Monk's Habit

My second post for today...

Another client commissioned me to make his habit. This was a cool project to work on! I got to draft a pattern, source the fabric and sew the garment.

My client told me that his community wears dark blue. I checked out the local fabric stores and was able to purchase a navy poly-cotton knit at Atlantic Fabrics.

The garment itself went together quickly and easily. I did have to remove and redo the collar, but that was because I had purposely made it big (so as not to choke  a monk when he sat down), and then found out that it is a no-no to see the clothing that they wear under their habit.

Completed projects: 23
Remaining projects: 29
