Sewing, dresses and D.I.Y. September 7, 2014. 8216;School days’ pinafore shift dress. I finally made something cold weather-friendly! I started a new job recently (. So I really wanted something handmade to wear that is for winter (because winter never seems to end) and works well with layers. I was really excited about the idea of this dress but I’m not sure I have really pulled it off. I wanted the shift dress to be super simple so that I could wear turtle necks and long sleeve tops under it. I remembe...

DIY Lingerie Watson & Co. I made a bra, I made a bra, I made a bra today hey HEY! I’m also looking at. My biggest fear about sewing a bra was running into fit issues. What if I just kept trying endless combinations of bra-band and cup sizes, never quite getting a good fit? And then not knowing how to tweak it or make the necessary adjustments (because bra construction is a. But it didn’t go down like that at all…. I LOVE the style of the Watson.

https://obsidianhandmade.wordpress.com/2015/07/08/a-floral-fancy-sewaholic-granville-shirt
A Floral Fancy – Sewaholic Granville Shirt. I’m really living on the edge these days! Gone are my nicely organised sewing sessions, replaced with late nights and hours spent frantically finishing off and photographing my makes. I have Indie Sewing Month to thank for that! There were so many great challenges and inspiring posts from the Monthly Stitch sewing community over the last month I’m just disappointed I only managed to finish off two entries. I did, however, win both Katy and Laney. This is the fl...

Clay - Stitch ParadeStitch Parade
http://stitchparade.com/yarnbowl
A sewing and knitting blog. Skip to primary content. January 13, 2015. Playing with clay, before glazing and fire. The class was taught by Andrea Piller. Even tough I tend to like order and symmetry, I also like things wonky shapes so I decided not to smooth out the edges on my bowl. The result is a wavy edge that I quite enjoy as I feel it highlights the handmade, one of a kind quality of it. AB – 2014. This entry was posted in General DIY. And tagged finished object. 24 thoughts on “ Clay. I’m so...

Tricks of the Trade. Industry Insights – Creating a Collection. This month my work has kind of overtaken my life, leaving no time for much else! Dinners have been rushed heat-and-eat affairs, marathon training has fizzled out, and as for reading sewing blogs – well, forget it! Now the big deadline has been and gone I have finally found time to blog – that’s far more important to catch up on than the housework, don’t you think? At the start of each season I sort the ideas I have gathered into logistical t...

Orange Sunset Top – pattern scissors cloth
https://patternscissorscloth.com/2016/03/03/orange-sunset-top
Tricks of the Trade. Guess where we headed last night to photograph my new top:. It was such a lovely evening and I thought Point Chevalier beach would be perfect in the setting sun to show off a summery orange number. Why not start with a back view? Sometimes the tide comes right up and you have to run in the water and up along this footpath. When the tide is out you can run right along the coast, although you might need your trail shoes! And c) vertical front darts extending to the hem instead of my fa...

Is the new skirt pattern of Colette patterns, and has 3 variations. I made Version 2. I used to own a black H&M skirt that is similar to it and I wore it to pieces. Or until pleated skirts were outfashioned and I had a closet clearing frenzy (I hate it when I throw out things and regret it later! Does this happen to others? Don't look at the creases please, I even ironed it before we stepped in the car. Type of green (my hubbie called it forest green). This cute Esprit blouse, for example, but also p...

5 Sewing Tips for December – pattern scissors cloth
https://patternscissorscloth.com/2016/12/21/5-sewing-tips-for-december
Tricks of the Trade. 5 Sewing Tips for December. Last month I mentioned how handy it was to chalk the wrong side of your fabric when cutting, to easily identify the right and wrong sides. Well this month I rediscovered this photo, where I have gone a step further and nicked the corners to help identify the ‘top’ of a pile fabric:. In this case it was for the bound buttonholes of my teal mohair jacket. So you have set in a sleeve and it looks amazing so far – but how do you actually. When sewing an invisi...

Tricks of the Trade. Viscose helps too – being cool to the touch I find it one of the most comfortable fibres to wear in our humid summers. This was a viscose challis that I scored for $12 at the Moa fabric clearance. Last year. The print reminds me of helter skelters. 8211; do you remember them? What collar you say? Hidden by my hair in almost every photo except this windblown one is a stand collar, which is cut on the bias so it rolls nicely around the neckline. I will try and remember to put a hook an...
