TAVAlonia<p>Studio work for a client yesterday involved improving this vintage jacket she inherited from an elder family member. <br>I took it in at the shoulders and front breadth, allowing me to shorten the sleeves through the armhole at the same time as removing the space formerly allowed for shoulder pads. <br>Then I added these pockets that are sort of a hybrid welt/buttonhole pocket. The velvet ribbon forms the simplest of decorative finish for the openings, which I kept narrower to minimize showing too much of the pocket lining at the opening. Normally, I would have made a facing, but not enough fabric came from the sleeve head adjustment. <br>Anyhoo- it turned out well! <br><a href="https://mindly.social/tags/upcycling" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>upcycling</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/reDesigning" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>reDesigning</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/ottawaSewist" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ottawaSewist</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/alterations" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>alterations</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/sewing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>sewing</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/pockets" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>pockets</span></a></p>
TAVAlonia<p>Is that a photo of a side zipper? Nothing special, right? <br>Heh- the entry into the dress remains in the centre back to allow for hair and makeup to be done before she gets into it. <br>There are two of these side zippers installed during the alteration to allow for… drum roll, please… breast feeding. <br>Yep. I rock. No question… 😉<br><a href="https://mindly.social/tags/brides" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>brides</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/bridal" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>bridal</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/bridalalterations" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>bridalalterations</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/breastfeeding" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>breastfeeding</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/accessibleclothing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>accessibleclothing</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/ottawaDesigner" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ottawaDesigner</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/ottawaSewist" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ottawaSewist</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/OttawaBridal" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>OttawaBridal</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/sewing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>sewing</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/weddingalterations" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>weddingalterations</span></a></p>
