#NeedleWorkMonday🌸 State Fair project
Happy #NeedleWorkMonday!
🌸Please excuse my sideways photos.... Still figuring out how to fix that!🌸
My two oldest daughters and I have entered a few exhibit categories this year.
So, we have been working on our projects!
I entered five sewing categories.
For one, the "serged baby item", I decided to try a new pattern.
What is "serged"?
Check out the inside seam of your shirt.. Most likely it's a serged seam. A serger is a sawing machine that uses 3-5 spools of thread (mine uses 4) to stitch and finish the edge of the seam.
This is the Breezy Romper by Brindille & Twig.
I intended for this to be my entry piece, alas I made a few mistakes, and it's not up to my standards.
However, It was great practice and super cute on #hippiebaby!
Woot woot! Another beautiful mama-made outfit. Haha, she's adorable and you made a matching footie!
I have to get my sewing machine out. I have a pile I need to hem but don't want to mess with it right now
I hate hemming things! Haha!
Id much rather just make a whole new one!
I bought one of those iron on hem for my work slacks hahaha. I haven't made a whole outfit, well, if you count a body bag for the little ones out of my old pants, maybe I did make a "whole one". :)
Aw thank you!
I do love my messy head cheeser!
woww sooo pretty and such a talented mama!!! 😘
Thank you @vincy!
You made that!!!??? Wow!!! It's really really cute! I would buy that if I have a baby... My youngest is 4 now... The flower design would look pretty too if it's made into a dress... Maybe I should learn to sew one day... then I can make my girls dresses...
Thank you for the compliment!
I looove this print, I had 3 yards of it, but Im running low!
Ive used it many times for shoes too!
OMG!!! They are soooooo CUTE!!!
wow thats amazing!!!
😱😱😱 so beautiful!!!
That romper is adorable. I love the shape at the back, I think it is nice a little looser (and definitely practical for diapers 😉). The material is also one of my favourite colours.
Can I ask what went wrong with it? From these pictures it looks great.
Thank you!
It definitely fits generously. She wears 24m-2t in everything, this is the 18-24m pattern.
My serger was having issues keeping even tension, the neck band top stitching is awful and i messed up a snap, which damages the fabric some removing it to fix it :/
But its useable for my girl!
I see now why I couldnt see in the photos. Good luck on round 2. It looks good on 😀
Ahh the photography tricks ;)
Good photos and well presented things make even the not so great things look nice!
Accept the compliment, it was your skill too!
There you go! 100% upvote kisses for you! Love your needlework! Unfortunately, boys don't get cute rompers like these! hahahaha #steemitmamas
Thank you 💋
Actually, this romper is so cute on boys ( in less girly prints). Check out the pattern link, lots of little boys wearin it!:)
What a great pattern! The fabric is lovely, too.
Thank you!
The Brindille & Twig patterns are really easy to follow, they come with great tutorials!
The fabric came from The Purple Seamstress, she has the best prices on very high quality fabric!
This is the cutest romper and even cuter model <3 I wish I was half as clever as you!!! Kisses
Thank you! I love my full time models!
You ARE very clever, esp at things Im still wrapping my head around! Like coin, and bytes, etc.
😘😘.
That’s lovely @corrielaine.
Nothing compares to clothing lovingly sewn by your own mama.
Loving the prints, and the matching shoes!
Thank you🌸
I always LOVED when my mom made our clothes! My girls seem to as well!
Much love and kiss and hugs to you. Will let other mamas to catch you. Coz I got one before. :)
By the way, I admire your talent and work. Your daughter is blessed. :)
Thank you💞
