Greenstyle Creations, My Makes

  May sewn garments

Whistler Jacket, Warrior pants, Elevate crop top, and Power bra.

For the month of May, I decided to create a mini capsule. In my capsule, I have used the Whistler Jacket, Warrior pants, Elevate crop top, the Power bra, and I used Greenstyle fabrics. Years back I first tested the Warrior pants and made them in the carpi length and ever since, I always wanted a black pair.

Shown below my first pair.

Below are my current black Warrior pants, love them in black. These pants are made out of jersey fabric and paired with the Elevate crop top. Love this outfit, I hope to use when I get a chance to go out salsa dancing, I may tie the sides together at the lower hem.

I also made the Whistler jacket to match my outfit. For the print, I used Greenstyle fabrics, the black contrast is a Ponte fabric.

To top my outfit off, I also made the Elevate crop top, I love this top. 

Lately, I have been having problems with my shoulders where bra straps usually go. So I decided not to use any bindings or fold over elastic to see how comfortable it was on my shoulders. It was so comfortable and does not hurt my shoulders. My power bra is lined with the same fabric and topstitched. My power bra is elastic-free, with no elastic in the band either, complete comfort.

DS Paige woven skirt

Road Test 

Paige woven skirt

a Designer Stitch Design

I participated in the Road Test for the Paige skirt. Paige skirt is designed for woven fabrics. For the grey skirt, I used a lightweight denim fabric for my muslin. After 3 tries at adjusting my muslin, I am very happy with the end fit. I will be using a grey skirt as an everyday skirt. I paired my skirt with the Weekday Kat top (also from DS) but in a knit version, which I sized down for.

I then used a flocked type of denim fabric for my final. I made this one 2" shorter, which I will use as a skirt for an evening out. I like the overall shorter skirt. I also paired the blue skirt with the Weekend Kat top (also from DS), this top is in rayon fabric.

Overall, I love this skirt, with the zip back, tie belt, belt loops, beautiful set in front pockets, and the topstitching. I knew I needed to take my time with getting a great fit and the topstitching, well worth the effort.
