What I'm Sewing...
I just got my order of the new Vogue Patterns in the mail so last night I picked the one I was going to make first which is of course V1314 by Tracy Reese (mark my words! this will be a VERY popular pattern this season) and so once I decided on the pattern I went online to do some fabric shopping at Gorgeous Fabrics and of course in true Ann form she had so many great fabrics!
More Fabric....
Of course while I was on the site I saw this super cute fabric to make myself another pencil skirt from my uber EASY tutorial and this fuchsia and black Sassy Stripe Fabric double knit is just what I need, it is so fabulous!
Then there was this ONE which I hough was great because the dots start small and get bigger, LOVE how subtle that is but way cute.
Last night my mom and I made two pencil skirts from your uber easy tutorial. It's a great tutorial. Love both my skirts! Thank you much! I am telling everyone about your tutorials. My friend made the maxi skirt from your tutorial on Sunday and she loves it also.
ReplyDeleteThank you for mentioning the fabric(s) you used to make your garments when you do the tutorials. It makes life so much easier for people like me who have never sewn a stitch.
That is awesome!!
DeleteLike the shoes. I just bought that pattern last week. Love the floral touch. I also am getting ready to sew up my sew a long project and make some baby shoes for my niece. Love the nail polish. Is that mojito madness again?? Or another color? Can't wait to show you the pics for the sew a long!!!
ReplyDeleteNo, its "Pretty Edgy" by Essie
DeleteI love both the zebra stripe and the dots. Can't wait to see what you pair up with those skirts. Thanks for keep inspiring!
ReplyDeleteThanks
DeleteThis pattern is having me jump for joy. I've been wanting this pattern just as badly as I've wanted a good pencil skirt pattern. I will also do some sexy back cutouts for some of my dresses. EXCITED. This was right on time! Thanks....
ReplyDeleteLOL, Im excited too. I cant wait to start making winter coats
DeleteI love how you add fab accessories to turn even the simplest of outfits into something gag worthy. Those shoes are killer, love that shade of blue. I can't wait to see you in the floral printed dress.
ReplyDeleteThanks ;-)
DeleteCan't wait to see how that dress turns out - I'm sure it's going to be fabulous!
ReplyDeleteI cant wait for the fabric to arrive!
DeleteI just got my new Vogue Fall patterns today. The Tracy Reese dress is definitely in the bunch. As a matter of fact the fabric that I plan to use for that dress is similar to what the model is wearing!!! I love your nail polish!! You look awesome as always.
ReplyDeleteThank you doll!
DeleteThis one was in my order too. Vogue really outdid themselves this time. I can't wait to see yours. I have about 5 more pieces for Summer that I want to sew and then I think I'll move on to Fall sewing. I love how you put these colors together and made it werk!
ReplyDeleteMe too, I have a few summer pieces to make but I am planning fall now ;-)
DeleteI love your shoes!!!
ReplyDeleteyou look gorgeous in this look! Love the pop of color, especially the shoes :)

ReplyDeleteGreat outfit, too. Can't wait to see the pencil skirt in one of those fab patterns.
Thanks!
Deleteyes you right, eventhough i never comment but i always stay tune on your blog:x... it is always nice and inspiring me:x.. thanks mimi...
ReplyDeleteThanks for coming out of hiding, lol
Deletexoxo
Those shoes! *swoon*
ReplyDeleteThanks ;-)
DeleteI'll add this pattern to my collection also. I love the floral fabric, Florals can be tricky but this one is gorge. I'm finishing up your strapless maxi out of a beautiful floral print fabric. A winter coat sew a long would be fab...Just sayin'.
ReplyDeleteThanks babe, that coat sew along is a good idea. I have no idea how to run a sew-along and still need to figure it out, lol
DeleteI can't wait to try your tutorials. I just got a sewing machine and am excited to learn to sew with you as a guide I know it will be fabulous.
ReplyDeleteYay! so excited for you.
DeleteLove love love the heelless shoes! thanks for showing the vogue pattern, looks a great one! x
ReplyDeleteThanks ;-)
DeleteMimi,
ReplyDeleteLove the outfit! Have those shoes in orange....so inspired by you to wear them. I was tempted to send them back because I wanted them in blue :-(...But, I can wear the jean cargo skirt with a green top like yours and my orange heelless wedges. You are AWESOME!! Thank you for all that you do!
I love my shoes, I have them in black too.
DeleteCan't wait to see how you rock the black ones... :-)
DeleteLove the fabrics you choose. I can't wait to see your dress and pencil skirts when they're done.
ReplyDeleteThanks!
DeleteLove the fabric you picked. I'm a huge fan of the dots...wearing dots today btw!! :-) Oh!...Let's not forget to mention how FLY those shoes are! Really like them.
ReplyDeleteA neon owl? Really...never would I have thunk it, but you rocked it!
ReplyDeleteLOL, thanks
DeleteI am reallyu loving the polka dots! I need to chill out on adding so much of it to my wardrobe! LOL!!! Love your blog you are such an inspiration!
ReplyDeleteThank you ;-)
Deleteits so simple yet elegant! and it seems easy enough to make a few in some funky colors, and staple colors! One ill have to try after i lose a bit of this post baby tummy
ReplyDeleteThanks ;-)
DeleteThat outfit looks great! It's casual, but cute. You never stop amazing me how you put items together. I would have never thought to wear those colors together. You always make it look effortless! ;)
ReplyDeleteThank you!
