She makes a lot of her own clothing and she&#8217;s done some really clever things, including converting Oliver + S patterns to make dresses for herself. I love what she did with the Passport Dress, and how she&#8217;s wearing it more like a jumper with a blouse underneath. For this dress Jessica used a sturdy black cotton twill with a subtle silvery grey stripe.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.sewlisette.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/Jessica-NYPL.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-1827\" title=\"Jessica NYPL\" src=\"http:\/\/www.sewlisette.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/Jessica-NYPL-400x600.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"400\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sewlisette.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/Jessica-NYPL-400x600.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.sewlisette.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/Jessica-NYPL-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.sewlisette.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/Jessica-NYPL.jpg 426w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Click through to see the rest of the photos.
