Better Late Than Never
It's been way too long since I've posted anything. Life has just been a bit crazy, but I've managed to finish a few projects for my daughter.
I added a ruffle to the bottom edge of a top that I sewed a while ago. I thought that it looked a bit like a Walmart greeter vest or a flying monkey vest, so I listened to your suggestions. I think it's much cuter now.
This next tunic top was made using view B from McCall's 5458. I used a vintage pillow case and some stash fabric (lining).
Lastly, I finished a three piece fall outfit. The tank top and tunic top were made using McCall's 5794 and the pants were made using Burda 9708 (with a bit of tweaking). All of the fabric was stash. I only had to purchase thread and elastic. I used some vintage lace and fabric for the tank, vintage bias tape for the tunic, and twill leftovers from a sling for the pants.
My next projects are a pair of linen lounge pants for my mom and a baby quilt.
See you soon,

Very cute.
All very cute! I am impressed by your skill, especially since I cannot darn socks. I noticed on Etsy you had some jewelry. Perhaps we could get together and do some beading sometime. I used to make earrings a lot, then didn't, and now I'm on a kick again. I just do a ton of drop earrings on straight pins; I could use more designs in my repertoire, and perhaps a crafty lady like you will inspire me to be more creative.
ohhh I love the little fall outfit!
Thanks everyone.
@Maria, Stacy mentioned that she wanted to learn how to make jewelry. Maybe the three of us can work on it together.
Love them all!
