Real Life: Live & Unscripted

A few questions for all of you who sew...

• Do you think clothes are made better if you don't take shortcuts??

• What kind of shortcuts do you take when sewing if any?

• Does making BWOF instead of something from the Big 4 make you a better sewer?

• Are your projects perfect? What will make you rip out and start again??

• What are you best at when it comes to sewing?

• what is your weak point?

• How many times will you make a TNT?

• What tips do you have for making jeans?! I'm about to make the Jalie pattern. SOON lol.

• Do you use the blind hem feature on your machine!? I can't get mine to work right. User error probably.

• Is there a such thing as too much stash!?!?

• What has been the worse thing you have done while sewing something? Could you save your project?

• When you mess up a project, do you feel bad or do you just move on?

• How many patterns do you have!?!?

• What is your sewing process!?

• Is there wrong with being inspired by celebs?? I am currently being inspired by Michelle Obama lol. I love everything about her.

• Do you offer advice on other peoples projects??

• Do you accept advice/ constructive critisim on your projects??

• Do you think it makes you a better sewer???

I figured I may as well answer them lol.

My Answers.....

I don't see anything wrong with shortcuts. I guess it just depends on what the shortcut is!?

I don't always cut out my notches when sewing. That is a shortcut to me lol.

I think making BWOF patterns make you think more. Their instructions or lack therof are awful lol.

My projects are NEVER perfect. I always see something (even if no one else can see it) that I could have done better. Anything that is NOT RIGHT , will make me rip out. I am SO TYPE A WHEN I AM SEWING LOL.

I think I am really good at sewing knits. I LOVE knits and I sew a LOT Of them.

I'm weak with buttonholes (strange right lol), welt pockets and HEMMING! I HATE TO HEM!!! I'm sure there are more things as I'm not perfect but I'm learning all the time.

I will make a TNT until I am just sick of it. It always looks different with different fabric.

Stash. I think everyone is different. What may be too much for me might not be too much for you. I've bought so much fabric in the last couple of weeks I don't have a DESIRE to buy anything else right now lol. That is SO subject to change lol.

I cut out a top and the fabric was folded under the pattern and i didn't know it lol. THAT was almost a disaster lol.

I don't dwell on my goof ups anymore lol. It's just fabric. I will toss it and move on lol.

I have a LOT of patterns and I'm always buying more. I want to catalog all the ones I have. I plan on doing that this summer.

My process....I pick my pattern first SOMETIMES I will pick my fabric first....cut out the pattern, cut out the fabric then sew lol. Simple.

I don't see ANYTHING wrong with being inspired by celebs or people in general. Inspiration is a great thing!

I LOVE honest feedback when it comes to my sewing. I'm trying to improve and I think that everyone knows and can see different things so I appreciate it. I'd rather someone be honest and tell me I look a hot mess than have me thinking I look superb in something that I've made that is jacked up lol.

Ok. I think that's it lol

Toodles!

Happy Tuesday!!!!!!!!!!!

TGIT lol. I know I'm trippen lol.

I'm just happy lol.

Ok anyway lol.

Remember when I got this fabric?

I need some suggestions. I have NO idea what to make with it. I THINK I have 2 yards....THINK lol.

While on the subject of fabric lol. Here are a couple pieces I picked up in Atlanta:

Jaelyn is trying to steal it lol. She picked out a pattern Sunday and this fabric was on the cover lol. She said it was a sign lol. We will see lol.

I LOVEEEEEEEEEEE this fabric! I fell in love with it the second I saw it. SOMEONE who shall remain nameless said it looks like it would make nice curtains *eyeroll* lol  It's 100% cotton but its REALLY thin. I LOVE IT!

Iphones DO work with Tmobile...

I like Tony's phone but I'm a blackberry girl at heart lol.

I preview books before I buy them. I picked this one up from the library for Tony and it's really a GREAT book! I ordered it from Amazon already lol. He loves it!

World Market is one of my favorite stores. Tony has NEVER been with me until yesterday...it's now his favorite store too lol

This is THE BEST STUFF EVER lol. REALLY good lol.

I had THE BEST BELLINI when I was in New Orleans. SO GOOD. Imma try this and see how it goes.  If it's good you will hear about it lol.

 

They have THE BEST GINGERSNAPS EVER. My dad LOVES these.  I do too lol.

 

YUMMMMMMMMMM! Tony saw these, grabbed them and stuck them in the cart before I knew it. THEY ARE SO GOOD. OMG. lol.

We even came home with a new chair lol. This thing is sooooooooo comfy! I'm going to let Tony believe this is his, but I can really see myself sitting here knitting and reading lol or even taking a nap ;-) When I curl up I fit perfectly! LOL

Ok, that's all I have for you guys today!

Hope you have a good one!!!

Toodles!

Weekend wrapup...Atlanta Edition lol.

We headed over to The Strip and had a fabulous time!

 

Hey, what was the name of that sauce?!?!?!?! I can't remember lol.

I had such a great time with you!!

Saturday. Talk about system overload!!!!

STITCHES WAS AMAZING!!!
 
