Michelle from Handmade Martini is right to give the original pattern which she totally redesigned credit. But this isn’t a remix. I would call this an original design! She used the popular Renfew pattern, a simple t shirt pattern, as a starting point for her design. Using a basic pattern that you know fits you well because you have altered is so much already to fit your body, tracing it, and redesigning the whole thing is called fashion design in my book, my friends! At least, that’s my opinion. Do you think a design has to be drafted completely from scratch to be your own? That’s for you to decide, I guess.

Justine, I know you’ve already seen my bubble pocket shorts but I couldn’t NOT join your party:) I’m thinking about trying to make something for me this week…last time was an epic fail, but I’m done nursing my wounded pride. Ready to try grown up clothes again lol! Thank you for having an awesome blog & hosting an awesome party!!
Hi Justine! You are too sweet! Thanks for the feature, I only wish I had the motivation to do one every week!
