About Me

I just finished a detailed tutorial on giving a classic button-down a whole new look; you can find the full guide in my latest post Adding a false placket to a button-down shirt. I'm Victoria Lucille Anne — VLA for short. This is where I share the sewing and DIY fashion projects I've been working on, from garment makes to creative experiments with fabric. You'll find blog posts covering pieces I've sewn, pattern explorations, and the occasional handmade gift.

I also share video content on YouTube, where you can follow along with my makes in more detail.
