Spring is here....





I am so excited... Let all the minis out spring is here.... YAAY!!! My excitement has gotten the best of me this afternoon... I have been dying to wear this LITTLE DRESS I made... I can't wait to be done with the wedding so I can get back to real sewing...
Everything about this dress scream romance to me... so i decided he is taking me out on a date in 30 minutes he just doesn't know it yet and will go for a long walk holding hands swinging side to side... We might even steal a dance all because of this dress...
I love to wear it with different belts to cinch the waist... it brings out your shape better...

After a while.....

Ok... I haven't blogged in a very very long time... I am getting married in two months or other cases less... I am having two white weddings two weeks apart! Now that is heavy so I have been very busy planning instead of stitchin'... I can't wait to get back to but in the mean time I have this dress that I made from leftover fabric from an outfit I had made for a friend of mine... Perks of being a stitcher or seamstress or whatever...

Incurable stitcher...

I have been too busy working and stitching and not enough time blogging... for that I apologize... I wish I could do a better job... So I came up with at least four different dresses since the last time I blogged. few things to showcase...

A friend was getting married... So this was a fabric the bride has chosen for the wedding... It is so pretty I love the simplicity of the dress and how classy it appears...




I went into this little asian fabric store and came across some very beautiful fabrics.. I came across this particular I couldn't resist. I had to get this. I paid hardly $20 for 2 yards but it was worth and had some left over fabric from a dress I made for a freind of mine. I guess the perks of sewing for others... ha ha ha... love it....





Lastly.... while I was in Walmart the other day, I went to buy my fiance some toiletries. I was innocently walking around and I came to the home craft area where I found some wool... interestingly enough bought some wool for myself to create this infinity scarf i had been longing and lusting to own and also bought on impulse some flannel fabric to make "the boo" some lounging pants to wear around the house.... "aint I so domesticated?" lol but also found this denim material on clearance for $2:16, yellow cotton fabric half a yard $0.65....

This is what I came up with at the house.... some left over tulle at the house... imaginative mind in over time.... lol
