Bleu Sewing Room...Flashback Friday

I have pretty much sewed in every room of my house 

these past 5 years.....really 5 years of sewing & I

still have not made a pair of jeans?!

The fake neat photo for my blog.

Anyways, this is my  first sewing room.  A bedroom vacated

by my oldest daughter when she moved into our basement.

This is what it pretty much looked liked when

I was learning to sew....a disaster.

Mini-me back then was excited by my new hobby

& made me this for the wall of "our"

new sewing room.

A yet unblogged white ruffle camisole that I made 

back then.

My first drape dress that I made that my middle daughter

"The Model" wore.  Notice the fabric?

Many dresses were made by the 10 meters

I bought.....newbie fabric purchase.

Mini-me always there from the beginning,

just after we set up the Singer sewing machine

in the little blue sewing room.

Sew you later!

A Comfy day dress

After all the holiday celebrations & dinners it is nice to chill out

& wear something comfortable....aka fat day dress, that iMade!

This dress was made using my New Look 

pattern 6936.  Another easy dress & it was an

easy sew but it had been laying around since summer for

me to finish it up!

I did make a change by ommiting the elastic around

the bodice.....I did sew it in & then seam ripped it out.

as you can noticeably see.

It was way more comfortable this way &

I  serged the neckline & butterfly sleeves in hot pink.

I really like this fabric from 

Laura's Fashion Fabric in White Rock, B.C.

& I think I am out of fabric (lol) so I will be there shopping soon.

Oh & "mom" necklace, the green amethyst ring &

white bootie slippers are all gifts from 

my loving family.

Sew you later!

Powder Puff Skirt

A skirt my daughters made for me from 

silk curtains (extra panel & a little help from me with the zipper) 

that still grace my bedroom!

The hem is done in my fave hot pink & the pin

tucks had to be removed before sewing.

Sew you later!
