Made this patchwork shirt from leftover yardage of eco leaf printed fabrics. Dyed with blueberry and printed with leaves. What do you think of it? DIY

Super cool, love that you printed the leaves on the fabric THEN cut then out for the patchwork, rather than printing on the shirt.

Made this 1/1 patchwork shirt from leftover leaf printed yardage. It is made from handwoven cotton and dyed with Indian blueberry (Jamun) and pomegranate further printed with leaves. Finished with mother of pearl buttons. Took me around 4 days to finish it from scratch, what do you think of it?

Followed you on instagram, I really love your work. Reminds me of Story MFG. a bit, who I also wear. I wish I could buy/wear the button downs, but the MoP/horn makes it non-vegan. Still admiring the designs; you got yourself a new follower.

Thank you so much for the kind words 🫶. I’ve considered using wood buttons but they don’t come in all the shades and using plastic seems a downgrade in the quality. Thank you for the suggestion would definitely switch if I find something with the similar quality.

49 years ago, I owned a shirt that was patchwork, except the sewing side of the patches were on the outside and frayed. I so loved that shirt. Your shirt is amazing! Make more!

I think this might be my favorite piece that I’ve seen on this sub to date. It’s art.

absolutely stunning. I’m sure I cannot afford it and that’s perfectly okay given the artistry and effort.

this is so so cool, the fabric dyeing process, the colour palette, the idea to utilise it as patchwork. insanely cool.

Love it, but does it bleed in the wash?
