Garment Pattern #3 is finished!

The first two fabrics have arrived and I've finished the design for the third pattern and it's been ordered. It's more similar to the first pattern than the third. I'm not quite as happy with the second fabric as the first. It's all my own fault because I didn't check the scale of the pattern before ordering and it's slightly too big. Everything else is fine though.

I have to praise Spoonflower again for their excellent service. Sure it's slightly pricey but the quality is great and I couldn't be happier with what they've done. I highly recommend it for all of you artists out there who are interested in fabric printing your work!



In other news, I signed up for MICA's Art Market today so expect to see some progress on that soon.

Another Forgotten Pattern

I'd also forgotten this one. It got lost in my pattern folder and I hadn't realized I didn't post it on my blog.

Leaves

I completely forgot to post this pattern when I made it a couple weeks ago. I'd like to do more leaf patterns because fall is my fave! But thesis has taken over my life.

Garment #3 pattern

Here's the rough draft for garment pattern #3. There are subtle differences between 1 and 2 but I can't decide between them. Also there's something I like about the blue but in repeat it doesn't look quite as good as the others. I think the blue is just a nice change from the first two patterns.

Garment #2 in progress

Although my fabric is here (yay!) I can't start sewing until pattern #3 is out for printing. If I don't stick to my schedule the pieces won't be done in time. In the meantime, pattern #2 is out for printing and is expected to be here in approximately two weeks. Just in time for pattern #3 to be finished. Anyway, here's #2 in progress.



I fixed up a few things since I posted it last. Whitney Sherman, my independent study professor suggested that the leaves looked too much like bat wings and that I should invert them. I completely agreed and I think the result is great!



Here's my sketch for the garment. I'm not quite as thrilled about it as the last one. Although, I'm pretty confident that it'll look good with the pattern I've created.

Lastly, here's my muslin version. Again, I'm not as happy with it as the last one, but I do thing it'll look good when it's finished.
