Distressed Liberty Jane Jeans



I was drained from studying and needed a sewing project to relax this afternoon. I settled on making a pair of distressed jeans using Liberty Jane's pattern. This pattern is the best jean pattern on the market. No kidding. I had a blast sewing them up and tearing into them with my seam ripper. I am so pleased with my first pair of distressed jeans!

Bridesmaid Dress

My most recent custom order involved creating a bridesmaid dress for a girl's doll. These kinds of dresses are not my forte, but I was excited to see if I could do it.
-
I decided to make the dress out of satin, with an organza layer that went over the skirt. I have to say that working with all of that slippery fabric was very difficult.
-
I am very happy with the way it turned out though!

New Design!

I am playing around with a new layout for my blog. It has always bothered me that I am not able to get horizontal photos as big as I wanted them to be. The hope with the new layout is that the photos will be BIGGER!
