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 …
White lace and promises… a kiss for luck and we’re on our way… For years I’ve dreamed of our wedding day, and it finally came. It actually came on short notice, which we were expecting. After months of waiting, with nothing in the foreseeable future, my boyfriend and I decided that if the chance came, we had to take it. …
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 …
This blouse with buttons was a project I made back in 2019 as a birthday present for my older sister. I never posted the project on Lekala or wrote about it until now because I hadn’t been able to take pictures until a few days ago. Writing up the projects such a long time after the fact is not a …
So in my last post when I wrote a bit about my younger sister, I mentioned her creative talents and how she created many beautiful things. I also mentioned how I would share her many creations. This is the first one I’ve decided to share. I believe this was the first article of clothing that she ever made for me. …
In April of last year, I came across a testing call for this lovely tee by Susanna Biaye of Fosbas Designs. I was thrilled when I was accepted to test for her, and very excited since it also happened to be the first time I ever tested a crochet pattern for a designer. Since I’m posting all my projects on …
