Once in a lifetime!

I am doing my back-to-school cleaning, plus we were having some friends over for dinner, sooo....the sewing, ahem dining room table, is clean! I was forced to move my hoarder-like piles and piles of sewing stuff.

This made me feel better today. lol. This is my nearly finished lined black pencil skirt. I hope to finish it today!

Plus I organized my tiny tiny closet. I had to buy a stacky thing for my sweaters and pants, I guess because I have sewn so many dresses!
Hopefully I will do some more sewing before NYC on Thursday! Yay!

Mending and Organizing

Yay! I finally got my sewing stuff organized after moving!


My pile of unfinished projects is enormous, so today I only worked on quick fixes.



I thought this was cute- he snuggled his blanket into a big starburst.
This was just stitching the bodice back onto the skirt- it came undone at the drycleaners, since it is forever 21 "quality"

I faked a loop where the plastic broke off.

This dress is really cute- I bought it at an estate sale and its old cotton, so when i was wearing it i tore one of the straps in the back, so i fixed that, too.

I also busted off a button, so I sewed on a new one. Granted, it doesn't match, and neither does the thread, but it's DONE!


Yay! Once I reduce the pile a little, I can move on to new and exciting projects- like dresses and my cape!
