craft challenge: day 4

re-sized two skirts for a customer today. also made a scrappy black n white skirt!





I really love how it turned out. i did inside out seams so they are visible. its so tempting to keep but I don't think i will.

craft challenge: day 3

I bought contact paper to put onto the baby room window because its so odd shaped and I plan on painting the wall stripes plus the fabric i bought for curtains is also striped... so instead its going to get the animal print, in a smaller ruffle instead.





here's the window BEFORE:


and AFTER:


I also did my dining room/sewing room windows, on the bottom half and added curtains finally in there. it had ugly blinds that were missing pieces.



plus heres the rest of my sewing area!! the blank wall where my mannequin is, is for photographs.



I did make a body pillow too, but I threw it in the washer so it'd smell good.

craft challenge: day 2

so i didn't make anything to exciting today. just filled two orders, which is also good!

craft challenge!

so lately I haven't been motivated to sew. its probably the pregnancy... I want to force myself back into it so I'm going to start a craft challenge until I give birth. I'll post all sorts of things, home, nursery, baby, clothing, maternity clothing, accessories, jewelry.. anything I craft. I'll try to post at least ONE project a day. but I'll shoot for more.

Today I turned some UGLY 80's pants into maternity things. Its hard to find any jeans that fit in my size, its like they don't exist.

I only took one before pic of the animal print pair, forgot the other... thanks to my boyfriend who can barely use my camera, haha.



Here's what i turned them into!




&&&& these awesome floral print pants:





and i think i should invest in a tripod sometime soon... leaning the camera against things just doesn't work well.

a little while after i made my brick gameboy dress, a friend had requested a gameboy color, of course her being one of my fave humans, i made her a blue one.






so i figured, why not make more? heres a pink one for sale: CLICK HERE
