I am entering to be a contestant on the
Super Online Sewing Bee and this post is a round up of some of my work. Not all of it and not necessarily the best but what I could find photos of.
 |
| My most recent Dress, " Apple Pie" |
 |
| A true collaboration my friend suggested the rick-rack placement, another the pleats and my daughter the belt. I made this up on a whim over the weekend for Independence Day. My own design. |
 |
| This was a sheet I found at a garage sale for 50 cents. The moment I saw it I KNEW that it was really a shirtwaist dress with coral trim that no one had made up yet. This is one of my favorite dresses! Comfy, casual cool yet elegant. I made this design up as a went along which is a shame because I may never be able to replicate it. |
 |
| "Matching" Mother-Daughter Easter Dresses |
 |
| Made out of the same fabrics, vintage pattern and reproduction pattern |

| Loving this fun day dress with pockets. A girl needs a place to keep her things | . | |
|
 |
| Did I make a dress out of fabric with little men in sombreros and donkeys? Yes, yes I did. |
 |
| We call this one the "Potato Salad Dress" because it is the same color as potato salad. |
 |

 |
| Details! |
 |
| I CAN sew bags too. |
 |
| I love hand work, especially embroidery, this was my first attempt at smocking. I loved the dress but wish that I would have fitted the shoulder better. |
