Psst! Can I tell y’all a big secret of mine? I wear sunglasses in my photos when I haven’t done my make up. 😩 Y’all still love me, right? Anyway, I’m throwing it back to just last Fall when I made a cape using @mccallpatterncompany #m6209. The trees in the background are my fave! 🍁🍂 Enjoy! 😘 . . #throwback #throwbackthursday #tbt #sewing #quicksew #easysewingproject #sewsewsew #imadethis #isew #mccallspatterns #fallfashion #diyootd #handmadewardrobe #makersgonnamake #memade #memadeeveryday

Well, that chapter is done and LIVE on the blog! 👏🏽 I made my first pair of jeans y’all! And if you follow my stories then you know this has taken me about a month to complete. I mean...we went through fabric options and I even had to buy a new serger in the middle of this project. But dear God...I actually want to do this again! 😂👀 Oh, and I’m setting this pic right here because...well, you get it. . .

My first pair of jeans? Still loading... I was doing great until I broke a piece on my serger. (Idk) So...it’s out of commission.😩 It happened all of a sudden & very quickly last night. So I say all of that to say I’ve had to rearrange some projects. Either way, I’m still very proud of my progress with this project. If you need me, I’ll be cutting fabric or doing house chores. 🤷🏻‍♀️😩😢 . . Pattern: @simplicity_creative_group #s8516 @mimigstyle #mimigjeans #mimigpatterns .

These are not regular pajamas, these are bougie pajamas! 😂😉 . I’ve always wanted a pair of Scottie dog PJ’s! Is that weird? So when @minervadotcom asked for a holiday pajama look, this fabric was a no-brainer! I used @simplicity_creative_group pattern #s8803 for my look. And a bonus fact about this pattern...I used my @madamsew piping foot for the trim. Oh my gosh 😱 it was a dream to sew up! Isn’t it funny how having the right foot can make a huge difference!? Anywho, I hope you enjoy some early Christmas cheer 😘 . . . . . #isew #sewing #christmas #merrychristmas #christmaspajamas #handmadewardrobe #imadethis #isewedthis #diyootd #memadeeveryday #memadewardrobe #memade #sewist #sewistsofinstagram #simplicitypatterns #minervacraftsbloggernetwork #sewingblogger #madamsew #madebyme #holidaydiy

Alexa play “Upside Down” by Diana Ross... When @minervadotcom sent over this fabric, I died 5 times and changed my design about 10 times. 😬 Ask my friends! I’ve been referring to this project as my “sequin number.” (Seriously, just call me Ms. Ross). 😂😂 What I settled on was something that speaks to my flower child spirit, along with a bit of diva-dom. Two themes (IMO) that are always warring against one another when it comes to my personal style. And after searching through my pattern library I decided to use the #sukirobe by @helens__closet for this “number.” As you know, I don’t sketch, but I sketched this one on loose leaf. 🤷🏻‍♀️ And still, I was terrified that this could end bad (think “Golden Girls” and shoulder pads). 😂 But! My gamble paid off! 🙌🏽 This was a quick sew and a lot of fun to make...but I would be remiss if I didn’t mention the amount of sequins on my carpet at the moment. Poor Nala has sequins in her fur now too. 😹...she’ll be fine, y’all. All the deets will be on Minerva’s blog later, but I wanted to share with you guys right away 😂 ✨ Happy Monday! 😘 . . . . . #helenscloset #helensclosetpatterns #indiepatterns #indiesewing #indiesewingpattern #sukikimono #minervacrafts #minervamakes #sewing #isew #makersgonnamake #sewist #sewistsofinstagram #ilovesewing #imadethis #handmadewardrobe #seweverydayseptember #memade #memadeeverday #memadeclothes #memadecloset #diyootd #coutureaddict #couture
