#2018makenine + #2018usenine Review

11 August 2019


Hey peeps,

I'm soooooo sorry that i'm posting this so late, it's actually an oversight cos i thought i;d done it already, never mind, better late than never right?

This is a review of my #2018makenine but since i used some of the fabrics from my #2018usenine, i decided to combine the videos.

If you're new here or new to the sewing world and don't have a clue of what i'm talking about then watch my #2018makenine video where i fully explain the concept.

As always, see you on the next one.





     

#MEMADEMAY2019: DAY 17/31

6 July 2019



Oh my oh my, the story of this top is another one where a mistake turns into something good.

This top was part of my #2018makenine items, it's actually a famous MaCalls pattern m7542 which I saw on MiMi G and I decided I'd take a stab at drafting it.



And my woes with sleeves were very evident in my cutting of this pattern, I think I cut the armholes out twice and the sleeves maybe like 3 times, it's still not a PERFECT fit but I can live with it and it's one of my fav tops now.

If you're interested in other things I choose for my make nine or just want to find out what the hell a #makenine challenge is, you can watch them here.



So far I've never repeated any of my makes, well except for me trying to perfect my pencil skirt technique.

But like you can tell from all the posing I'm doing here, LOL, I like this crop top length, so I do intend to make more of this top to go with the high waist pants/trousers I keep dreaming I make.



Hopefully, before the end of this year, the dream turns into reality.

See you guys in the next post.




 
 

Sew and Tell: An honest review of my first high waist culottes

27 May 2018

I remember when I started hearing the word culottes thrown around in the fashion sphere, I kept going "what the heck are those?" till someone pointed them out to me and I said...........but those are palazzo pants, and, they are, but every recycle has to come with a new name to be bonafide recycle, but you'll forgive me if I use the names interchangeably

It's another sewing challenge video HURAYYYYYYYYYYY, I  think these challenges and tags that go along with them, bring the sewing community together, make us more visible to each other and makes our own corner of the big wide internet just that brighter.
