  • New Sewing Project! Sewing Vogue Pattern V2004

    May 16, 2024 /

    Hi everyone! It’s been a few years since I wrote a series of posts about sewing clothing. I used to do this a lot for the costumes I made. Today, I prefer to make my own clothes instead of costumes! Since I shifted my attention to sewing clothing for myself, I decided to document my process of making clothing in blog posts. The piece of clothing I decided to make is a summer dress using Vogue Pattern’s V2004. I planned on making this pattern for an Easter dress, but the physical pattern didn’t arrive until after Easter. I decided to use cotton sateen fabric to make view A (AKA the…

  • Simplicity S8926 Sewing Pattern: Plans and Ideas

    March 2, 2023 /

    Hi everyone! Last year, I purchased a copy of Simplicity pattern S8926. At that time, I wanted to buy a pattern to make a sort-of almost look a like pajama set I saw on YouTube. The person I saw wearing the pajamas is from Japan and, knowing Japanese sizing, I will most defiantly not fit them. (Even though the pajamas are oversized and will probably fit me that way, I am still too tall to wear them!) Despite the size difference, I couldn’t stop thinking about the pajamas. They were so cute and practical! They would also be fun to wear during the Christmas season. Unfortunately, I couldn’t find a…

  • My Hilary Duff x McCall’s Sewing Pattern Collection- 2021

    May 4, 2021 /

    Recently, I’ve been struggling to come up with blog post ideas for this blog. Since this is my sewing, art, and photography blog, I don’t like to write a post unless I have something creative to share. Unfortunately, I haven’t been able to be very creative lately. Due to this, all I have to talk about are my plans for sewing and craft projects. Since I’m struggling to come up with ideas on what to write about, I decided to write a post about something I’m passionate, and proud, of that involves sewing, art, photography, and crafts. Last year, I decided to start purchasing vintage and out of print sewing…

    Hi everyone! Due to circumstances beyond my control, I’m having problems working on my sewing projects. I had plans to work on and finish at least three sewing projects this month, but I still have yet to work on them. None the less, I decided to switch my attention to other sewing projects that create things I know I will like to make in the coming months. One of the things I will need are coats. I already own coats, but after years of making due with the ill fitting coats I purchased, I decided to make my own. I already have plans to make two coats, but they are…
