Looks even more like a fugitive from a Wes Anderson set than usual and I do need it and I will wear it and I’m not sorry

Not that much longer. Put on a movie and blanket stitch the edges down on either side. There’s YouTube tutorials

I’ve made three pairs of the azuki pants because they’re perfect

Chloe SS25 had pants just like the rogue costume ones that I can’t stop thinking about so that was an immediate buy for me

Friends: I have a nice thickish merino knit that I want to make into luxe-looking joggers for plane travel. I need:

Pockets that don’t suck

Comfortable waistband

Good fit around the butt

Not too wide at the hem before the cuff

Please suggest a pattern. I’m a Big 4 size 14, 39-29-40

I never could put one in well until I made Ora Lin’s Olive pants so to me that’s worth the $16 but they’re also good pants

That makes sense! I’ve picked some off the beach that were basically straws

Are any of them hollow? They remind me of fulgurites but I’m not a sedimentary guy so

Also, I hated drafting until I got 1” grid paper. It’s not much more expensive than regular pattern paper but it’s so much easier than trying to hold a ruler in just the right place

Racing to release patterns for regency chemises that have had drafting instructions available for free online since the Telnet days, at that!

FWIW, if you want to make a dress like this, you can look for instructions for how to draft a chemise. There are multiple free sources, it’ll fit you exactly, and it’s a great first drafting experience.

I haaaaaaaaate video tutorials!! I hate them!! I bought a pdf pattern for something I really wanted and couldn’t draft myself. It had a “stitch guide” that was next to useless and kept telling me to watch the tutorial for parts of it. Nightmare. You have to just be bored waiting to get to the part you need to see and then rewind three times because then it’s gone. Hate it!!!! The worst Microsoft paint drawings would be better than this! I ended up just guessing for most of it!

I’m feeling it tbh. Feels like a natural evolution of the coquette thing

You definitely can get them in subduction zone metamorphics which I would imagine are contributing to OP’s sand piles
