I haven't sewn for 13 years, bought a couple of new machines in December and started again. I'd forgotten how much I love it!!! I had never sewn from a pattern before joining the Burda website, I'd always just sort of done my own thing, now I'm learning to draft my own patterns.

As you requested, I finally did a How-To on my Grey Dress! www.burdastyle.com/howtos/show/1033# The How-To is a shirt, but all you have to do is extend the fabric lower (and flare) for a dress! By the way, thanks for the comment. You have beautiful work!

way too busy for loads of sewing

Hi Keelysews! Thanks for your comment! Now that you mention it, my wall is pretty full, but so is yours I see ;) I started the thread about pattern making software because I would like to learn more about it and if possible, try it. I'm always making patterns by hand, and to take it further in any way, I would have to go digital. I got a lot of nice and helpful comments from that thread, but unfortunately, I don't have the money right now to buy expensive software. Thanks for your complements and let there be rock ;P

making tiny legs (then the body)!

Thanks for the lovely comment on my jacket. Your creations are amazing. I'm going to try the JJ blouse next. I really like yours.

Hiya!

Yes, the dress is for sale in my etsy shop, and the belt! Custom orders a pleasure, of course, and I'll be taking pix of my other fabrics and uploading to my flickr tomorrow.

Hi Keely! You're very sweet, thanks! These pants are my favorite creation so far! I wasn't sure about the wide legs and high waist( post two kids) but they rock!!! Have fun w/ yours and I'll look forward to seeing them posted soon.

deciding what project to do next...

Hi Keelysews, thanks for your message on my wall. I'm sort of just getting the hang of this sewing stuff, and I find your creations very inspiring, and I LOVE your style. I'm willing to bet the weather here is a Lot colder than yours right now...here, winter continues. >:( So, you're a Mommy, too? How do you find time (and energy!!!) to sew as much as you do?!?! I have half as many children as you, and I find it busy enough!

nightgown to dress to shirt...

Oh, my fabric may not be the same. While it is very comfortable as well, it is not heavy but very very sheer! I'm going to use it for lining on a floor length summer dress (or maybe knee length) of my own design soon. Also, thank you for the comments on my creations!
