This Fabric Had Grandma's Name All Over It

 I found this cute Walmart mystery fabric bundle and it was screaming grandma would love this at me.  I have to get it.  3 yards for $8.  I could not pass it up.  I used a pattern from Ellie n Mac called Breezy with 3/4 sleeves and a peplum bottom.  My first one was a large, because the pattern had called for a 4 way stretch and this fabric was only a 2 way I was not aware I needed to size up.  At least there is enough fabric to make another one.  But i love how it came out. I do need to finish the hem on the bottom.  But I will be making another one real soon to surprise my grandma with.

Hypnos Sleep Set

 

Those doll outfits taught me a lot about sewing.   
My first sewing project for an actual human. Lol I made this cute Night Shirt using the Hypnos Sleep Set from A Jennuine Life. . 
  I got the opportunity to be a tester for this wonderful pattern.  It is a sleep set that includes top and bottoms and a night shirt.  It was easy to sew up especially for a beginner sewist.  Is sewist a word?  This turned out sooo cute.  My granddaughter was my model and she loves it.  While I am posting this she walked past and stopped to look and says "Oh I look so Cute". 
 
If you are interested in the pattern it is on sale right now for $5.  Link below.

So Excited!

I am so excited to say I applied to be a tester for a new pattern and I am one of the chosen testers. This is exciting for me. I got my pattern printed and put together, some measurements taken. And after a few questions with the designer I am ready to trace my pattern out and get to cutting.  Updates later.........
