Latest Creation 1 Attachment(s) Hey guys! Sorry to be so quiet the past few days. We have had to babysit my nephews a good bit and things have just been crazy hectic. But between all the crazyness, I worked on my next project for my Mom. It's not dog clothing, but I thought I would share. Mom picked out this fabric and the pattern at Joann. This dress was made using Simplicity pattern 2766. This one was a bit tricky, I won't lie. LOL. The pattern itself was easy, but working with this stretchy knit fabric was a new learning experience. We altered the pattern up a bit by leaving the sleeves flaired instead of having cuffs on them. We also added a bit of trim to the sleeves. Mom bought the scarf she is wearing with it to add a pop of color. I am going to try this pattern again this week with a different fabric. I read up all I could on working with knits and I think for a first try, it was ok. But I definitely need lots more practice!!!! But I just thought I would share a pic of Mom as she went off to school to teach this morning. She looked so cute!:) |
Aymee, that is just too darling! Your mom is a great model for your beautiful work, too!! Lovely! |
you have one cute momma!!:D so... I have a lot of animal print, you think it is tacky:rolleyes: lol...just look at chico's new spring line :) I guess that is what living in miami has done to me lol:eek: I also found that working with knit is easier with a serger. And breaking up the print with aqua is excellent. :thumbup: I think it is very nice:D |
I agree. Serger is the way to go. And pinning so you don't pull and stretch the fabric. Great job! |
Oh wow, great job that looks awesome and your mom is a great model :) |
Wow! I think it's really great! You have a beautiful mother and I bet she's proud that you do this for her!! You are very talented. I am afraid to work with knits, especially on my serger. Seems like no matter what I do, I stretch the fabric and end up with rumpley edges. LOL You did a great job!!:) |
Omg that is adorable! |
Very cute...looks like you did a great job! Your mom is so cool!:D |
I think its great, really impressed. Your mom looks great...I don't know why I thought you were my ageish....lol...probably cuz you are so sophisticated!!! Great job and I love your pics! I dragged up your seamstress down thread the other day...!;) |
Gorgeous mom gorgeous outfit!! :) |
Amyee beautiful dress you made your mom. She looks absolutely beautiful. The aqua scarf was a great touch. Anne/Luci:p:p |
Love the dress! Your mom is way too cute! I believe I have the same kind of boots she is wearing... oh so comfortable! The scarf is perfect for the dress! |
