Samples for the new pattern

I'm about a week into starting a new pattern design. This one is called "Scarlett" and will be a tunic and a zip fronted sleeveless jacket. Here's some pictures of the first makes....

The tunic is made in one of my fabric designs called Lime Leopard and this soft knit jersey drapes very nicely for this design.

More pictures to come soon....

About Boho Banjo art to wear

I’ve been a multi media and textile artist for 20 years but as a younger woman I trained to be a fashion industry pattern maker. Recently I updated my 30 year old patternmaking skills to the contemporary digital age and began publishing pdf patterns. As a full figured middle aged woman I’ve been frustrated in my search to find artistically styled clothes that were comfortable to wear and flattered my shape.

I started the business “Boho Banjo art to wear” based on my desire to offer a style of clothing that is loose, relatively unstructured and that moves on the body when worn. Clothing that is designed for comfort and practical ease of movement but still shows off the wearers individuality through innovative cut, embellishment, detailing, colour, pattern and design.
