I made shorts ! I never thought I’d have the patience to try to fit anything on my bottom half because I always assumed I was shaped funny. I guess I was being too hard on myself because aside from grading between sizes (Which is a fairly common adjustment), I didn’t need any other adjustments. They are more snug than I’d like, but c’est la vie. They still look pretty okay I think. Maybe hopefully I’ll lose a few lbs, and they’ll be perfect! .

Made on stream earlier, my 2nd @madeformermaids Women's Jordan! I still need to add the arm bands and hem but I am kind of obsessed with this pattern The short sleeve hooded version is going to be my go-to casual summer dress for sure. Can we look at that perfect hood overlap? Please ignore the messy cutting table and cat things on the floor. Yes, the box is a "cat thing". I squeezed this out of 1 yard! #womensjordan #madeformermaids #sosewenglish #ssefabrics #sse #frenchterry #twitchgirls #m4m #twitch #twitchaffiliate #twitchtv #twitchcreative #twitchstreamer #floral #indiepatterns #indiedesigners #sewingismyhappyplace #sewing #sewingwithknits #womeninheadsets
Isn’t @anitabydesign looking amazing in this plaid #repost
・・・
Whether you’re sewing with plaids and stripes in advance or at the last minute, don’t get caught with your lines not matching up, because...sew sisters (and brothers) have eyes!!! And we ARE looking!
I decided to use this plaid print at the last minute and thought to myself, GAME ON!
When you sew your own clothes, the smallest fraction of mismatch will have you trippin’. There are times when I just leave well enough alone. Then there are times when my seam ripper and I party for hours, until it’s right.
Sharing on the blog today about this look, where you can see more photos and how I actually achieved a great pattern match all around. Whew!!!
Never before did I make four tops within a very short time. That was insane and somewhat stressful. I was ready to throw in the towel after 3rd top (from sheer exhaustion).....but because we agreed on family photo and I didn’t want to disappoint anyone so...I pushed myself. I did it in the wee hours before we left for the airport. Crazy!!! Would I do it again? N O!! I am that kind of person to enjoy sewing and not rush through it all.
Originally, I was planning to use different blue fabrics for my mom, but I wasn’t feeling it. Meaning they didn’t feel right for my mom. I looked at my stash to see what would work and hoping something would pop up and say “choose me”. Well, this floral fabric did. I wondered how I missed it the first time. Boy! Am I glad! My mom loves the top. Because I changed the fabric for my mom, that meant I had to frantically look and see what I can find for my sisters and myself. Got plenty of purple!! They sure complemented my mom’s top nicely in our family photo (see previous post). .
Pic 1-2) My mom wearing classic top in Spun Poly. Super easy to sew. Loved it. Made my skills look better, thanks to this fabric.
.
Pic 3-4) Linda wearing the classic v-neck top in Double Brushed Poly. Super soft and stretchy (like leggings). .
Pic 5-6) Janice wearing basic low crew neck top in Rayon Spandex. Soft and thin. It’s ideal for warmer weather. Sorry, @jgfab07, you had to wear it in the unexpectedly cold weather.

Pic 7) Couldn’t not share this with her fur baby, Roxie.
.
Pic 8) Yours truly (me ) in basic low crew neck in some jersey knit I got from Joann’s two years ago. Turned out to something I really love. .

Day 14: #memademay2019 I didn’t think I would be making a jumpsuit for myself. #sewbravesewcialists #sewingchallenge I was hesitating to cut into this beautiful fabric from #sosewenglishfabrics. #ssememademay19 #ssefabrics . These are now my secret pj’s. Thanks to the #sewtogetherforsummer challenge sponsored by @rocco.sienna @sewsarahsmith @sewing_in_spain. I decided to give it a try. There will definitely be more in the near future. This was a trial run. I am already working on the next one.#ddsirocco
