New Creation and Store

Recently a very wonderful and inspiring friend of mine gave me some beautiful evening gown fabrics - so a couple weeks ago I designed and made a dolly evening gown. It was only the fourth or fifth time I have ever needed to completely design something from scratch but I am pleased with the outcome!!! Here are some pictures!!


 
 


 

Soon, I also hope to rent out or barter for a sewing room hopefully close to our living space which would be absolutely fantastic!!

Also, I was recently given the opportunity to buy a space at a local store to display our matching girl and doll outfits!!

P. S. i quilt


Yes, there has been much irregularity to this blog..... But with the sun calling me outside and school planning inside besides all the other interruption we have around our house - I have let sewing take a break for a little while besides small projects here and there to keep me sane!!

Not long ago I was searching for a way to use up all of my scrap material that I have left over from making the dresses when I stumbled across this blog called P.S. i quilt . I have made the friendship bag many times and have enjoyed experimenting to use up many of my scrap fabrics!! Please take time to look over Rachel's blog!! She is an amazing seamstress!! I do not however believe that she is a Christian though I haven't spent an extensive amount of time on her blog besides admiring her sewing work.

Enjoy!!
