Ecru silk linen pants update

Ok....almost done....got a late start...but I expect these to be completed tomorrow for sure


Ecru 100% silk linen pants

These should be completed by tonite


Labels

Just made a new batch....I used to hand paint them...but it became too tedious....so now I use my husqvarna designer one to make them.
Use 5/8" to 7/8"  grosgrain ribbon....and nice embroidery thread.

Vintage headwraps

Very inspired by the 50-60s era right now...The dress and grooming.

These are vintage silk headwraps I made...half turban half scarf..
great for a bad hair day...or or if you just want to frame your face with beautiful silk....:-)
