I sew quite a bit -- garb for Renaissance Faires, Salwar Kameezes for myself, dresses for my daughter...  You name it.   I enjoy wearing things I made by my own hand and seeing people in stuff I make.

I learned how to draft patterns because I was never taught how to adjust patterns to fit me properly.   On this site will be instructions on how to make a basic torso, back and sleeves.   This will grow as I have the time, but the graphics are a non-trivial issue.   It may take awhile.

For now, here is what I have.

The t-shirt dress is a simple and easy project to make a cute dress.   It works for children and adults.   I like them because they're pretty and cool for summertime, but still appropriate for work.
