I love my boat dress but I don't have enough opportunities to wear it so today I cut up another piece of clothing that was lacking. I used the shapes from foresails on the front and knotted rope patterns along the edges and bottom hem. I added some simple lacing as rigging to one side and some more ladders and rope to the back and one sleeve. It's pretty comfortable and will get a good durability/movement test when I wear it to work later :)I'm suddenly thinking of all those other clothes that are a bit dull, or ill fitting and wondering when I'll have time to work some magic on them all. This was a no-sew project, which is my favourite thing for textiles, quick and easy.
