I just finished this. Last night. I rarely get photos and get things posted this quickly so feel free to be impressed đ This is the Sew Sweetness Amethyst Project Bag. I was actually using the exterior fabric for some other organization type containers (to be posted when I finish them) and realized it would…
Now for something sorta recent but sorta old. This is the Seamwork Camden cape. These photos are from this past February when I finally finished it, but I say âsorta oldâ because I actually started it about 2 years ago. As in, I had finished everything but hemming the lining. But never got around to…
As I mentioned in the Cinderella costume post, I had bought tulle for a petticoat but decided it would be too much for that costume. So I decided to make one for myself. I did a super simple one just using the gathering foot on my serger. I had 2 rolls so I gathered one…
In the last post, I showed the Cinderella costume I made for my cousin. They live in the middle of the country and I just assume anywhere that isnât Florida is probably freezing in October at night. So I wanted to make sure she had a coordinating layer to keep her warm. I used McCallâs…
For Halloween of 2017 (I know, I know, some of these posts are WAY overdue), my cousinâs daughter wanted to be Cinderella. Â Who was I to say no? Also, I was pretty psyched to make her an awesome costume. One of my favorite parts is the back (above). I love the giant bow although itâs…
Hereâs another one from way back. This is the Seamwork Neenah. The fabric is some Ponte from Fabric.com that I had originally ordered as a potential fabric for my April OâNeil costume, but obviously didnât end up using. I was making it as a muslin for a dress I wanted to do for Costume College.…
Time for a more recent project. This one is the Sew Sweetness Tortoise Bag. Iâve been doing a bit more crocheting and knitting these days and wanted something to carry around my current project. The outer fabric is some Riley Blake that my mom gave me leftover from one of her projects and the lining…
Coming off the last piece that I made, this is what I made with the leftovers. I had just enough to eke it out. The base is the Renfrew shirt by Sewaholic (one of my tried and true patterns) that I just hacked down the middle and shortened. I really like the overall execution. I did…
Another old one. This is the 4 out of 5 Weekender Tunic and I wear it all the time. Whenever itâs clean. I made it using some acrylic sweater knit from CaliFabrics that was on sale (check it out â itâs still on sale!) It felt kinda stiff when I got it, but after a single wash…
I canât tell you how good it feels to be done with this quilt. This quilt was started over 10 years ago, possibly 20. And it is FINALLY DONE. But seriously, the problems I had with this quilt. At every step, it just didnât want to be finished. The pattern is from an old black…
