Sewing

In 2013 I joined a sewing challenge in the hopes that I would finally sew up the tubs of fabric that I have purchased over the years for clothing.  

Unfortunately, when I learned to sew as a teen, I was skinny as a rail and I never had to learn how to make adjustments for curves. This page is to document my new learning curve.

The T-shirt Debacle

Simplicity Tank Pattern Fail  May 2012
Butterick 5215 Fail April 2013

Lace Re-do   May 2013

Outcome:  Still waiting to be hemmed

Zig Zag Dress  June 2013

Wear it all the time.

Floral Skirt  June 2013

I only have 1 shirt that matches so don't wear it as often as I might.
