My Sewing Projects

[Maja]

Thank you for lovely compliments everyone! All your words mean a lot.

The fabrics appear to be mostly knits of some type or another for the tops?

Little did I know that coming on to makeup talk, and I would get a double bonus, and get to see great work and talk my hobby as well.

First of all, welcome to MakeupTalk!

And thank you for nice words.
Now to answer your question....

Patterns:

green wrap - McCalls 4779

pink 3/4 sleeves - self-drafted

white with green binding - New Look 6405

black long-sleeves - self-drafted

twist top - Burda World of Fashion 04/2005, patt.#112

baby-doll - self-drafted

I don't have any formal education as far as sewing is concerned. I took 2 sewing classes and a pattern-drafting class and learned the rest myself through trial and error.

The fabric for tops are all knits.

We have quite a few ladies sewing on MuT. Here's the thread devoted to sewing.
