I like a good theme-centric project to get my wheels turning. This one was related to the intended fabric, which was inspired by the 1996 movie, The Craft. The plotline was centered around a group of girls that aspired to be witches, and luckily it was actually on Netflix so I could reacquaint myself with […]
I generally try to sew something up for the girl for her birthday, since it is a special day. Having my birthday 2 weeks before Christmas makes you appreciate people actually remembering that you have a birthday. 😉 This was a last minute, start at 10:30pm and finish at 1 am, outfit. The fabric is […]
A few years ago I sewed up my girl an outfit inspired by Kira from The Dark Crystal. She still wears it, too, and wants more like it. Naturally, when Moonbeam Textiles created an 80’s movie inspired round including The Dark Crystal, and this order came up to sew up the samples, I jumped on […]
Oh, Zenith & Quasar Fabric, how much do I love thee? It’s not just because Lilly gives me free fabric, though that is kind of cool. It is because her panels look like this: You can actually make a matching back to your shirt out of her panels! It is a whole yard (for adult […]
I have joined another seamstress team for sewing up samples of custom fabric prints to advertise for their new rounds. These are from The Fabric Cottage, and this round includes Disney Villains. She sent me a 1/4 yard of the coordinate and an adult panel of Maleficent. I didn’t think that the coordinate went as […]
While I was waiting for the pre-order to come in for Sports Stitches at RP Custom Fabrics, this strike off sample came up on a charity auction. I just couldn’t wait, so jumped on the chance to buy it. That was at least a month ago, and I just didn’t have time to tackle it. […]
I purchased this galaxy swim fabric last summer from Zenith & Quasar (no longer available) with good intentions to make my daughter a swimsuit with it. I didn’t end up getting to it, so I wanted to make sure I got one made in time. She said she is over two pieces where she is […]
So, I thought to myself, “I got this! I am going to use a pattern block I know fits and just modify it for this dress. No problem!” Guess what? Problem! I had to redo the neckline and armholes so many times on this. The neckline is still too high, though. Maybe on my next […]
These are some summer tops that I drafted/hacked from either patterns I made previously, or by using the Sneha by Wardrobe by Me. I used my style sheet that I put together from tops I found on Pinterest: Then, I went back and looked at more tops. Here is the first one. I modified a […]
I won’t lie and say this sporty skort is for exercising. It is so I can be comfy sitting in the hot sun. I might try to go for walks before games, since we usually need to arrive an hour before game time. That would be a good use of my time, actually. I always […]
