Brown Birds and Cream

So I wanted to use up some of my stash, and I really love this fabric. I wanted to make a feminine full apron, and along the way I decided to use the criss cross back design that I use on the Regency Inspired aprons. I put the apron on and wore it around for a bit, and it's really comfy! The criss cross straps really help it stay in place and made it easy to forget I was even wearing it. It's available in my Etsy shop now.

Denim Skirt from Old Jeans

So I had some grungy jeans that I wore all the time, they were so comfy! In fact I wore them so much that I ended up with holes where the thighs rubbed together, lol. I finally bought myself some new jeans but didn't want to throw the old ones away. I finally got around to doing what I had in mind...turning the old jeans into a skirt!

And so I did...now I have a grungy new comfy denim skirt. :-D

Something for Me!

It's been a while since I made something for myself...I decided to make a crafty toolbelt-ish apron so that all my sewing tools are close at hand. I used some red canvas I had and some pretty white and red decorative fabric to girly it up, and lace, along with a cute little pleated trim. :-)
