The great sewing room destash continues apace as I have been repurposing embroidered vintage linens into some summer camisole tops - above and below photos of a top with a tie front neckline.
I used basic self drafted patterns and then inserted a panel of patchwork which I had stitched using pieces cut from vintage doilies, tablecloths, traycloths etc.
More about this summer sewing project on my vintage sewing blog
here.
Happy stitching everyone x

its gorgeous - really pretty - wonderful work - its so hard to find a use for those pretty linens
Thanks everyone, I agree Eimear and I usually use these for cushions etc but thought it would be good to try clothing. I have plans for a jacket next! x
So lovely. Great refashion.
