Current Projects

Here is a picture from the projects I am working on right now. The Favorite Things Prairie Girl Dress to the left. In the middle the Modkid Kyoko Dress. I already cut out the pattern and one part of the fabric arrived today in the mail. Above that is the Amy Butler Liverpool Tunic with the fabric I chose for it. I still have to prepare the pattern on freezer paper. To the right is the Lisette Continental Dress and parts of the already cut fabric.

And this is what I got so far of the Lisette Continental Dress. I hope to finish it today and maybe wear it tonight when we go out for dinner at the Bistro to listen to our farrier Doug and my piano teacher Mariam play there.

I am back!

I have abandoned this blog now for a very long time. Well, a lot happened since. One thing is I got a sewing machine and am now totally addicted. I am really into garment sewing and would like to replace almost all (I won't get into sewing my own pants) of my wardrobe with own creations. I also enjoy sewing home decor and bags. I just finished the top of my first quilt and I don't think I like it quite as much. I don't even want to get into trying to quilt this thing myself. I will give it away to be quilted.

Here are my projects so far in the order how I made them. Here are the projects from September 2011:
