Denim Project



Went right into sewing after patterning and cutting the fabrics!


Triangular cross-stitch piecing and double top stitch for angled seam illusion.
Inspired by my "Magmatic Child" CFDA Fall collection design project from the previous semester. I incorporated sharp angles and contrast top stitches. I paid close attention to pocket details and color combinations for this project.
