Picture by Maria Woods

Welcome to my "Pictures" page of my Sewing Room. If you have been to my other pages, you will know I keep repeating over and over "please be patient, I'm still learning." Come back often to view the changes in the coming weeks.

Following are pictures of some of my work. This is a very small representation (I usually don't take pictures of things I sew). Email me if you have any questions or would like to discuss your ideas on a project. (This page takes awhile to load; please be patient).
I apologize in advance for the quality of these pictures. I really need to take better pictures, but was anxious to get this page up and running. When I get new pictures I will post them here and I will be changing the projects on this page (hopefully often).

Brocade Cocktail Suit

Vogue Pattern - Doublebreasted jacket with princess seams and fitted skirt with back hem vent.

Upholstery weight brocade (very pretty - can't see the "real" pattern of it here. Tried to scan some - doesn't come out well). Colors: mauve background with teal, rose and gray flowers. Fully lined with gray polyester lining.

(My bridesmaids dresses for my wedding had this fabric as the bodice with a drapery moire in mauve for the skirt).
