My first make of 2019! And it's on my #makenine2019 list! . It's the @sewoveritlondon #heatherdress in a ponte from @girlcharlee I've had in my stash for almost three years (!). I cut a straight size 18 with no modifications. . Overall, I like it a bunch.

She's baaaaack! With a new needle plate, lower blade and the loopers put back in sync. But, now I'm afraid to use it lest I break it again. 😥 #sewing #imakemyclothes #isewmyownclothes #ilovesewing #isew #sewist #handmadewardrobe #mem

Feeling cute (after a long time not) in my elastic-back, slash-pocket hacked @helens__closet #winslowculottes (in @blackbirdfabrics #tenceldenim) I dreamt about wearing last night. I haven't sewn anything in far too long (repairs, alterations and things f

Long cardigans are like office approved capes. And I feel like a freaking superhero in this one! I wish the insides were finished more neatly, but everything else about my #blackwoodcardigan is amazeballs. I cut a straight XL in view A and the only change

Helpful. I'm finally getting around to making a #blackwoodcardigan from @helens__closet! I'm really glad I did some test samples first because my serger was just NOT having a good time with this rib sweater knit from @blackbirdfabrics. This is just reinfo

This is the first thing to have come off my sewing machine in almost two months. I can't go that long without making something again. It was terrible. Luckily, this #yorkpinafore is not terrible at all! Made from some random piece of $3 fabric from Value

Fresh off the Singer: A very ladybug #yorkpinafore! In a knit (because I'm crazy like that)! This is made with a nylon spandex from my stash. When I received this fabric from @girlcharlee I was kinda mad because it was thick and felt plasticy and nothing

#MMMay18 item #18: My @wardrobebyme01 #astadress. I picked the wrong size and my fix for a too long bodice makes this dress feel really girlish to me and therefore I don't wear it nearly as often as I'd like to because I heart the fabric a lot. #sewing #i
