I participated in a podcast for fellow sewer and blogger, Lori. Her podcast last week was on taking better photographs of your garments, so I spoke to the basics of photography (lighting, watching your backgrounds, advantages of the DSLR, etc.). During my interview with her, I was constantly trying to evade my children so they […]
I decided to tackle making Anya’s swimsuit. I wasn’t overly impressed with the suits that I saw in the store and wanted to try my hand at it. I didn’t buy a pattern, but did pick up 2t bikini on clearance at Children’s place. I wanted it for the bottoms pattern, even though it had […]
I haven’t posted much sewing stuff lately, have I? The machine was put away for a few weeks and I’ve been feeling rather lazy. This one just HAD to be completed though. This little number is for my friend’s 5 year-old daughter. Her birthday party is Saturday, so I was on the clock for this. […]
Do not, under any circumstances, tell your aspiring superhero that you will make him a cape. Do not give him any forewarning of the impending cape. Just keep it to yourself until it is all finished and ready to present. Otherwise, you will be subjected to unrelentless nagging, akin to an 80-year old woman. Kai was looking […]
Well, I really, really hope that the size fits the winning bidder since it took me many hours to make it. Here is the flier that I am putting up and then I will put the outfit on the auction. Anya was not wanting to stand still for me, so those pictures aren’t the best. […]
I was busy yesterday…. I had all the fabric cut (mostly) and here is what I made baby girl. This is a rather non-traditional, but really, really cute, Easter outfit. She’s wearing it today! The pattern has little kitties on shelves with a metalic gold throughout as an accent. I added the pretty lace that has […]
This gift is destined for a little girl that is around Anya’s age. I’m pretty sure her mommy doesn’t check my blog, and since I just COULDN’T WAIT to put this one up since it is so dang cute, here it is… The dress, which is mostly from a pattern, is fully lined and snaps at […]
This was the first time I ever tried shirring a top with elastic thread. Shoot, I didn’t know elastic thread existed until a few weeks ago! Here is a tutorial on how to shirr and I found the elastic thread/cord by the elastic, not the thread, at the sewing store. For my machine, I wound […]
Here was my project this weekend. I made the pattern for these little pants to make the curved gathered section on the front. I added some pretty ribbon along the edge and a pinwheel at the bottom on each side. It has a vintage looking silver button in the center with flowers stamped on it. […]
This is a new set that I finished this week. I made a skirt (self drafted) with diaper cover, a pair of ruffled pants, and embellished an Old Navy colored t-shirt. Those little plain colored t-shirts are pretty cheap, so I can just match it to the fabric and do some fun stuff to them. […]
