Sewing and Such
I totally missed sharing this the other day! I put together a fun and very simple tutorial turning the Daydreamer Dress into a ruffle neck top for Tie Dye Diva. It takes seriously less than an hour to make one of these, and they're great for refashioning men's button down shirts (my girl insisted on …
Here's a fun weekend sewing project for you if you're looking for one. Warm weather pjs! I've been wanting to make myself some cute summer pajamas for years. I always wear worn-out and stained "can't be worn in public anymore" t-shirts and old maternity shorts to bed (yup, lookin' my best), and I must've been …
I am so thrilled with this new swimsuit pattern, and if you've never sewn swimsuits but thought about it, then this is the swimsuit pattern for you. Designs by Call Ajaire just released her new Sash Swimsuit pattern, and I just can't say enough good things about it! The Sash Swimsuit's main design is a …
It's been a fun week helping host the Lemon Drop sew-along for Tie Dye Diva Patterns! If you weren't able to participate in the sew-along, the blog posts will still remain up after the sew-along is over. Each day is below: Selecting Your Fabric Day 1 - Fitting and Pattern "hacks" Day 2 - Add …
I can finally share what I've been working on these past few weeks! I've been putting together some pattern hacks for the Lemon Drop Tunic and Dress pattern for Tie Dye Diva's Lemon Drop sew-along, so go ahead and hop on over there to take a look at more pictures, and maybe even participate 😉
I'm so excited about this girls top! It's got that adorable and sweet vintage thing going on, and it's comfy like a t-shirt. It's Thread Faction's recently released #117 Bow Blouse, and it's just right up my alley! Oh how I wish this top was in my size... When I first saw it I immediately …
I totally dropped off at the end there you guys. I ended up painting the house like a mad fiend and didn't even think about taking selfies! I wore me-made of course, but no pics. I'm so glad the painting is done though because my house has been half gray, half off-whitish/yellow (which you can …
I just had to share this post I wrote with Tie Dye Diva Patterns for Cali Fabrics. I love this dress, and it just might be the first dress I don't let her wear unless it's a special occasion! I don't want this one getting stained immediately 😉
I almost forgot to share my Me Made May week 3 round-up! Since school is wrapping up for my little one, time seems to be going at warp speed. I can't believe she's finishing kindergarten already. Each day seems to get busier and busier, but I'm really looking forward to summer break. Alright, on with …
Refashioning clothing is seriously lots of fun, and what's easier than refashioning a men's button down shirt? I have amassed a sizable collection of men's shirts, and they're taking up lots of space in my fabric closet. Aside from having a fabric closet which is AWESOME, I have fabric spilling out of it because it's …
