Back to the 50's - Mini Bloomers

Now, I totally got obsessed with these Mini Bloomers shorts. It definitely was love at first sight and had to make 2 in a row.
I found this free pattern on Colette Patterns website. I added the vertical stripes going upwards from the bow tie, since I thought it looks a little more vintage.

Bag-ism

I got into a phase of making all these bags and ended up giving them away to friends and family.
Even though I have non left, I managed to take pictures of them to at least remind me of what I am capable of making, since I just started to sew.
These bags are half way invented but luckily there is the internet to help out and on my search for some ideas, I came across Bumble Bee Bliss where I found a tutorial for a gathered bag that I fell in love with.
The first bag I made got given to Jivan, who helped me out and gave me good ideas with my first few sewing projects. It helps so much having someone around with smart tricks! Thanks Jivan.

Step By Step Mardi GrasMask

Even though it is not Mardi Gras time, I thought to do a step by step tutorial for one variation of a mask. Masks are a great thing to do, since you can be so creative while you go along. You never know where it will end up. This one turned out great. Let's go have a party! Ready?

Enjoy!
