This blouse is another one of my sister’s projects. Several years ago I asked her to make me a blouse for my birthday using the same pattern as my white fitted blouse. I asked that it be pink with a different neckline and short sleeves, and decorated with whatever she thought would look good. I don’t remember if I specifically …
It’s time for the next entry in the Simplicity 8390 Vintage Blouse series. I actually started working on this blouse years ago, back when I was learning to sew. This was shortly after I made the black blouse with red flowers, the black blouse with copihue, and the green dress. I had originally planned to make a blue blouse with …
When I was writing about the black circle skirt I made for my youngest sister, I realized that I never wrote about my black dress. I must correct that oversight by making this post now. I originally cut and sewed the bodice to test the fit before cutting the more expensive red velvet for the Christmas dress. After a successful …
Well, I was actually intending to publish this pattern for Christmas. I had the bells all made and the pattern figured out. I just needed to take pictures of the first round, and with everything else I was doing in December, it just didn’t happen. In light of recent events, now it seems more appropriate to connect it to a …
It’s time for another circle skirt. This time it’s a black one made of ponte di roma. I made it as a birthday present for my youngest sister. Once again, the free pattern is the amazing circle skirt template from The Littlest Studio. The sewing is super quick and easy, and I just love both the drape and the way …
This is another skirt I made for my older sister, probably back in 2020 as a Christmas present. It is a free sewing pattern from Lekala, and it was actually one of the first patterns I downloaded, but I never got around to making it. Finally, when I needed to make something as another present, I decided to make this. …
Remember my purple velvet circle skirt? I made that in 2020, which is now such a long time ago. I’m guessing it was that same year at Christmastime when my younger sister and I were brainstorming gift ideas. We decided to make an outfit for my youngest sister, and this fun and twirly circle skirt in luxurious green velvet was …
Introducing my first skirt pattern: the Golden Autumn Skirt! I made this skirt last year, but it’s taken me a while to get it all written up. I’ve also been debating how and when to release it, and I finally decided to go ahead and publish it on my blog. There’s still some work to do, but later on I’ll …
This blouse was actually the very first thing I made from a pattern after learning to sew. When my dad went to take care of things at my grandmother’s house after she passed away, he came home with a box full of sewing patterns that she had used when my mother was growing up. This pattern was among them. My …
There are less than two weeks left in the countdown to Christmas. I just realized I haven’t yet had the chance to wear my velvet Christmas dress I made last year. I’ll have to make sure I do that. I’ve been very busy these days with a list of projects I’ve been working on for Christmas. This post and project …
