Making a halter top from a vintage bedspread.

Repurposed the fringe too for this cute top. Laces in the back to make it fitted to your body.

You can make one too. Pattern out now 💕

It laces in the back and can be made in 2 other styles: a fringe one and a vintage towel version too 💛💛

If you want to make your own the pattern is out now.

Custom vest using a vintage towel 💙

Sometimes I don’t hit a home run the first round and that’s ok.

I learned a lot from this custom and in the end I took it as a learning opportunity instead of beating myself up over it.

Turned out real cute IMO

Custom lace up halter using a vintage towel 💛

Got the pleasure of doing this cool custom order last month.

This color has to be one of my favorites. Always makes me happy when I look at it.

This is also a sneak peak of my next pattern coming out real soon!

Lace up haler with peplum 🌼🌼🌼

Something I’ve been working on for over a month.

The peplum is optional but I love the feminine touch of it.

I’m in the middle of finalizing the pattern. TBD for the release. I’m shooting for early April.
