See my sewing course results :)

In most of my posts I write about going every saturday to my sewing course.

But I only showed in the beginning what I have sewn. The apron and the loop I made at home.

Today I will show you WHAT I made in my course.

My first sewing course day has been september 28th. Now we are end of march and I finished this saturday the 3rd piece for myself. All other things I made so far has been for friends and family. Can you believe it?

Unfortunality I didnt made photos from all the things I’ve done. I asked my god child to get photos of the middle age cape I made for her. She needed this cape for her final examination. We didnt wanted to buy a ready-made cape because they didnt looked so good. So I bought dark green woolen, and sew it in my course.

Here are 2 photos:

The cape isnt to long. It was made for her model which is 1 or 2 inches larger then Sonja. Unfortunality you cant see the beautyful dark green here. It seems dark grey. I even bought a brooch to make it more middle age authentic.

Here are 2 jackets I made for myself 🙂

They are not perfekt, but I started both in october. Today I’m better with the seams hehe

The red jacket has been planned for the Advent season lol. The flannel inside is with Rudolph.

The grey jacket is with my much-loved dots and my fav color. I’m sure this jacket will get one of my favorite 🙂

New fabric for spring and Easter – couldnt stop buying it

Posted on March 23, 2015 by justelly1

The new fabric collection for spring and Easter is out.

I couldnt resist. The new fabrics are too cute 🙂

This fabrics are for decoration at home. I will make baskets, tableclothes and stuffed animals.

I know I bought to much, but hey, I can make gifts for family and friends 🙂

I also got new nautical fabric

do you see the one with the stripes? One side is blue, the other side is red. This fabric is a little thicker. I;m not sure will I sew 2 shorts or one 5 pocket jeans?

The 2 fabrics on the left will get blouses, the dark blue is jersey and will get a nice tee

The nautical fabrics are from my fabric store where I’m learning to sew. Every saturday I tell myself not to buy a new fabric. But when I see the new ones I had to have them hehe

Spring photos — again

I switched my camera with my god child this week. Mine is a full frame camera, but her camera has a 1.6 crop factor. This means my 100mm macro objective has now 160mm with her camera. I really really love this objective 🙂

I went away from work early yesterday to make photos. A lot of days I’m coming home after 10 or more hours. This means winter isnt my season to make a lot of photos because of the darkness.

Yesterday has been such a lovely day: warm, sunny ….

I had to leave work hehehe

More and more spring flowers has been out there. Also many bugs and other insects. This is why I love to work with a crop factor 🙂

Yes, its been a long time since my last post.

Dunno why, but I didnt had energy for working at home. But since one week its like I woke up. Maybe I ‘m related to polar bears and had to sleep all winter like they do LOL

Whatever. One week ago I startet to work on pimping my home again.

Yes, I’m still going every saturday to my sewing course. But guess what! I made 2 things – in words TWO – only for myself. All other stuff I sew so far has been for friends or my god child. And now I’m planning a gift for my god child again hehe

Last weekend has been the first time this year with temperatures about 50 degrees. I had to go out with my camera and look for spring pictures

YES spring is here 🙂
