There has been a lot of fashion talk around here lately. I have been working with the girls in my teen sewing workshop, they are learning a lot about sewing, for most this is the first complete garment they have made. We are working on a fun tunic, with mixed fabric sections-it has an apron like feel.
Also this week there has been a great discussion of fashion over 50 with Julia Moulden and she has a new book “Ripe” about the topic. So this has been at the other end of the spectrum from my teens. But it all works for me. I love working with the the students and talking about their style ideas and projects. I also think People of any age want to look good but also be comfortable. But for me it also has to be creatively unique. Even when I am 80 I will still be looking at and learning about all the fashion and style out there, it is what I do.
Here are some items I made a while back. Part of the silk painting I spoke about in my last post.
