Sold a tutu

Read a quote that said I'd rather live a life oh wells than a life of what ifs. So I asked a photographer at work if he did baby photo shoots and then asked was he interested in baby props he said bring some in. I did and he bought one of my baby tutus. Oh yeah! I want to find a baby plaid button up add a onesie snap bottom and bam cute baby on trend.

Diy slouchy pants

I wore my muslin to the game last night. Yea I wore three inch heels to a football game. Those football games are a fashion show. I fit right in. My flat twist out came out great!

Take 2

This is my second time doing m6291. I did size small and view b ( Capri length). I am sticking with size m. Small I had to squeeze over my behind. The kids were laughing at me. But it was fine on my waist.i am still wearing them. I do not have stretch leather so I am terrified of popping a seam. I want to try one more time. Size m view b. One more thing sequin joggers.

iPhone wallet

I made the green one first too small for my phone in the otter box. I drafted a pattern for mine in its case. I like but it can't hold all of my cards I have in my wallet but it should be great for going out!

Right quick

I made a top out the skirt from a dress I got from the thrift store. The idea came from Shay She is my best friend in my head.I also made these shorts. Just cut a pair of Capri's into shorts. I did a double seam they look so store bought. LOL!

Score

Today is the last Wednesday of the month half off everything at value village the bolt of fabric $1.75. Sheet $1. Golf cart ( I think that is a golf cart) $6. The sheet will be a peplum and gathered skirt. Oh yeah. Not sure what I am going to do with the bolt of fabric other than give half to my mother in law. It is a heavy material but I think I can still make a something wearable.

Still trying

To fix my dress I took it in about an inch it is still not right it just screams homemade! It is not bad when you out a blazer on but what if I have to take off my blazer. I need some professional intervention. I think I am going to break down and go to Cheo.

Great combo

Saw this On Pinterest and I had to have it. Made mine out of an old t shirt of Leon's it has hip pockets but I kinda like them so they are going I stay. I love that I can make it today wear it tomorrow.

Teal dress

It was supposed to be a maxi like my inspiration. Lesson learned 3 yds not 2. I think it is too big and my seams are a bit bunched that may be fixed with ironing. All in all it is wearable. It kinda looks like pjs.
