Wedding Bells – Free Crochet Pattern

July 16, 2022November 29, 2022 / Kitty/ 1 Comment

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 …

Green Velvet Circle Skirt – Free Sewing Pattern

February 15, 2022February 15, 2022 / Kitty/ Leave a comment

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 …

Red Silk Bow Blouse

July 20, 2021August 10, 2022 / Kitty/ Leave a comment

This is a blouse I made back when I was trying to draft my own patterns. After finding a picture online, I knew I wanted to make it. Using yet another of my self-drafted bodice blocks as a base, I did my best to make something that looked like the picture. I tried to match the details as much as …

Princess Dress for Barbie – Part 2: Sewing the Bodice

May 20, 2021May 21, 2021 / Kitty/ 1 Comment

So after finishing the planning stage of this project, I was ready to start sewing. First, the bodice. This took a bit longer than I had planned, because I guess I should have done a bit more planning. First, I cut out the pieces for the bodice and sleeves from pink satin. Because this fabric frays practically just from touching …

So I was working on a different post that I’ve been meaning to finish and publish, but lately I’ve been absorbed in a totally different project. I’ve spent a lot of time on the preliminaries and it’s gone very slowly, but I’m finally to the point where I have everything I need to get started. This post is going to …

Perfect Christmas Tree Star Tutorial

December 13, 2020December 13, 2020 / Kitty/ Leave a comment

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 …

Red Silk Sleeveless Blouse – Lekala

October 25, 2020October 25, 2020 / Kitty/ Leave a comment

This is the first garment I made for my youngest sister using a Lekala sewing pattern. She needed something new and fancy to wear to Mass, and this blouse is the one she chose. She was a teen, but I just put her measurements into the women’s template and the fit was really good. I made this blouse two and …

Ruffle Collar Blouse – Lekala Sewing Pattern

October 15, 2020October 15, 2020 / Kitty/ Leave a comment

After finishing the pattern test for the gored skirt in January 2018, the next pattern I made was this ruffle-collar blouse. I started it in January and finished it in February. I wanted to get it finished so I could wear it on my birthday, and I did. While I was making this I made a couple changes, but since …

Blue Velvet and Satin Blouse – Lekala Pattern

August 10, 2020August 10, 2020 / Kitty/ Leave a comment

This is my third project using a Lekala sewing pattern. The first two were my maroon wrap top and my blue polar fleece top, both made with this free pattern. After the good results of the first two projects, I decided to go ahead and try a paid pattern, and this velvet blouse was the one I chose for my …
