A Tale of Two Jackets (New Look 6231)

Repost from @sewnmagazine
I had the pleasure of being part of sewing online with an eclectic group of folks I’ve haven’t me in IRL. I’ve been fangirling @mikeandmollyshouse with her dance like no one’s watching reels home projects, so I was excited to participate. Our first project was @truebias #landerpants. I made the short version since it’s summer and I need clothes. I added 1 3/16” to the crotch length on the back and took the center back in 3”.
I’m a sucker for conspicuous prints that don’t align with my introvert tendencies. Swipe for a few of my #ankara makes. My latest make is featured in the June issue of @sewnmagazine and I have a few more Ankara prints on deck (and in the hole) to share.
Fabrics for the month. I got a bit aggressive with 6 projects I want to finish for July. Three are from the same pattern, so hopefully that’ll make it more feasible for me. (I have two projects I dragged through all June that I’m finishing up too, so we’ll see)🤷🏾‍♀️🤞🏾I want to get some wear out of them for August and September. Will post in my stories my progress throughout July. Wish me luck!
Made it to the rink in my M7841 hack. I don’t stop other skaters for pics because we all are in our zone but got an impromptu photo shoot thanks to @skatebeastbeautyn 🥰
Save the date! Come ride the double Dutch bus with us. Come for free turns, stay for the good vibes. Saturday, June 19th, 11-3.
