I just finished another test pattern.

 And I cant wait until I am able to share it with you.. It looks like the designer is going to release them all together as a mix and match type thing.  But they are cute.  I just cant wait.  That is five pieces so far that I have tested and theres more that I didnt test. 

 I am enjoying sewing.  I cant wait to make myself some cute shirts.  My goal is to make myself a one of a kind hoodie to replace my old one that I keep wearing that is falling apart.  I just havent found "that" fabric that I am looking for yet.  When I see it I will know.  Plus Im getting experience sewing other items now.

Macrame Shelf Part1

 Well months ago my daughter sent me a picture of a macrame shelf.  So I finally decided to try a diy version.  I was gonna to try to copy it  but decided to figure out my own version copying a copy of different youtube videos.  

So far I have come up with this. I am not sure what I want to do with the bottom of the middle piece yet.  And there will be two side pieces on each side.

Some Really Cute Tester Patterns

 Since my last post I have made two  more test patterns for the same designer that I cannot wait to share.  That is when the pattern goes live.  I got to say the last one I made was absolutely my most favorite so far.  It has been a long month as I lost my mother a month ago today.  Sewing has helped me keep my mind occupied. 

As soon as I can I will post the cute clothes I made.

What a cute shirt! Sew Scrappy.

 

I made this cute shirt for my granddaughter.  She picked out the front pieces and cut the pattern out and sewed them together with my help.  As soon as the front got sewed together she didnt like it. I had to bribe her to put it on. It looks so cute on her.  This was an easy pattern to follow even for a beginner. 

This is the Sew Scrappy Kids pattern from Ellie N Mac

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.
