I need your help...

Help me... I need to go for a "theme" in the items I sew. Should I be more hipster/indie/chic OR vintage/handmade? Does the difference between the two make sense? The first one would be a little more trendy meets indie-cool... the second would be antique store meets sewing clothes sorta theme. I could go either way, but I need a hook or a type of style to go for that will lead the message of my goods. Look at my work and tell me what you think:

i think the second one because you use a lot of flower prints and a lot of your fabric is from antique stores and such. antique meets sewing.

???

eeeh. They sound so similar to me.

i know they sound alike... but they're sorta different. think antique flower print pillow vs. funky applique tank top. which one do i focus more on?

I know nothing about this, but you do use a lot of appliques and decorative stiching (I'm sure it has a fancy name) if that matters.

Michelle said...

applique is sewing something on top of fabric. like the tank tops I do. good job mary helen.

Sky Girl said...

So what's the name of the fancy stitiching, like when you use another color or something that stands out?

Michelle said...
