Hello I’m Sophie. Welcome to the beginning of my sewing journey, come along with me through all the mistakes and seam ripping! And hopefully feel some solidarity that there are others bumbling their way through this hobby.

Due to some unfortunate or maybe actually fortunate circumstances I ended up with 1 yard of mustard colored yellow wool. Originally I hoped to make a pelisse out of 8 yards, but had to change my plans. Out of all the ideas given to me by the lovely folks on Instagram the idea stuck that I should make an 18th century short cloak. I realized that the reason I wanted a mustard yellow cloak is because of Claire’s gorgeous ensemble during the Paris past of Outlander. Mine will be much simpler and made out of wool instead of silk but still inspired by it. This will hopefully be a versatile piece in my historical wardrobe, and maybe even for time I want to history bound.

sewist and make many mistakes and use questionable at best techniques
