Initial sketch for our @powwowsanjose yarn bomb. Monster piles for the trees outside the San Jose Museum of Quilts & Textiles (@sjmqt). We chose a site that lets us show some love to fiber and textile arts, which donât usually get much love in public. In fact, the fact that these kinds of crafts arenât usually seen in street art is what inspired us to start putting our work on the streets in the first place!

Our first day back in our hometown for @powwowsanjose began by proudly raising the festival flag at city hall, followed by a fun tour of local art with the other artists. So stoked to get this week going!

Halloween costumes finished! We recreated this vintage cycling outfit to go as Victorian ghosts. The sweater is based on this photo of a casual sport piece from the @metmuseum archives. Itâs machine knit with hand knit ribbing, hand made buttons, and all hand seamed. Lorna cheated on the body and made a drop shoulder, boat next square with a mock turtleneck. The sleeves are seamed a bit up on the shoulders totally cheating but who cares! We basically treated my body like a yarn bomb and pieced it together, tailoring along the way. Yarn is a mix of sport, worsted, and bulky acrylic from @knit_picks since itâs one of the only yarns that comes in the same color in all 3 weights. It took forever!
Jill made the skirt, corset, and petticoats from McCallâs and internet patterns she scaled up. The skirt is a beautiful blue herringbone flannel from @joann_stores with hand made buttons.

Lornaâs proud of this sleeve seam on her Halloween costume. Itâs simultaneously Kitchener stitching, mattress stitching, pleating bulky knitted fabric, and gathering all in one swell foop! Recreating a vintage garment from a photo. Canât wait to show you the finished project!

Beautiful hats & organic? bonus. love these all. That green is fabulous!
Thank you, I’m glad you think so about the organic! Is the mint or olive more fabulous, do you think?
