Mom sent me a very cute birthday card. I have very similar pieces in my closet. I just need the necklace :)
My blouse is done. It doesn’t look very good on the dress form because the dress form’s boobs are too high up and shaped funny (pointy). I’m pleased with how it turned out. I’ll be giving a good press with starch. #sewinginseattle #sewing #imakemyownclothes #isewmyownclothes #memade
Tip for sewing on buttons to lightweight fabrics: hold the button at an angle rather than flush with the fabric. This will create some wiggle room similar to a shank on a button attached to thicker fabrics. If this feels awkward, you can also wedge a toothpick or t-pin under the button while sewing it on. #seattlesews #sewing #imakemyownclothes #isewmyownclothes #memade
Using a snow day to sew the buttons on my blouse. I like the contrast thread. #seattlesews #sewing #isewmyownclothes #imakemyownclothes #memade
For some people, taking a risk might mean making a latex tuxedo. For me, at least tonight, contrast buttonholes felt daring. #sewing #memadeeveryday #imakemyownclothes #isewmyownclothes
Two new books from the library to delve into! I really enjoy fussy projects with lots of detail and handwork. #sewing #makersgonnamake #millinery
