Aladdin Alterations & Design

This just in! Our neighborhood paper... Thank you, Paige Wallace, for your great writing..pretty much sums it up!

3 more tops ! One more week of messing around until I'm back to work. It's been a lot of fun❤️

Items for the collection! Unisex moto jacket, blazer and vest, all in cozy fleece. The blazer/vest comes with pants as well. I'll try and get them modeled on a human soon. This is serious leisure!

Just hangin' in the bathroom in the latest design..At this halfway mark in my creative break, I've decided to shift gears and concentrate on a "capsule collection " of cozy fleece designs, including this one, a 3 piece suit, and a couple separates, which I'll post soon. Where to sell? That's the hard part for me to figure out, but I'm having fun grading pattern sized, sourcing materials, and just having some time to play around!

A few more photos of recent designs...

First 2 designs complete! The dress is of printed stretch velvet, and the jacket is a vintage bedspread with vintage liner. Feels great to be playing with fabric again❤️

Remember when? Marjorie Skinner has curated a show of Portland's fashionable zeitgeist moment, of which I'm stoked to have been a part of. It was a magical time of creativity, diy life, and cheap housing! Hope to see you at the opening!
