New Hair-Do and New #appletondress ! is it blue; is it green - who knows! I'm hoping the shimmer velvet masks the fact this year's Party Dress is basically Secret PJs! 😂 • If you love this stretch velvet fabric as much as I do (it comes in classic Navy, Black and Red too!!) then I'm happy to report there's a whopping 20% discount code, together with more pics of said Dress (and Hair-Do 🤣) on the Blog ((link in my Profile)) together with some tips on sewing / hemming stretch velvet • the discount code can be used on any item / your entire order from the @patternsandplains store! • or, haha, forget the blog post and just use code SEWSARAH at checkout!! 😁 =========================== Fabric and discount code : given in exchange for an honest review from @patternsandplains Pattern : by @cashmerette Hair : is not a wig 🤣 =========================== . . . #sewingclothes #sewyourown #sewingtips #sewfestive #imakemyownclothes #handmadewardrobe #instasewers #sewing #sewingcurves #curvysewing

Sneak peak at this years' party dress - long sleeves paired with long boots keeps it warm 'n' cosy; the fab shimmer stretch velvet powers up the glam and the stretch should allow for big Christmas dinners so...yey!!! . ************************************* Fabric : John Kaldor 'Carlotta' stretch velvet in 'Teal' given for review purposes by @patternsandplains Pattern : The Appleton wrap dress by @cashmerette Curves : my own 😁 ************************************* . #appletondress #curvysewing #sewingissexy #sewistsofig #sewingdress #handmadeclothing #isewmyownclothes #memade #christmasdress #christmassewing #sewingstretch

I have yet to test this theory but the nagging voice of the Fit Monster 😈 that resides in my head has finally been silenced 🤣 - the 'lightbulb moment may have taken several several weeks to arrive but I *think* I may have solved the fitting issue that leads to my jeans dropping down my hips as the denim relaxes throughout the day - I simply need to take a wedge out of the back of the waistband to make it more curved. (Swipe to see @closetcase.patterns diagram on how to do this). . Anybody else had success with this adjustment? And, err, anybody else got a resident Fit Monster?! 😂

My two pairs of 👖 Morgan Jeans 👖 (each with different mods). I loved sewing these - less enamoured with my 9.5 oz weight denim, it has to be said! It's been an interesting learning curve understanding how much raw denim relaxes and grows in wearing! I'll be sure to use a heavier weight next time (which 'gives' less apparently!) 🖱 These ponderings are up on the blog now together with a list of the tools I found invaluable in making them. 😁 As for me, I'm about to settle down with the first tub of Christmas Chocolate - 24 more to go!! 😂 . . ========================== Pattern : #morganjeans by @closetcase.patterns . . . #sewingsunday #sewingblogger #sewingblog #sewsewsew #sewingismysuperpower #makeitwearit #diyfashion #diystyle #isew #seamstresslife #sewersofinstagram #sewcialists #sewist #sewingjeans

And this is my second tester version of the #ponajacket made up in a velvety black heavy weight 8 wale corduroy - a completely different garment from my first one! This coat is warm and snuggly; I added a simple press stud to the top left so that I can choose to hold the coat closed with the collar up. Be gone, Winter Chills! 🌬 . Both versions are up on my blog now 😁 * A more detailed look at this fabric is also up on the @fabricguysonline blog . ============================== 🔸️Pattern by @helens__closet given free for participating in the Tester Group 🔸️*Fabric given to me free by the @fabricguysonline in exchange for a review =============================== . . #helensclosetpatterns #sewingaddict #ilovetosew #instasewing #memade #isewmyownclothes #sewingproject #makeitwearit #diyfashion #sewsewsew #sewjo #sewing #sewinglove #makingclothes

So this is the ❤first❤ of my tester makes of the new #ponajacket pattern by @helens__closet - such a quick 'n' easy way to elevate an outfit that is essentially slouchy jeans and sneakers to something that looks way more put together! This version and a second are up *on the blog* now but I warn you, my love for this pattern has given rise to some rather 'billowy' language!! 😁 ((usual link in my profile page)) . ============================= *I was given the tester and finalised version of the pattern in exchange for participating in the tester group with no obligation to review. *Red needlecord fabric purchased from @minervadotcom ============================= . #seweveryday #sewingforme #selfishsewing #coatsewingpattern #jacketsewingpattern #makingclothes #handmadecloset #memadewardrobe #isew #imakemyownclothes #sewersofinstagram #sewingpattern #sewcialists #makeitwearit #createmakeshare
