Applique on Clothes: Chanin Style

What could be better than applique on quilts you might ask?

How about applique on clothing?  Well, at Verb, where I sometimes teach, they are getting quite into the work of Alabama Chanin.

I will confess that I am a sucker for an Applique Opportunity like this, and I'm thinking of trying my hand at making a skirt.  Ok, and a tank top too.  Ok, maybe with a jacket.

Project Chanin-Way, here I come.

I have never tried to make clothes before.  This ought to be....interesting!

Maybe I should take a class...here's to hoping she's teaching near me soon.

I am totally obsessed with all thing Chanin right now. Going to try my hand at that skirt you posted. Did you know that everything is 20% off right now on her site (check out those amazing DIY kits!) through the end of June? Use celebrate at checkout:)

I just love applique - where-ever, when-ever, and I also love Alabama Chanihgs work. Not sure I could applique my cothing and have it look as good as hers, mind you, do show us what you come up with!
