Its getting hot in here: Seamwork Osaka
8:00 AMSummer for me means hot. So hot, I take off all my clothes... Ok, just kidding. But...

So, cute skirts and dresses from my massive pattern stash. As a long time member of Seamwork (affiliate link) I've gotten a LOT of their patterns. Very nearly all of them. But what I haven't done is sewn them all. So as I was trying to decide what to try next, I picked out the Seamwork Osaka.

Because the pattern sits on the high hip rather than the natural waist, I knew I did not have to blend the waist size. I made a straight size 6. If anything, I could have blended the waist to the size 4 to get a more snug fit on my high hip.

Because this was my muslin, I actually made an identical inner and outer. I couldn't commit to 2 fabrics that I wanted to switch, so I just made them the same. I'm still debating what fabrics I might use next time. Until I find the perfect pairing, I probably won't make another. That said, this is a great pattern to use for a capsule as you can get 2 completely different looks from one garment.
