• Did you know the #MarigoldDress includes a pattern for a skirt as well? And just like the dress, IT HAS POCKETS. Because we skirt wearers have things to carry. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Get the Marigold pattern at blankslatepatterns.com Here it's made in a rayon challis fabric.
  • Sylvia @theravelout hacked her #shorelineboatneck to add ruffles on the hips - and I love this creativity!
  • When I was younger I often skipped the muslin step of making a pattern, but as I grew older and more concerned with fit, it became a step I rarely miss. With pattern development multiple muslins are a fact of life. Excited about how this one turned out, can't wait to share more later!
  • My favorite Valentine on the last date night we had - which was back in December for his football banquet. We should probably make it a point to have a date night soon! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Hope you have a happy day celebrating whoever you love, whether it's a significant other, a friend, a pet, your family.
  • Slowly, oh so slowly, things in our new house are starting to feel normal and like home. Having my machines out helps. I can't wait to have a good chunk of quality sewing time!
  • Nicole @niczorek made a quilted #denvertunic and I think just the color is enough to keep me warm! So pretty.
  • Shared a hack to the #BlancTshirt on mellysews.com. You can head over there and see how to add this split hem to the Blanc (or any banded shirt). There’s also a direct link in our stories today. This sweatshirt has been on constant rotation for me.
  • Ingrid chose a bright and colorful floral for this #sorasweater. Great way to bring spring ahead a few months. :) 📷: @sewingridd
  • I intended to make a #tilleryskirt like this one last year and never finished it; maybe it's time to get to work!
  • Grace's creativity! She added a circle ruffle to the seam on the long sleeved #blanctshirt. Beautiful effect. @grace.creating

Sew This Look with Austin Tee + Tillery Skirt

In our Instagram feed, we sometimes share RTW (ready-to-wear) looks that we come across that would be easy to recreate with a Blank Slate Pattern. We are excited to share our first look with you!

Sew This Look With Blank Slate Patterns

Use the Austin Tee to create the 3/4-sleeve tee, and place the tie a few inches forward of the side seam. Here are a few fabric options (affiliate links):

And of course the Tillery Skirt would be spot-on! Just swap out the snaps for buttons — you could use wooden or coconut, or even jeans buttons. This mustard twill (affiliate link) would work great.
