Magic Patterns begin

We are having a fun week in the lead up to our final assessment and having a play with some of the beautiful Japanese pattern making books. I have chosen a design out of one of the Pattern Magic books by Tomoko Nakamichi.

 

I have begun pattern making one of the pinafore style dresses. I can't wait to see what it turns out like!

There was a whole lotta cut n' spreading going on. (Note to self: Bring scrap paper next week! I have already gone through about 8 sheets of paper and I am have only done the front.)

Stay tuned to see what the toile looks like next week.
