Make it Again… and again… and…

One of my Make Nine prompts is “Make it Again.” It’s a prompt for a project where I can use an existing pattern or a technique with which I’m familiar, to expedite “getting to the good part.” Here are another pair of Valencia one-seam pants and another long-sleeve (I’ve also made a few short sleeve versions) Bristol knit top.

The Bristol top and Valencia pants patterns from The Sewing Workshop.

Garment details

The knit is from Art Gallery Fabrics and the pant fabric is a woven from Diamond Textiles.

Another “Make it Again” outfit.

I always add pockets to my Valencia pants. Where else do you put your kleenex and your car keys?

Patch pockets added to my Valencia pants.

On the Bristol, I added top stitching by hand with a variegated 8 wt. perle cotton thread at the yoke. The sleeve cuffs are also a different knit print.

Hand stitching at the yoke. Contrasting fabric for the cuffs.

Two makes in two days. It’s “Make it Again” in all its glory. Can’t beat that efficiency!
