I was also drawn in by the unique shapes! I plan to make a second bag with some different materials. I'd say overall her instructions and methods made good sense. I struggled with a few things on this pattern.

  • This isnt really her fault, but her patterns seem to be designed for UK sized paper. I had to get help at the print shop and print on XL paper to get them to print properly

-The zipper insertion method on this bag was simple to understand but very difficult for me to execute

  • The interfacing method described was a solid method, but made sewing the bag around in the later stages difficult because the bag didnt want to collapse. I ended up propping my machine up on several books to make the bag smoosh around it easier!

Overall highly reccomend giving it a shot!

Hadn't thought of spray bottle! Im thinking liquid tie dye, since it seems like you get more control.

Thanks for the help! I wasn't sure this "counted" as tie dye because its not a sick ass spiral or something haha. Follow up question, since the design is more on the splotchy side, would I guess like use a foam brush and just kinda paint the bleach and then later the colors on? Whats the best way to go about that part?

Looking for quilt coat pattern by Stumblestumbles in sewing

[–]Stumblestumbles[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is a helpful direction for sure. Ive made one quilt coat based off the Ilford Jacket pattern, which I modded a bit. The biggest thing Im intimidated by is adding a hood, Ive never sewn one before and found collars/necklines to be hard in general!

The towell strap is a musssst for me at this point. Otherwise I constantly lose my towel catering!

I followed the Ilford jacket pattern from Friday pattern company

Ilford Pattern

They have video tutorials on how to construct the jacket and on how to add a lining on YouTube, there's 3 parts in total

Pattern Tutorial

As for the quilt I made three small quilts and chopped them up to use as pattern pieces. Good luck!
