All tagged everyday skirt
this week i'll be recapping my projects from 2015 and taking about some of my plans for early 2016. today i'm kicking it off by talking about the skirts and dresses i made this year.
for 2015 i made myself two sewing resolutions. over a few posts i will share them as well as a third i'm adding for 2016.
my first resolution is to have less fabric.
crazy right?
sometimes aunt maggie needs to sew for herself. now in general i prefer to sew for kids over adults for a few reasons:
- kids clothing doesn't have to fit precisely (it's more about drawstrings and elastic waistbands, less darts and zippers). because this part is easier, i can focus my energy on trying new and different techniques, patterns, and fabrics.
- i'm not really a clothes girl, seriously if i could pull off that whole steve jobs uniform thing i would.
- adult clothing takes a lot more fabric and time, which is tough for me to commit to. maybe i should explore that in therapy.
