sew #sewingblogger #isew #sewingtutorial #sewistsofinstagram #sewcialists #indiepatterns #sewsewsew #sewingpants #jecouds #jecoudspourmoi #slowfashion #slowsewing
