Huh. Pretty great shorts. First zipper fly and all.

I bought a remnant without knowing what I’d do with it and managed to squeeze shorts out of it.
I did a few fit adjustments. Next time I do “real” pants, I’ll use bias tape to make the insides pretty.

First zipper fly (test project, so I wasn’t worried about the zipper colour).

Effing witchcraft.

Top-stitching the sleeve. This totally worked on the muslin. 🤞🏻

It’s starting to look jacket-like #ClosetCoreKellyAnorak

Cutting into the nylon shell fabric now for the #ClosetCoreKellyAnorak and it’s… not easy. I need a bigger kitchen table? And sharper pins. Because I don’t have a giant cutting mat for rotary cutting. Oof. Gonna be a long night
Omgomgomgomg finally cutting into the (lining) fabric for my #ClosetCoreKellyAnorak
I’ve been putting it off because this will be the most complex item I’ve made. I’m doing the lined version and this is the lining. There are eleventy billion pattern pieces and I’ve only adjusted the length. Also ended up with over 1/2m extra fabric and I only shortened 2.5”
Hopefully my muslin didn’t lie
Ungh. Trying to make the first cut. This fabric is so pretty I’m having a hard time chopping it up #sewing
I knit my socks, which means I also #mend my socks. Darning is soooooo satisfying. #knitting
Declaring feed-bankruptcy. See you at the top
