Historical costumes can have overlocked edges -- on the inside! But any stitching that is visible from the outside has to be done by hand.

The brick red tunic gets all sorts of hand-sewn details, but the blue wool hosen will hardly be seen, so I can use machine-sewn hems and a machine-sewn eyelet to thread the (cotton) laces through.

Adding an interfacing by hand: a calm moment of handsewing in an otherwise hectic day.
For this winter coat I am adding a 50% wool interfacing. It will support the outer layer of wool (which is a fantastic shade of magenta!) and it also adds some warmth. This back panel is now ready for the next steps, but the front still needs its interfacing added.

These innards will be hidden behind the lining and I love showing a glimpse of its magic.

You can find this interfacing and more on my website (Divinicouture.com) as well as in the Etsy store (divinicouture.etsy.com).

A few years ago I made a before winter coat for this gentleman. It was much loved. And with all garments that are worn with love, at some point the love can't hold it together anymore.
Time for some repairs!

The pockets in the side seam are just tearing away at the seams. Not something you can just patch. So I will be putting new pockets in.
There were some other small things that need a loving look, so I will go over them all. A few new buttons to replace the one he lost, and so he's got a few spares on hand. Because a quality bespoke garment that is loved, lasts longer!

Now that I am working from home, the cats are providing some excellent services. Here is Doortje (15 years old!) keeping an eye on the neighbourhood while I am cutting out a pattern from paper.

It takes some adjustment for all of us. The cats can't believe I no longer leave the house to get to work. And of course I need to take extra care not to get cat hairs on everything!

Today is a pattern drafting day. The book from my tailoring school is always a great reference and it's always there to remind me if I don't quite recall the steps.

A sweet client coming in to discuss her wishes for a warm winter coat brought me a sweet housewarming gift: Yogi tea Chai!
Thank you so much, you shouldn't have, but I am loving it ❤️
I've filled my porcelain mug (it's not plastic!) with some, the lid will prevent it from cooling down too fast.

We had a wonderful chat and she picked a cyclamen wool with a dark grey lining and black piping. The black piping will be the border between the deep pink facing of the wool and the dark grey lining, a handsome detail that very few people will see. Looking forward to making this for her!

Cloaks are back, just in time for Halloween! These two colours - the deep black and the army green - have always been my best sellers. They are the first to be added back in stock now that the workroom is back up and running again.

Not your colours? Not to worry! The 100% wool cloak is available in 12 different colours. How about a lush burgundy? Or a deep purple? Maybe Red Ridinghood red is more your style?
Find them on Divinicouture.com and Etsy!

I can't believe it took me this long to get the workroom ready, but today I feel I'm ready to get back to sewing. The thread boards being put up is a lovely finishing touch!
