Full zero-waste outfit today featuring my #PierceShirt and #LettieSkirt. I'm off to speak to a group of high school students about zero-waste pattern design.

Taking a break from my own pattern making to test the #MRJigsawPants by Marlies Reukers. Holy moly, this pattern is 🤯.

Taking bets on how long I can keep this white shirt clean 😂 I have four kids and live in NYC so I'm guessing not too long.

This is a sample of my upcoming zero-waste pattern: #BiasShiftTop.

This hand-stitched button loop didn't turn out how I had hoped, but it works. I'll have to practice more. Or maybe I'll stick to a thread chain button loop. What's your preferred method for making button loops?

Good thing I've got a stash of random single buttons. Now to decide which one to use.

After lots of frustration figuring out what I did wrong, I'm finally ready to sew. Tip: measure a million times and cut once. Also, make sure your spreadsheet is correct and takes all the seam allowances into account.

Taking the freshly made sample of my new design out for a spin. Part of the design process is wear testing and I'm hopeful this version passes the test.
