tie style drawstring: paseo de doña blanca

tablecloth into dress

before and after: vintage Neiman Marcus cable cotton sweater

before and after: woven sweaters

My favorite weather is longsleeved mini dress weather!

The top green wavy sweater is vintage Jhane Barnes, silk woven in Japan. The multicolored sweater is vintage Norm Thompson made in Italy.

new style: crossback spaghetti strap flouncy vintage fabric sundress

As I do not use “regular” sewing machines and also avoid zippers and buttons, I developed this style to easily go over your head and cross at the back, as a breezy, Summer sundress.

And I am excited to sew up my vintage fabric collection!!!
