I don’t think I have made six birthday dresses for her, but it was her 6th birthday. I didn’t start sewing for her until she was a little over a year, and I think her 2nd birthday was the first time I made anything special for her to wear on her special day. She was pretty […]
This was a Mother’s Day present to me. I made this on Mother’s Day as I was given many hours of uninterrupted sewing time. This is a dress that I drafted myself. I had to make a few modifications, but in the end I really like how it turned out. It fits my body well, […]
S.W.A.P. = sewing with a plan for those not into the online sewing terminology. Basically, you try to sew a coordinating group of items. I tried to make some coordinating outfits for our trip to Vegas so I didn’t need to buy anything. Ha! Like that worked! I did use some of the items I […]
I decided I need a new purse for the trip, so I did a new fabric design. I wanted it to fit my camera, a wristlet and some books for the flight and for carrying around. First I figured out the dimension that I wanted the purse to be, and then I designed the fabric and […]
Right? It’s getting there. Sloooowwwwwly but surely we will have some warmth. In about 2 months. I cut out these shorts late last summer, but never got around to making them. They are from a Built by Wendy pattern. The back flaps in the pattern are not real pockets, so I changed it by adding real […]
This skirt was a fail in the sewing department. The seams are bunchy and the hem is uneven. Still…I wanted to wear it at least once since I spent so much time on the making of it. I should have just cut a simple skirt on the bias and that would have worked so much […]
The kindergarteners were supposed to have yellow shirts at school, and Anya didn’t have a yellow shirt. I did what I usually do…make something for her. Unfortunately, she wore it and it was still in the wash on the day she needed to have it. Of course! Luckily Kailan had a yellow shirt (with one of […]
This hairstyle is good in multiple ways. If I do it when my hair is wet and fresh from the shower, the next morning I just take them out of the braids and they are all nice and kinky. Instant hairstyle! I did have a shot of the style from behind, but I didn’t realize […]
I’m looking forward to Spring, but unfortunately we still need to wear sweaters around here. Hopefully, soon… Skirt – me Black top – me Sweater – Ann Taylor Loft Jewelry – Silpada Shoes – shortly to be in the trash. The bottoms are coming off. 🙁
