This weeks project was actually a really fun one. So one of my goals is actually to only wear made-by-me clothing, so this week I decided to take it one step further. I first tried a bought pattern, but it was not my style at all. But I do have these hipsters from h&m that…
Sew 52 Week Challenge
Sew 12/52: Felt
So this is the first time I am actually sewing something with felt and I knew at once what I wanted to make. A felt needle case. Not the prettiest thing.. but at least I have a place to put all my needles. Cotton with interfacing and felt with bias tape for the outside. I…
Sewing Challenge 9/52: Buttons
Another week and another sewing challenge completed Sunday evening. This is getting into a habit and I do not approve! For this week I made something I originally wanted to make during week one. However, lacked the amount of fabric needed. I got the fabric and never did anything about it. I followed the super…
Sewing Challenge 8/52: Upcycle
Upcycling is not really my thing. I have a plastic bag ful of clothes that I want to refashion. However, I have no idea what to make of them. A few weeks ago I was lucky enough to try the More2Hug Lace Me Up top and I actually used a maxi skirt that already had…
Sewing Challenge 7/52: Something with Hearts
This was a heard challenge for me. I am not a heart person. I really left it to the last minute. Looking through my fabric stash I actually found a woven fabric that had some hearts in it. It was left over from some pillows I made for my little sisters bedroom makeover back in…
Sewing Challenge 6/52: Something Pink or Red
I had the perfect idea for this challenge, but like all perfect ideas, it did not pan out. I had this gorgeous coral lace that I was going to make the new Made For Mermaids Bridgette Bralette pattern. It was the same week as the sew-a-long so I made a muslin version first (I recommend…
Sewing Challenge 5/52: From a Newly Purchased Pattern
Finally I get to post about last weeks challenge. This was a super fun challenge and definitely something I needed. After my KonMari Challenge, specifically going through my closet I noticed that I was really lacking in the t-shirt department. So I looked through my fabric stash and found four fabrics I knew would work…
Sewing Challenge 4/52: For A Boy
We are back with another late sewing project reveal, because again this is a present. So, I did not want to post to ruin the surprise. This time, it was not a present for my boyfriend, but for my cousins baby boy. It is a bit funny, because the reason I made it for him…
Sewing Challenge 3/52: Make Sewing Easier
This is by far my favourite week, even if I was sewing 24/7 I do not think I would be able to finish everything in this category. From the start I knew I wanted to make multiple items, and the more that was posted in the Facebook group the more I wanted to make. *This…
Sewing Challenge 2/52: Last fabric purchased
As you may notice I am super late with last weeks sewing challenge. There is a really good reason, and I will tell you all about that in a bit. So the theme for the week was to sew something from the fabric you purchased last. The last fabric I bought was a couple of…
