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 houndstooth dress

My Fashion Star McCalls' 6553 pattern is finally done!

This pattern called for interfacing, I only had the fusible

facing left so I made it with that.

The pattern pocket instruction I still do not understand but used my own

way which is how I learned to make pockets.....from a book.

I love a dress with pockets!

I used a linen blend fabric.

Even I could understand the loop tie but I made it with a little ruffle.  I chose a 

fun pink button.

I serged the hem with tangerine thread & still might do a proper hem but I

wore it like this today.

The back interfacing gives the dress a crisp look that I am liking.

So this "easy" dress made me revisit interfacing as I had not sewn with that

in a couple of years & made me remember how to insert seam pockets!
