Day 10 transforming my summer wardrobe !

please make sure yall checking if your pattern pieces are right sides together (if doing regular seams)! I def sewed together my entire shorts before noticing one side was wrong side facing up 😂 lol mistakes is definitely part of the process, I just laughed about it because the end result is always worth the effort!

I didn’t record This part but I also took in the sides to make it fit better on me!

I think ima go back and make the top shorter but that’ll be for another day 🤣

I need more transitional sets that can take me from tracking a class to attending an event, and other things my day consists of. This set is definitely one!

Day 5 transforming my summer wardrobe … sometimes you just gotta bring out your hand, needle and thread and get to creating. You don’t need all the fancy things to sew your own clothes!

This project took me less than an hour to do and I already know I’m gonna wear it many times !

I need more dresses in my closet for sure!! This was so fun to make and I really like how it turned out because it’s so comfy and cute.

At this point I’m just experimenting with my clothes and it’s truly the only way you learn!

If you’re wanting to create your own clothes this summer, I’m hosting an up cycle workshop next Saturday! Come create and learn with us!

Day 3 transforming my sunmer wardrobe! Two piece sets always look better in my opinion 😭

I totally forgot to record myself making the straps for the top, but I just cut off some excess fabric and just sewed it to the ends to tie around my neck…super simple!
