โœจI started and finished my first pair of beaded earrings! Thanks to a VERY good friend of mine for the motivation, beading together when ever I get a chance ( which is not that often these days) beading is a very nice and calming practice that yields fabulous things!

Here is also my sons first stocking that I made recently! ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜Šโคโœจ

โœจ๐Ÿ˜„Sewing poem:

Shorten sleeves, patch them knees, don't pin or prick yourself.
Measure here, snip it there, cotton, nylon, spandex, felt.
Iron flat, sew it back, I want it fitted tight. Shorter here, wider there, so it feels just right.

Sew-psyched to be your local seamstress, sewing words into rhymes, building community one stitch at a time. ๐Ÿ’–

Sewing on the weekend

โœจMade my first Tunic for a client recently, she chose a beautiful patterned fabric!
Lucky I had some bias tape in my drawers of things that worked well with it!

It pays off to have so many random bits of trims and notions sometimes ๐Ÿ˜…๐Ÿ˜‚

โœจ Take Back ๐Ÿค“

The first dress I made.๐Ÿ”ฅ
This was particularly made for prom during one of two co-ops I did in highschool!
๐Ÿ’•โœจ๐Ÿ’•โœจ๐Ÿ’•โœจ๐Ÿ’•โœจ๐Ÿ’•โœจ๐Ÿ’•โœจ๐Ÿ’•
Dupioni silk, Boning, Eyelits, Corset back, Reinstones... I didn't make it alone of course. But it was designed by me.
๐Ÿ˜ˆI had another design that was even less appreciate for the not so strict French Catholic highschool I attended.
Two years after our year graduated, they introduced uniforms ๐Ÿ˜ต

I was one of the last to enjoy the freedom of expression when it came to fashion.

Working at a value village then, I quickly fell in love with VINTAGE and was showing up with clothing my peers thought outlandish or strange because I was playing with decades and styles all of the time.
๐Ÿ˜’ They knew not that I was bringing something new to the modern scene. Lol

Much love,
Fashionista Sew-Psyched

Often the reality of things outside your life sink into your everyday thoughts and actions and makes a mess of it all. ๐Ÿ˜‚

Here is a piece I did for a friend who was taking part in a dance. The piece had to have something that represented your heritage. His was Irish and Hungarian. Hence the white stag and Harp. It was pretty fun thinking up way and ideas to get them to be looky and attractive while dancing on stage! But there we have it!

What do you think?! ๐Ÿ˜ƒ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿผโœจ

I've never made anything this Kool. ๐Ÿ˜ƒ๐Ÿ˜„๐Ÿ˜Œ
I'm pretty proud to accomplish such a neat project. This was one of those ideas I've had for like two years...

โœจNOW here it is!!!

Totally unique one of a kind. The plaid was something that was obviously sewn together to make a blanket or something but I bought it second hand and turned it into a JUMPER WITH POCKETS!

โœจ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿฝ๐Ÿ“ข Trying something new to keep my small sewing business from falling into the void... ๐Ÿ˜ซ
๐Ÿ‘ŒClothing outfit auctions.โœจ
I will start posting photoโ€™s of outfits I put togetherโ€ผ๏ธ These are mostly second hand clothes and some of them include jewelry, and hats as well as possibly bags and shoes! ๐Ÿ‘œ๐Ÿฅฟ๐ŸŽฉAuction price will start quite low.

The outfit auction picture posts will have the brands, the sizes and colours. ๐Ÿ”ด๐ŸŸ ๐ŸŸก๐ŸŸข๐Ÿ”ต๐ŸŸฃ

The winner will get 75% of the value $ returned as a policy if the outfit does not fit & is returned. Drop off will be possible within the vicinity and pick up will always be available shortly after the winner is defined when the final auction date is up. Winner must pay for shipping if that is needed.

I hope you're Sew-Psyched like I am! ๐Ÿคฉ
