These cute Fraser shorts are part of a new Spring / Summer release on May 12th from Cloth and Caboodle. My granddaughter loves how comfy they are.They were pretty easy to sew until I got to the binding. Not as easy for a new sewist but I got it done it may not be perfect but they are cute and comfy.

Today I got to make a Be Trendy Halter Top. I was surprised at how easy it was to make. I used a mystery bundle of fabric from Walmart as a muslin. (sample make to test the fit) My brother came over and he said that my top did not even look handmade. Thats an awesome compliment. It fits really good and is very comfortable.
The Be Trendy Halter Top is a free pattern offered by Ellie & Mac. Every week E&M have a Wacky Wednesday sale where a few patterns are marked at a sale price of $1. Each Monday the patterns change that are on sale.

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.
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.

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.
I cant wait to show them off. I will be letting my granddaughter and niece tye dye them so they will be matching but not matching. Again they are too cute and I cant wait to share.
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
