After my sister made her first shirt, she wanted to do another one that was a little more special. Finding inspiration online, she decided on one with ruffles, so that’s what she did next. She picked a fabric similar to the poplin she used before, but it’s a tiny bit thicker and stiffer, and the shade of pink is darker. …
As I previously shared my sister’s first skirt project, now I’m sharing her first shirt. Our sewing teacher had me and my sisters do a button-down shirt as our next project. My older sister made hers in a cream color, and my younger sister and I actually made ours both pale pink; they’re nearly identical except for the buttons. I …
When my sisters and I first starting learning to sew, our teacher had us do a simple skirt as the first project. So we each did our own using the same basic pattern drafted from our own measurements. This project I’m sharing here was made by my younger sister. Now that I think about it, how long ago it was… …
When I was looking through my project photos, I found this and realized I hadn’t posted it yet. This is another project from probably 2019. My younger sister and I made this for my older sister. We were looking for a very simple and quick skirt for a last-minute Christmas present. We went with this design which is essentially a …

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 …
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 …
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 …
