First of all, thank you so much for those of you who commented on my previous post! I am so encouraged and excited. Also my apologies for not responding back to each comments – I’m really bad at returning comments:( so I wanted to thank you all here!
I never really wear red. Perhaps its because I have a solid black hair, and the combination of straight long black hair and the color red reminds me of a china doll? But something about fall made me want to make clothes in rich, red color, the color of fallen leaves.
These ladies below wear red very nicely – the left is from the Sartorialist and the right is from Natalie off duty.
Luckily, I found a cranberry red color jersey at a recent trip to Nippori. It’s a mixture of cotton/wool, and it’s really warm.
I know you’ve seen these designs before – I haven’t come up with any new designs recently. I have some ideas that I want to try, but I haven’t drafted the patterns yet.
Oops the skirt looks wrinkly in these photos! Gotta iron them.
