Part of the fun and one of my main reasons for sewing is that I am not limited to the whims of ready-to-wear. I love to experiment by combining unusual fabrics and trims. This can be an unexpected surprise when you combine things that don't traditionally belong together.
This is my latest My Label jacket. I used the Belted Jacket pattern from the My Lable 3D Fashion Pattern Software and shortened the sleeves to 3/4 length. It is still in process, but I'm applying a very delicate black lace trim around the collar and the ends of the sleeves. The delicate lace contrasts nicely with the large yarns of the plaid tweed fabric.
Do you have any unusual combinations that you would like to share?
