Hey Loves!
This time off work with my children has been great! The little guy and I are really enjoying each other. The bigger guys are trying to make my hair gray and I think they are succeeding. BUT, I love them and wouldn't have it any other way.
When the middle guy and the little guy are napping, I slip in my craft room to spend time with my Brother. That's my special place. Together, we make things I love.
My latest creations are all about back details. I have a little junk in the trunk. LOL I had it before it was popular. So, I actually like clothing that accents by junk. LOL Check out these inspiration pieces:
Here are my creations:
The Shirt: ASOS TALL Swing Dress With Off Shoulder Gypsy Detail - $37.00 |
Express Mixed Fabric Tulip Back Tee - $19.99 |
Here are my creations:
I love this shirt because it's really simple in the front but the back is a little racy. The tulip cut in the back can be cut higher to make it sexier or lower to make it more conservative. I made this shirt by modifying NewLook A6217 - I did a pattern review including my modification on patternreview.com. Click here to view it. The fabric used was a soft white light weight jersey knit. I know this post is about the shirt but I made the skirt she's wearing too (it was one of the first things I made). You can't go wrong with a maxi.
The Dress:
Drafted using my circle skirt pattern, my modifications, and some modifications suggested by some of my Facebook sew sisters. I used this polyester fabric I've had in my stash for months. I loved the fabric when I saw it. I bought the last 3 yards at $2/yard at Wal-Mart.
These turned out really cute. If you'd like a custom version of either one of these, contact me at chelseaschest@gmail.com.
Until next time, smooches!