I didn't really know what to expect lol. The only thing I DID NOT LIKE was the fact that you couldn't REALLY take pics inside. SO much interesting people and stuff to see!!!

It didn't really become real to me until I parked next to a car that had the tag "K2TOG" LOL I got REALLY excited then! LOL

I was SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO glad to FINALLY meet Robin We had a BLAST! She was such a good tour guide lol, and fun to hang out with. I was sooooo giddy and just silly the entire time lol.

Either I am TALL (which I'm not lol) or Robin is SHORT lol which she is lol. She is soooo nice and has soooo much knowledge about all things yarn and knitting. Just amazing!

I got soooooooooo many compliments on my green gable! Made me feel all warm and fuzzy inside! LOL

Love this pic of her lol

I went with this project in mind....

 

This gorgeous Orange LOVE Bamboo Fibers & Silk. This stuff feels SOOOOOOOOO good. This will be my first project from Custom Knits. It will also be my first time doing cables lol. I CAN DO THIS! LOL

 

I have NEVER purchased a pattern book for ONE PATTERN. But I did this time. I fell in LOVE with this top!! I was even able to try it on! SOOO cute. I hope I can do it justice lol. The yarn is Berroco Palace 50% Merino wool 50% Silk.

 

I KEPT walking past this booth. I LOVED the knitted sample (seeing projects knitted up is a WINNER!!!! LOL) I loved that!

I broke down and got it lol. Here is a link so you can see the top better...

Thalia

The yarn is Silk Noil. This feels soooooooooooo good.

Guess I'm figuring out I love silk and bamboo yarns lol.

This one is for a special project to be talked about MUCH later lol

 

That's it for me!!! I guess that's enough huh!? LOL

I used to use this stuff YEARS ago, then I ran out and kinda forgot about it. NOT NOW LOL.  Now I am NOT stressed out but this stuff is SO relaxing lol. LOVE IT.

I got some new numbers for my mailbox lol

I just want to revamp it ALL lol. So imma do it a lil bit at a time. It's all little stuff so you know...new vent covers, new wooden blinds in every room ( I have a TON of windows lol.

Toodles!

Field Trip...Field Trip!!! Oh, and weekend wrap-up lol.

Anytime my mom and I travel more than an hour with the girls we call it a field trip. Complete with snacks and all lol.

We set out early to a new and undiscovered fabric store. Now it's new to us but it has been around a WHILE lol. We already can't wait to go back lol.

I grabbed my "project sheet" lol (I just took the pattern envelope picture and made it smaller and put the fabric yardage under each picture. It REALLY helped to have a visual of each pattern. I will do this EVERY SINGLE TIME I go in the fabric store)

This store was small but PACKED TO THE GILLS!!!!!!!! It was awesome! THe prices?!!? INSANE! SUPER reasonable!!!!!


 

HEre is a peek at their linens....OMG. They are FABULOUS! Such great quality linens. *sigh* lol At super fabulous prices. LAWD lol.
 

Then there was this whole other room that we didn't even explore. I sent Kayla to take a pic while I was getting my fabric cut lol.

What did I get!??!?!!

Ooookkkkkk, that floral is SO GORGEOUS IRL. OMG. The polka dots are what the girls picked out, the white has white stripes in it (shirting fabric), and that turquoise is linen for a dress for Jaelyn, that green multi print!?!? LOVEEEEESSSSSSSSS IT.

These are ALL linens. That redish/orange at the bottom is SO fabulous!!!!

 

Ahhhhhhh this demin...I didn't really get a good pic of it but it has this sheen/shine to it and it is TDF. I don't know WHAT I'm going to make with it but it has a good stretch to it also. I fell in love with it. The green is a stretch cotton poplin. This stuff feels FANTASTIC. LOVE IT :-)

They did NOT have a selection of knits. Y'all know I could sew and wear knits all day every day but I was ok with all my woven purchases lol.

I purchased almost 30 yards of fabric...that's ok though isn't it Carolyn? LOL

After the fabric store we went to the mall and did a little shopping with the girls....

 

 

Left the mall and headed over to a local spot to grab some grub...

   

 

SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO good. OMG.

 

She was TI-RED lol. Just LAID out in the back seat lol.

Sunday Jaelyn was in a Tea at Church...

 

All the kids really dress up for it. Kayla and Aj weren't in it...THIS year lol.

 

My lil cousin Raymond :-)

We chilled out Sunday night, played some games on the Wii and just relaxed.

I've been busted about not posting any food pics soooooo I have some that I have stored up lol. I will get those to publish this week lol.

Alright! Ya'll have a SUPERB Monday!

Looks like my sewing mojo is back! LOL

New Look 6856

You can read a full review here.
I LOVEEEEEEEEE this pattern! It's a great basic wardrobe pattern.

I know some people frown at elastic waist bands, but I LOVE this! I needed some cute "play clothes" and this is perfect for it. Something quick to throw on when I go pick up the kiddos and still look cute!

I LOVE my Michelle Obama Inspired belt!!! Clearly it isn't the one she is wearing but close enough! LOL Trust me when I say you will see this look again...and SOON lol.  This works better with a solid than a print :-)

Ok...that's all for me! About to run and play with my mom! LOL
