My accomplishments this week Focus Photo – Sewing – I made this top, which received a ton of likes and comments in the Facebook groups. I haven’t gotten a lot of comments (or any) lately, so it was nice to get some love for something I drafted and made. It’s funny that I got […]
Well, it was a year. The year started out with Meniscus knee surgery for my daughter and a shoulder surgery for my grandma. This was followed up by new floors (finally), which led to a leak in our furnace and valves needing to be replaced due to jack-hammering of tile above it. That same week […]
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 spent some time cutting up a bunch of leather and had enough to make four of my small purses. I got two of them finished up, and think that I can successfully put together a tutorial on them. Just as soon as I figure out how to get the pattern pieces into Illustrator. These […]
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 […]
As I am having so much fun making up my designs into repeat patterns, I thought I would go into a little of how I create them. I start out by drawing a design by hand. Once my design is all done, I take a picture of it and bring it into Photoshop. I delete […]
The holidays are now upon us! It has been a busy few weeks, with not much sewing in store. I did cut out a bunch of projects, but haven’t gotten around to it. My accomplishments this week Focus Photo – Last week was Thanksgiving and this pretty much sums up the girl right now. I […]
Last week I “focused” mostly on drawing and creating patterns, so that was fun and something different. It seems like I need to change up on what I am working on or else I get bored and just don’t want to work on things. I have definitely hit a wall with my sewing lately. I […]
