Sewing has been the one craft I really had a hard time with until recently. I think the thing I got stuck on was patterns. They frustrate me soooo much! I am talking about the one's you buy at JoAnn's. The sizing is never right, a lot of times the directions aren't written clearly, and there are hardly any pictures! I am a visual person so I really like how to pictures. Well I just love all the cool sewing blogs out there and the free patterns people put on them. Usually they are full of pictures which is awesome! I have been making a lot of clothes for the wee one and I just love how they are turning out! The best is when you can make clothes out of something you already have. I use old shirts, pants, and bed sheets to make all sorts of stuff. I found a new blog today called
Confessions of a Sewing Dork. I was so excited to find another self proclaimed dork! She has great patterns too.
Aren't they awesome!! I used
this pattern to make them. What a great way to re-purpose old wool sweaters!
I really like these ones.
I also made this hat out of an old shirt. I just did my own thing on this one. Is it possible to die of cuteness overload because I think I might!!!
Oh my gosh stop it it's too cute! She looks like she should be in the next showing of Fiddler on the Roof.
