well, i stopped for a little while to make a wedding gift but thats in a second....
i made a shirt, shorts, sewed button holes and buttons on a skirt that i made in november, and then i made a bad ass dress! WTF???
the shirt i made for my sister kathy. she bought this fabric ages ago and picked out a pattern and i kept putting it off and putting it off... and then one day we saw the *exact* same shirt on modcloth for $107! WTF???
theirs vs. mine:
mine is from simplicity 7896, suckas
and i made these cute little 'tap-shorts':
and this friggin' awesome dress:
and, AND i did a glass etching on a champagne bottle and glasses for a wedding we went to the next day!
Did you crash and burn after all of this? WOW!!! that is PRODUCTIVE. They all look smashing...but I have to say 'that dress' ohhhh 'that dress' to die for!!!
ReplyDeleteGreat job! I have to tell you that I love the tap shorts and the pattern you used is a pattern I used back in the late 70's when it was new! I loved that skirt, blouse & jacket combo! Thanks for the memories :)!
ReplyDeleteWow! You were very productive! Love everything. The Anne Adams dress is my fav.
