Me and my sewing

My pattern and fabric stash! There's more behind that!LOL


Like most sewers I have a fabric stash and a pattern stash.After reading Ms.Adrienne blog asking questions about sewing. I started to think maybe my fabric stash is not to much or my pattern stash.Last summer I put myself on a pattern diet and this summer I am going to do it again.But I don't think I will ever ever ever go on a fabric diet that would be too much for me!LOL! When I buy fabric or patterns I always get it when it is on sale, because I am very cheap person!LOL!A lot of people say you could never have too much when it comes to your craft!LOL!


Walmart fabric finds!!All of it was a 1.50$ a yard!The fabric to the left is all knits isn't just beautiful!LOL!The fabric to the right it mystery fabric.All that from Walmart! I did tell you I was cheap!!LOL!





My dd in a dress from one of the knits I bought from Walmart.
Pattern: McCall's 5615



Pattern: Simplicity 3536I had enough fabric to squeeze out a top for me.This was a easy sew.It has elastic in the should of the top.I liked that about this top.

Well that's it for me! Happy crafting!

Great weekend and some sewing!

What a weekend! Took the kids to a indoors water park. They were off for a week for spring break.

My two boys and my niece! It was hard getting them stop to take pictures because they were having so much fun!

I haven't blog in a month and I was award a sisterhood award!Yeah I am suppose to give it to 10 other people and everyone I know already have one.So I will not be giving any away. I would like to thank Ms. Jackie for the award!!



Now to sewing!



Patterns: Jacket and top Butterick 5941 Misses Jacket,top,skirt and pants.

Fabric: mystery fabric for a 1$ a yard at Walmart for the skirt and jacket.

Size:8

Conclusion: Very easy pattern no trouble at all.This pattern is out of print.I didn't add any button to the jacket just left it without. The top was fast and easy. I bought that fabric for the top from Jo-Ann's clearance rack a 1$ a yard.

Skirt
Pattern: out of print also.Misses skirt with variations.

Simplicity 4787
I love this skirt because of the pleats on the back.This was also an easy sew.It didn't call for a lining, but I added one because the fabric is light weight and you can kind of see through it.

Well that's it for me! Happy crafting!
