I love working on a sewing project, but while I am in the midst of it, I find it impossible do anything else until I'm done. Like eat, or drink, or leave my office. Then I end up with a whopper of a headache. Sigh. Sometimes I hate sewing.
But yesterday wasn't so bad, because aside from the sewing-induced headache, I ended up with these:
a pretty skirt for me
a pretty dress for MabelEaster Sunday here we come.

Gorgeous!!!! You've inspired me to sew clothes again.
ReplyDeleteWay to get a head start! I finally picked up a pattern for the girls Easter outfits. Did you put a zipper in the skirt?
ReplyDeletesuper pretty. you guys will look lovely on easter (and on the cruise?)
ReplyDeleteThose are beautiful!!! I am very impressed!
ReplyDeleteCute skirt and I love Mabel's dress. It's so girly!
ReplyDeleteLOVE your skirt.
ReplyDeleteMabel's dress is adorable. I've got the feeling that with moving and everything, my girls just aren't getting Easter dresses this year. :(
so pretty - you amaze me. it's hard enough for me to follow a pattern and end up with a product i love - you do it without a pattern?! amazing!
ReplyDeleteDarling! And I must say, I was looking for sewing inspiration today and yours was the first site I clicked on having no idea there would be sewing and vaguely knowing you were Leslie's sister. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteVery beautiful! Thanks for sharing your pics!
ReplyDeleteBoth are so pretty. And you're tiny!
ReplyDeleteBoth skirt and dress are beautiful! I'm the same way when I get sewing and Tim hates it. He says I neglect all things when I sew...it's true! I like to finish my project. If I spend all that time cutting the pattern, goshdarnit, I'm going to see it to the end!! : )
ReplyDeleteI've taken a break from sewing because of the slight obsessive fabric shopping it induces, but looking at these pretty pieces is lighting that fire again. uh oh...
Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteMy sewing machine sits very alone up in my closet.
Poor thing!

So, so pretty! I love that you can make a skirt with out a pattern. I've got two dresses started for the girls... I need to get working on those!
ReplyDeletelove. love. wish i were as talented as you :)
ReplyDeleteI can't believe you made that without a pattern- it is really cute, and you have a tiny waist, and I love Maybel's dress.
ReplyDeleteWow, those are beautiful! you did a great job.
ReplyDeleteStephanie, this is Nicole Rollins, from your Provo ward way back when...I saw a comment posted on Alissa's blog about Stephanie and Mabel, and figuring it was you, had to click over.
ReplyDeleteYou children are adorable and you look as cute as I remember you. Also, I'm very impressed with your sewing abilities. My mother is an excellent seamstress, I don't have a clue and wish I did.
Ben is getting his MBA right now and we're living in Mexico for his last semester. Feel free to check out our blog...www.theradrollins.blogspot.com.
It's good to see you guys...well, at least pictures of you guys!
