New Yellow Blouse

that's the dress i made last night.i made a pattern and made this as a sample to see if the pattern works.And guess what,it did.

It was another good sewing session.the whole thing was completed within 45 minutes from start to finish,drafting the pattern,cutting and sewing.the stitching had to wait due to a toddler clinging on my legs.i couldn't sleep after everyone was tucked in,so i finished it. :) i love hanging out hanging out by myself and my stitching or other crafty crafty when everyone is gone to sleep.pure bliss.

Don't mind the scribbled background.(that was the best place i could get some decent light from.The wall outside my kitchen.The kids next door like drawing there.me,not so much.)

The trim is the same as i used on this one.I've got lots and lots of yards of this same trim,good thing i don't seem to get tired of it.

The little flower bunch is embroidered.I am still having doubts about the color.it doesn't look too bad does it?

I'm in a very sewy mood these days.Here is to making a lot more dresses while i am feeling like so.

======help!======

I tried my hands at ribbon embroidery when i was pregnant.i had satin ribbon and its difficult to get through the fabric.i crippled my hand for a week after this lol.For some reason i never got to finishing this.(OK the design is not completely working for me and i dont want to break my hand again for something that i wont even really like.) Can you give me some suggestions what i should with about this?Wanna do something worth my while..i spent a lot of time on this!(And poor fingers too.their pain should not be in vain right.)

It looks alright if you are looking at the details.the whole thing all of it sucks,but..when you look at it little bits a part at a time..then its ok.


peachy flower=pretty
Roses and buds=awesome

Embroidered..weed is it?


MOre flowers and leaves=alright

bullion knots combined with fly stitch


And finally the whole thing..what the what???see what i mean?
or is it just me?
Any suggestions would be well received!
