I love the embroidery I like the way you carried the line from the top of the slit up to the waist. And wouldn't it be fun if you continued that line up to the shoulder and somehow made that shoulder the focal point. Just thinking out loud. Your work is so inspirational! Makes me want to go out and try it. Love your blog!

The pants have potential too, and I can only speak from my own perspective, but as much as I do love the wide leg intention, the fit would have driven me nuts to the extent of cutting them up too. Even so, I'm sure they fit just as good as many a RTW. Perhaps we are all too hard on ourselves. The gold stitching is just amazing.
