Cristin is my sister-in-law’s best friend. They both came to me a few years back with photos from magazines and ideas. Cristin wanted something with a halter top…not really my style, but I was eager to give it a shot. She is tall and gorgeous and I wanted to show off her back and legs.

This was made from some extra soft vintage cotton that I had inherited from my great-aunt. It worked really well with the shape and the drape of the design. There are in-seam pockets…of course! and I used little accent buttons for the collar and at the top of the zipper.

I made this dress version of the green wrap top also while I was in school at FIDM, and is for sale HERE.

I made this top out of light pink and tan cotton. It wraps around and ties in the front, so it is pretty adjustable in terms of size, though it was made on a size 8 dressform. It is fully lined and comes to a V in the back.

Thank you to my friend Katie for being such a great model.

I made this top out of light green and yellow cotton for a class project at FIDM. It wraps around and ties in the front, so it is pretty adjustable in terms of size, though it was made on a size 8 dressform. It is fully lined and comes to a V in the back.

Thank you to my friend Sarah for being such a great model.

Batik Skirt

This skirt is The only thing I have ever sold on Etsy!

This fabric was originally a center square featured in a duvet cover I made years ago. It was surrounded by brown fabric and I loved it. Unfortunately about a month later I adopted a light orange kitty and his fur was showing up way too much on my bed. I had to stop using it.

BUT I wasn’t going to let that beautiful green fabric go to waist, so I made a cool little skirt out of it!

Hope you like it!
