The offcuts of an offcut: giving the Mira Dress scraps a second life

The Mira Dress in mulberry by Baue

Something new is taking shape in the studio.

You might remember the Mira Dress in mulberry. Like all Baue pieces, it was made from gathered remnants and vintage fabric. When it was finished, I saved every scrap and tucked them back into my fabric drawer.

Recently I pulled those scraps back out. There were just enough to cut a couple of new tops, as long as every pattern piece was placed with care.

I think finding a purpose for every piece of fabric is the part of making I love most.

The finished pieces will go to my mailing list first. If you'd like the first look, join here.
