Sewing Preview
I've been sewing. I promise. Unfortunately, what I've been cooking up isn't something I can show you - at least not just yet. Over the weekend, I developed a pattern for the 'project ideas' section of The Sewing Republic. And while I can't show you exactly what I've been working on, here's a sneak peak:
I know the photo doesn't tell you much, but I have to say I really enjoyed creating this project. Plus, I made my own bias binding and I think I did my best job ever applying it - now I'm thinking I need to make more projects like this just so I can practice my new skill! Now that one pattern is complete (at least completely sewn), I've got 2 more to sew up. I guess it's back to work this afternoon.

You have definitely peaked my curiousity with the 'sneak peak photo'. It looks like some great colors. Soon, I'll be getting into the world of making clothes for myself (after the baby and some weight loss) so I'll definitely have you on my speed emailing list for questions!!! I figure I'd start out with some easy dresses and work my way up to more tailored outfits. I typically read up on the internet and seach google, but I was wondering is there a particular book you would recommend for sewing clothes for oneself, creating a good fit, etc.... I'm already really picky with anything I make whether it's a purse or an outfit for my daughter so I know I will be super picky about making something for myself and making sure that it's perfect. I don't want to end up making lots of stuff and not wearing it!!! Thanks for any advice you may have.
