Mastering inside pockets with french seams
I made a dress, that is apparently the same colour as Peckham in January. The blue light from the window in the studio today and all my grey and blue fabrics looked so great!
The blue at the back is cotton. The grey is crepe de chine (all second hand of course) and is pretty light - and whenever you're actually moving around and doing stuff and wearing light dresses it's nice to have reassurance that the back hasn't floated up in the wind or whatever - so this blue cotton weighs it down a bit, and is also just for a bit of extra resilience so it won't get caught so easily of you're sitting outside on the grass/climbing trees whatever. it also makes it sway a bit further away from your legs so it's a cooling system also, rad. Plus an all grey swag-dress would never do. It's basically for hot summers when you've been hard at work all day and now it's time to relax. highly suitable for this time of year.
Nice red legs from a too hot bath
