Zodiac rounds

July 30, 2017

Here is the next print in the Fun Round pre-order at RP Custom Fabrics.  This is the round with the signs of the zodiac.  I have to admit, I do not have much knowledge in this area.  I know my sign, and occassionally read a horoscope, but that is pretty much it.

I found these images to try to decipher what was on the print:

So!  That was the detail, now onto the sewing.  I wasn’t really sure what to make with these.  These just seem a bit dark-ish.    The sizes I received were a few medium rounds.

Once the girl saw them, she claimed them.  They were just the right size for a simple dolman sleeve top for her (self-drafted).

I tried my best to match the front and the back at the sides, and did fairly well at that.

The skirt is a circle skirt with an overlay (self-drafted).  There is gray ponte underneath the black cut-out fabric, which has a bunch of holes in it.  The shorts underneath and the waistband are ponte.  It is a bit heavy, but turned out pretty cool.

It is kind of a fun outfit for a little tween that is going into middle school in the fall.  She was pretty happy with it, so I call it a win!

The pre-order closes on August 15th, so get the prints if you love the moon and astrological signs…or if you just think it looks cool. 🙂
