Vintage Wool Auburn Blazer

Robin (of Stash) and I decided to sew blazers last spring. We had a sewing day together, did a ton of work, but a blazer takes longer than a day to sew, and I stalled out once I got home. Cooler weather and the #Worktober prompt from Alexandria Arnold got me in gear to finish it up!

Indigo-Dyed Haskell Shirt

I've been planning some indigo dyeing after listening to a very interesting presentation from Jackie Reno about the indigo process from growing your own indigo, to fermenting it, to dyeing with it.

Improv Quilted Jacket

This was such a fun and satisfying project! 

I pieced this jacket entirely from linen and linen-blend scraps from my previous sewing projects, and then I hand quilted it.

Paisley Cashmerette Vernon Shirt

Last week I said to myself, "Meg, you need a new white buttonup shirt. A classic, simple, white buttonup. The one you made a few years back is a little snug and a little stained."

Sweatah weathah is basically 8 months per year in Vermont, but we are currently deep in full body sweater every time you open your door, and even when the door is shut season.

Brocade Holyoke Skirt and Cotton Modal Dartmouth Top

I had a fall wedding last week and I really struggled with what to wear/make, but I ultimately landed on something that was super comfortable and pretty classy, I think!

Rug-print Appleton Dress

I know this isn't news, generally, and it's certainly not news from me, but just a reminder: the Cashmerette Appleton is a magical unicorn of a dress.
