I purchased this printed rock leather a few months ago and with an upcoming rock concert, I decided to make another sling bag. I also had purchased some skull zipper pulls, so got to use them! I added a zipper pocket to the back of this one, too. I did have to redo the pattern […]
I have been on a bag making spree lately. I don’t really have any recipients for these bags, and am mostly just making them in case I actually end up selling them. Mostly I’m just trying out some patterns and ideas. This one is based off a picture I saw on Pinterest with the front […]
This is one of my favorite surface designs that I have done. I love the colors of the fish and the drawing turned out really well for this yin yang design. I ordered this in linen and then coated it with Odicoat to preserve it. I cut out the circles and then cut it out […]
I asked my son to pick out a style of men’s cross-body bags from several pictures I had saved. He picked this one: I made some changes, since that overlap at the sides was going to be extra layers to sew through and I knew my machine would not like it. I boxed the quarters […]
After I made this whimsical print, I decided I needed to make my daughter something from it. I ordered a few of the versions and this one I ordered in velvet. It doesn’t photograph well, but it does match the green of the design. This purse design is a new one I made this fall […]
This year wasn’t a plentiful year, but I did have several designs that I made. A few I have printed and used for my sewing during the year.
Week 51: Sew Something with a Woven Fabric The lining is woven fabric. This was a quick make to go to a Black Stone Cherry concert. I needed a break, so we stayed overnight near the concert venue, which was the smallest we have seen them at. It’s a biker bar with an outdoor concert […]
I like to have dark denim stretchy pants to wear, and actually wore these to work. I do tend to over-dress at work compared to my counterparts, but sometimes if no one is really coming in I will wear something like this to work. My version of jeans. This is a basic straight-leg pattern with […]
22 May 28-Jun 3 Sew a Swimsuit This is a swimsuit that I cut out LAST summer. This could be in a WIP, as well. This pattern is a mix of my own bottoms pattern and the 5 out of 4 Patterns Agility Tank. I made this pattern several years ago, and like having separates […]
Week 26 – Jun 25-July 1 Clean your Sewing Space/WIP I cleaned the space as some of my daughter’s college friends were coming for a visit. I wanted to let them each have a room, but they ended up just staying in my son’s open room. At least I got it cleaned up…it needed it: […]
