A while ago, I finished up a top/piece of clothing. The results were surprisingly good because it was my second attempt of creating something that was hand sewn. I think the zebra pattern was an appealing choice and it ultimately added some sense of style to the piece. I’m not too fond of the current fashion style but I’m sure it consists of patterns(vague).
I tried to fold the edges in but then decided to add a small patch instead.
It created a nice uniformed edge. To make it less prone to damage, the edge of the sides were cut. (Sorry for the lack of terminologies, I’m hoping to expand my knowledge in the next few years).
The back of the piece is simple. Some improvements would include the increasing of the size of the shoulders.
I’m looking forward to making some more pieces. There’s a lot that you can learn in a piece of clothing.
Awesome! You are an incredibly diverse artist!

Nice! I hate sewing clothes, I always seem to mess a seam up and then have redo it, which stinks.

Attentiveness is crucial when it comes to sewing. But once you get the hang of it, it’ll be worth it. Good luck sewing!

I love that fabric. Zebra is such a good pattern (is it called a pattern if it’s found in nature??), I wish it was more prolific in the shops.

It’s not a common pattern. I guess you could call it a nature pattern, there are some many sub genres of patterns.

I love the stripes. Very cool. I don’t know if I can pull off animal prints on my body, but I’ll definitely get the clutch or shoe version. x

It’s not really something that you would wear in public. You could but you would have to match it with pants. I went out a couple of times in a full zebra patterned, head to toe outfit and I received some polarized impressions.

You can do that if you want. It’s called “making a statement.” I have a zebra patterned scarf. It’s beautiful to look at but I can’t wear it around my neck. It just washes me out. So I tie it around my bag strap. Better effect. Good luck with your next project. x
