Planning for the Future

In 2019, I want to go into the year with the mindset of "Why Not" try. Too often we let Nah sayers including ourselves stop us from doing something courageous. We tell ourselves why should I even try when I will fail. We set ourselves up for failure before we even launch. This year I …

DIY Printed Chiffon Pull Over Top with Modifications

Simplicity 8601

Hi Lovies, I have been waiting to write this post for two weeks now. This pattern was on my to-do list since earlier this summer. It was a very popular make, but I wasn't feeling good over the summer, so I didn't bother to try. During last months "No TV Challenge" I decided to give …

The Fastest/Simplest Way to Make a Bow Tie

Hey loves, As some of you may know, sewing is a form of therapy that has really turned into a passion for me. When I get something right, it makes my week. And when I get something completely wrong it's like the world has ended. That's when the hubby avoids the sewing area at all …

McCall 7686 Pattern Review: Off The Shoulder Bell Sleeve Shirt

I am trying something new this year where I sew 2 -3 garments a month. My goal is to use the fabric that I have been hoarding in my bookshelves and really learn from my mistakes so I can get better. I didn't want to go at it alone, so I joined a sewing group …

Here’s a little teaser Tuesday for you. This is just an update on the Moto jacket that I’m working on. It’s still cool out here in Arizona so hopefully my hand will heal enough that I can finish this bad boy. Or you’ll see some inventive sewing going on. - - - - - - - - - #introvertstylist #phxblogger #phoenixblogger #sewistofinstagram #bloggerstyle #imakemyownclothes #ilovetocreate #creativesofinstagram #ilovesewing #sewingaddict #handmadegarments #memadeeveryday #isew #teasertuesday
So currently I did something to my wrist which normally I would allow me to stop sewing or do anything related to sewing all together. But I am determined to improve this year so I’ll be reading books in the meantime. I’ll make sure to share my recommendations.⠀ ⠀ Here’s a little motivational quote for Presidents’ Day. Happy Monday!⠀ ⠀ #PresidentsDay⠀ #mondaymotivation ⠀ #IntrovertStylist⠀ #BarackObama⠀ #MotivationalQuotes
Growing up I always wanted my mom to teach me how to do make up. I finally got my wish today. Goes to show you you’re never too old. This was a great way to end the week of being sick all week. #mommydaughtertime #introvertstylist
Oh my gosh y’all, you do not know how many takes I had to do of this video to get it under 60 seconds LOL. Trying to meet these Instagram standards is crazy, ha ha ha. Hope you guys enjoy the #fabrichaulfriday and if you purchased some fabric today and would like to share please feel free to use the tag. I’d love to see what you found. - - - - - - - - - #introvertstylist #phxblogger #phoenixblogger #sewistofinstagram #bloggerstyle #imakemyownclothes #ilovetocreate #creativesofinstagram #ilovesewing #sewingaddict #handmadegarments #memadeeveryday #isew #browngirlbloggers
Last year I attended my first Phoenix Fashion Week. I was really inspired by these Moto jackets and dresses for the jacket that I’m working on. Mine will not be as bedazzled but there will be some flair. Don’t you just love a little sparkle? - - - - - - - - - #introvertstylist #motojacket #alittlesparkle #sewinginspo #sewinginspiration #phxfashionweek
I haven’t shared a #WCW in a while. here are five of the ladies who are spicing things up in the sewing and knitting community that are new faves of mine. @macsmakespace @sewflo @whatsammade Create a platform to share makers of diverse backgrounds and ethnicity. Their page is @meetmakersofcolor They are introducing the creativity community to individuals we wouldn’t normally see unless we searched hard and I love it! @tabithasewer is the BFF of the sewing community. She really makes you feel like you’ve known her for years. And her work is inspirational. @winmichele I just discover the past year and I love how clean and elegant her sewing is and she’s a sweetheart. If you’re interested in sewing or knitting make sure to check them out. I look forward to meeting all these ladies in the near future. Some sooner than you think. 😉 - - - - - - - - - #introvertstylist #phxblogger #phoenixblogger #sewistofinstagram #bloggerstyle #imakemyownclothes #ilovetocreate #creativesofinstagram #ilovesewing #sewingaddict #handmadegarments #memadeeveryday #isew
