Hoods and Seams – The Final Spectacle

It's a Spectacle - hood and back view

A detachable hood is the perfect accent for a spring coat like the It’s a Spectacle Jacket we have been considering for the last two weeks. (Week one was about designing the jacket, week two took a close look at the zipper and collar details.)  It’s easy to see the…

Home Dec Hooded Jacket

Last winter I searched my studio for zippers and stash fabric to test the Rain or Shine Variations (RSV) for the Tabula Rasa Jacket (TRJ).  One of my favorite finds was a navy home decorator remnant I had purchased years ago at G-Street Fabrics.  I remember loving the art-deco print…

Pants with Summer Pockets

Light weight unlined pants are perfect for hot summer weather in Baltimore. This “cool” pair is made from a cotton sateen border print I bought on clearance at a JoAnn’s a few summers ago.  They are easy to wear with flip flops and a white t-shirt but their design was…
