This was my week 48 challenge. Make something new. I actually made 2 of these and 2 skirts to go with them. I’ll have to take pics when we wear them again. I had this fabric and decided to make a batwing style shirt with them. I actually ended up buying 2 new patterns. I used the one by Sinclair. It needed some modification to not be so low in the back and I should have used a different fabric for the binding at the neck to be sturdier, but it is wearable, and lily and have matching shirts and green maxi skirts that aren’t identical just both green to go with them.
An extra project. Sewing fabric from my stash. Brandon has been getting cold lately and this is a nice fuzzy fabric on the wrong side that I thought would make a nice cozy oversized sweatshirt
Week 50 challenge. Something for your head/ears. This is a pattern I’ve wanted to try for quite some time but haven’t.
Bought a scrap pack of bamboo French terry from the styled magnolia. I had to play with how to use it but it was nicely themed fabric. I made this and a shirt for me and still have some plaid left over.
Made another pair of sweats for Ben after he bought another pair or two that are entirely too short.
Another styled magnolia fabric I picked up on retail this month.
I used this shirt as week 50. Sew something for yourself.
Elf day for lily. I made a quick had and collar. It was too warm to wear the Gnome shirt above. Wondered if we’d get to wear them this season but it got down to 15 a couple of nights ago so the shirts got worn.
Week 49 sew a holiday gift. Made slippers for lily and Duncan. Then Aaron saw that they were camo and wanted a pair. He ended up really liking them. They are reversible but I don’t foresee either boy wearing them on the brown side. Lily may wear hers on the purple side if she keeps track of them.
Here’s my gnome shirt. Slightly different.
Yet another shirt I made this month from the styled magnolia retail another bamboo French terry. That fabric is so comfy.
