Finished: Rigel Bomber by Papercut Patterns

Oh yeah, a BOMBERJACKET!

For my birthday last year, my eldest daughter Ieke gifted me a mystery foxes fabric. I loved it but was a bit lost what to make from it.
It wasn’t too stretchy, but still a bit on the spandex side. I decided it would make a super nice bomber jacket.

There are a lot of bomber jacket patterns released, but I really wanted a jacket with pockets (because DUH POCKETS). And if there was a pattern from a designer I already knew, it would get bonus points.

It is almost May and that means it’s time for MeMadeMay!
Last year I tried to join, but because I only started sewing 4 months earlier, I didn’t have much me made clothes.
This year I’m in for real.
Well, I did took the pledge at Zoë’s Blog (the organizer of MMMay17)

I, Niki, sign up as a participant of Me-Made-May ’17. I endeavour to wear a MeMade garment each day for the duration of May 2017 and to discover which garments i’m missing in my wardrobe. I want to have a sewing plan for the “missing” garments at the end of May.

DIY print screen set

I got the DIY print screen bug too.

The idea of screen printing your own fabric it appealed to me so much. But working with the photo emulsion, a pitch black room, exposing it to light etc etc.
Nah. It’s too complicated.

So when i saw images on Instagram popping up with the hashtag #wearebobbinhood, all with the most amazing examples of print screened fabric, I was curious.
They were all made with the same kit from Bobbinhood. Lees verder “DIY print screen set”
