Well, its been terribly cold here in the great North. We had the coldest temperatures and wind chills in 25 years, so schools and businesses were closed. We all just hibernated and stayed inside. I sewed, of course! I received a strike-off from Sugar Ink to sew up for their latest round based on the […]
The 52 Week Sewing Challenge for this week was Sew Something Red. I already sewed up some underwear with some red in the fabric, but I wanted to do this, as well. I have seen some Assassin’s Creed inspired hoodies on Pinterest with the red and black colors in them, and thought they looked cool. […]
For the 52 Week Sewing Challenge – Week 3, the challenge was to sew a pattern you owned but had not sewn up yet. I had downloaded the free Bell Town Vest from Straight Stitch Designs at least a year ago. It was also the pattern I had planned to use for my furry vest […]
I made some more underwear, and took out pretty much all of my scraps to try to find my little gems hidden away. My sewing room was a mess. I was running out my lace elastic, so I had to make do. I cut some of my thicker lace down the middle for some of […]
I know…so exciting! I am like most people, I think, where underwear is the last thing you think about replacing…and the most often worn. I have had the same batch I bought from Victoria’s Secret at least 8 years ago, and they were in not great shape. Add to the fact that my butt is […]
This was a fun and quick sew for Fabric Anthropology that I just had to get a Dany wig for the photos! This is the Dothraki panel with a black cuddle minky that I picked up at Joann’s, I think. All you do is serge them together, leaving an 8 inch opening. Turn right sides […]
I will have to get on those “2018 wrap up” posts, but I am so behind in just posting everything in general. I will sit down next week after the 1st and work on getting caught up on everything. For now…I have a purse! This is my boxy purse that I made taller, so I […]
I have been wanting to make this scarf for all of this year, so I decided to finally make it this past week. I knew it would be a bit slapdash to make it. The waterfall nature of the scarf with varying lengths just look like you start cutting and see what happens. Which is […]
Hey, I sewed something up this week! I have had this cut out for a few weeks, so I finally got around to sewing it up. It is basically this same top, only with a longer band around the bottom and deeper pockets. This is only 2-way stretch, so it is a bit tighter around […]
I am a sucker for red fabrics. Anything I can mix with black usually ends up in my shopping cart, since I wear it so much. Having my kids’ school colors as red and black definitely helps, since I try to wear the fan colors at their tournaments and games. This is the Flash lightning […]
