Working on choosing embroidery colors for my 3rd look. The first green and the last metallic green are my favorite! I plan to do a small sample of a few chain stitches in each color to make my decision!

 

Week 10

 Week 10 - Hazel

During Week 10 I did some finishing touches on the Vishuddha dress. I also worked on sourcing an embroidery service for the patches that will decorate the Ajna jumpsuit. I prepared the files by separating each eye/flower design onto its own artboard and emailed the business I found about my order. Then I started brainstorming the zero waste pattern for the Sahasrara romper. 

Week 9

 Week 9 - Hazel

    During Week 9 I made my second prototype to confirm that my patterns were ready. After deciding I was happy with the adjustments I made I was ready to start the final garment. First I had to deconstruct the Vintage dress I was repurposing. Once all the pieces of fabric were separated I started deciding where my new pattern pieces could be placed and cut. I was able to fit almost everything except the lining so I decided to use a scrap of bamboo silk leftover from another project. I sewed the final garment together and had a fitting with my model.
