Our pants post this month provides step-by-step instructions and photos of a lapped zipper application for your Eureka! Pants that Fit. In our Eureka! Pants Licensing Seminar last month, I demonstrated this lapped zipper technique since some of the students were not confident inserting a lapped zipper. This is my favorite…
It’s a stash busting week again as we look at my orange linen unlined duster made with the Rain or Shine Variations (RSV) for the Tabula Rasa Jacket (TRJ). Like last week’s black and white top, this warm orange colored topper is perfect for the change of seasons here in…
Sewing black and white tops is so practical. They can be paired with either black, white, or bright colored pants moving from season to season in style. (If you don’t wear black and white, imagine that I am writing about your favorite light and dark neutral colors.) Earlier this summer…
Rain or Shine Variations (RSV) gives you so many new looks for your Tabula Rasa Jacket (TRJ). Today we will look at an easy summer blouse that features the jewel neckline on this center front opening pattern. These two beautiful Liberty of London prints had been sitting on my shelf…

Summer seems the perfect time to wear a pair of cool wide legged pants, so I decided to try my hand at creating some. Step one, as always, search the stash for an appropriate fabric to test this idea. Lucky for me, my darling daughter has brought me several lengths…
The seasons are changing, so all of a sudden my unlined summer Tabula Rasa Jackets (TRJ) are coming out of the closet. Just like summer pants fabrics, the fabrics I choose to sew for summer tops are light weight and washable. So, their engineering needs to be washing machine safe too. Today…
We buy fabric for all sorts of reasons: it is a great print, or the perfect color, has the right drape, is the perfect fiber combination, will fill a hole in our wardrobe, will bliss the heart. Now I will confess that I also buy fabric to match an…
