Hello Friends! I've really been ENJOYING this summer and the cute things I've been able to make and wear to look my best while doing so! I've been wanting easy pieces that I can just throw on and that have the possibility for multiple options of styling.
Enter this True Bias Zoey Tank/Dress. I cut View C in size 12.
Hello Friends! I'm back with another cute summer make! I originally intended to make this dress for vacation but time got the best of me so I made it when I returned for brunch with the family...
This is the Staystitch Pattern Co Lola Racer Tank Top Pattern. I cut the dress View in a size 10.
Hello Friends! A couple of months ago, I attended DC Frocktails! The first one happened right on time in February 2020 and then of course there was a pause put on it. Enjoy my video and some of the FEW pics I was able to get below.
Hello, Friends! This may be a year of trying new things for me. I made my first coat earlier this year, and now I am back with my very first BAG!
Hello Friends! I'm back, and I have been SEWING; just haven't been sharing much...UNTIL NOW lol
I was invited to a friend's Traditional Nigerian wedding ceremony and in the invitation, they made the guests aware of the theme color of the wedding. The color was MAGENTA. So I went into my stash looking for dressy-ish fabrics that would fit into the theme.
Hello, Friends!
Back in March, I went to Atlanta for a friend's birthday trip and I was able to stop by Melanated Fabrics!
Melanated Fabrics is a fabric store created by Mimi G and Brittany J Jones as partners. I had hoped to see Brittany in the store when I went to visit, but she ended up having the flu. But I DID get to meet Norris, Mimi's husband, and he was super kind. It's a great creative space and I can see how they are filling a market in the Atlanta area!
I did, of course, buy some patterns and fabric to support and you can watch the video of my visit and my purchases here!
Hello Friends! Can you believe that it's almost JUNE and the weather still doesn't know what it wants to do?! Now that my sew-jo is back, I've been going back and forth about what to make but I have to keep pushing back summer dresses, and it's a little too warm for the camo jacket I want to make lol.
But I will never tire of making dresses, I just needed one that would work for this awkward weather transition, but ALSO be multi-functional. I wanted something that wasn't TOO fancy that I'd feel weird pulling it out to hang out with friends on the weekend, but fancy ENOUGH that it could be dressed up for a classy event.
That's how I've come to make this dress that is giving me such a cute vintage flair!
