Creative: Sewing

I read Barbara's post at The Middle Ages about clothes and styling, and thought...hey...that's the opportunity to show the clothing items you made.

First of all: I never learned how to sew. Yeah, I had a course at school, where we did some sewing, but that was ages ago.

I just do it. And I know, everybody, who knows how to sew, would throw his hands up in horror! I don't care. ;) Of course, I try to learn new things, and improve my skills...but still, it's all about the fun! :D

The ideas are all mine. I make my own patterns. They're not perfect, but I'm proud, because I made them.

Time for Becki's fashion show.

That's my first shirt. Made out of IKEA bedding. The sleeve looks weird on the pic. It's a trumpet sleeve. 
I'll never wear that dress, I guess. I found this fabric at home, and wanted to do something with it.

That's my favourite piece. I love this dress. It fits perfectly, and it turned out exactly like I wanted it to be. I'm very proud of the neck binding.

A friend of mine had a jumper with a bunny on it. I wanted a bunny jumper, too...so I created one. May be a little bit silly, but I don't care. ;) Was my first hood, and it turned out ok-ish.


I needed a new hat, but I couldn't find one that I liked. So I sewed one.  It's a little bit too big. Also made an infinity scarf and mittens.

That's my newest piece, and it's not finished, yet (my sewing machine is reall bitchy right now, needs to get fixed). You can also see that I LOVE butterflies.

Well, I love Harry Potter. So I sewed the robe. I like it very much! :D

  1. Becki you are so amazing!!! I can not sew. I've tried. Actually, my sewing machine is sitting out right now with a project I want to work on and I'm frustrated with the thing. I love your butterfly shirt. Very cute. Ikea has the coolest fabric. It's so fun and colorful and I'm just a big fan of the Harry Potter robe. :) Nice work!
