Look out! Here comes the Spiderman!

My daughter and I recently saw the new Spiderman movie and looooooved it. I am a huge Marvel Comics fan and since I have no new projects on the horizon I decided to make both of us a purse in this cool Spidey fabric I recently found and a LQS. The Madison Wallet Bag by Serendipity Studios is gorgeous. I have been dying to make this bag since I got it in Paducah and the AQS show. I've never made any purses and this one looks simple enough.  I figure I can punch a few of these out this weekend. 

I will be making two out of the Spiderman fabric and one out of this cute Mickey Mouse comic strip.

 

 

 

 

Hope to have something adorable to show you guys real soon. Thanks for visiting and happy sewing.

 

 

p.s I am still working on that little top I mentioned in my last post. I wouldn't be normal if I didn't have more than one project in the works, lol.                                                                                    

 

Epic fail!

So, I had delusions of making that fabulous Vogue shirt. Ah no, it did not turn out so well. I have come to realize that as a newbie in fashion sewing, I will have tons of epic fails. However, I am committed to making nice clothes for myself.  I will not give up. So with all that being said, I have no new item to share.  I have embarked upon another journey but I have learned so much in the sewing world.  Another blogger has inspired me to try and make Butterick 5645. I am making the little leopard print number in a solid green knit. It is such a cute little number and I think if all goes well, I'll make a few of these as I am lacking summer tops. Here is a little inspiration until we meet again. Happy sewing!

I thought this was a quilt blog?

Nothing new is going on in my sewing world, at least as far making something is concerned.  I think I work best when I have a deadline LOL.  I may not have sewn anything but I have done a LOT of fashion pattern and fabric shopping.  Since we last talked I went to Paducah, KY for the annual AQS trip. I really didn't purchase many quilting items there but I certainly made up for it once I got home. Thanks to http://www.mimigstyle.com/ I have sooooo many clothes I want to try and make. I never thought that I would delve in fashion sewing but I think all types of sewing eventually spill over into each other.  I have ordered lots of fabric but I think my fear of messing up has halted my surge into fashion sewing.  However, I have started one top that I am hoping will not be a dud.  I plan on getting the final stitching and hems completed before this weekend. I hope there will be a finished and wearable top somewhere in the near future. Here is the inspiration piece from http://thenaturalfashionista.com/as well as the pattern and my attempted product. Thanks for stopping by and have a sew wonderful day!
