These are some lunch time sketches of GaGa jacket. (very rough) Next step is to make a small one to fit on my little body form to figure out how it will work.

Elton and GaGa updates
This is the Elton John Fabric. Holy cow! My client will slay it when he puts this on. Now I just have to make it. We had a great meeting last night and he had some good ideas about how to get the lettering on. I can't want to start on it.

new project
The vest - a success!
Here is my client wearing the prototype of the vest at a conference in Boston. I am very happy it worked out and excited to make better versions!

Product development and sewing all at the same time!
This is something I am making from a sketch, and conversations all at once! It is a medical vest that will shown at an event in Boston in about 2 weeks. So far, so good. But it is a chore to find out what works as I am making it instead of in advance.
It will have 3 layers, all with different functions.

pocket extension
My client had pants with really short pockets. You can see how her phone barely fit it in. I think some companies make women's pockets small since they think if women want to carry stuff they should be a "lady" and use a purse. Please!
I added additional length to them so her phone would fit. It was a little tough since the pockets go in first during construction so it is hard to change them later. But I did it!
