what's up party people? 😎 I'm just popping in to show you these jeans I finished a week ago and haven't taken off since!👖making jeans is so, so doable, and I'm so happy I took the leap and purchased the jeans making course from @closetcase.patterns !
.
pattern is the mid-rise ginger jeans with stovepipe legs, and fabric is the 10oz s-gene stretch denim from @blackbirdfabrics. full deets are on my blog if you want to learn more ✨

gratuitous update on my lemon embroidery 🍋: while I mostly ignored this project during the months of august and september - cold weather is about to be upon us, and so I'm trying to crank out the home stretch of stitching while watching season 1 of the great british baking show (yes, I am who knows how many years late to that party 🥳).
.
this panel will be the backside of a Hampton jean jacket, which is already cut and ready to sew together once I finish this! I'm currently on hold, however, until I pick up more yellow embroidery floss - what you see in the lemon so far is an entire skein of floss 🙊 swipe to see the backside and why this is such a floss eater 😂

one of my favorite parts of sewing is customizing small details like pocket linings. 😻 I'm working on my first pair of ginger jeans, & I opted to use this fabric which was gifted by my mom after her trip to Japan last spring. construction design decisions are ones that mostly go unnoticed by anybody except me, but nonetheless provide small (. . . dare I say?!) POCKETS of joy throughout my day. and we all need more of those, right?
.
I'm also currently in what I like to call the disillusionment stage of this project - basically when my perfectionism starts to say it's not coming together as I imagined - give up now and find a new hobby! 😂
.
but seeing as there's nothing actually WRONG with the project (it's just . . not perfect, duh 🤦🏼‍♀️), experience has taught me that if I can push through, I'll be happy & forgiving with my work on the other side.

how I feel about my new Acton dress: pretty dang pleased!
.
it debuted last weekend in NJ for my stepsister's wedding 💜, and today it's debuting on my blog with all the sewing details - including how I used the lining to add a sewn-in bra (hint: it's surprisingly easy!). link is in my bio 🌟

Okay I say this a lot but for REAL this might be my favorite make ever. 😍 All she needs is a hem and then she'll be wedding-ready for next Saturday. 💃

pattern is the Acton dress by @inthefolds in a really dreamy and soft viscose linen noil from @blackbirdfabrics.

the month of august kicked off some major transitions for me, and in the process of trying to sort through my next steps I've been neglecting my sewing practice. when I'm facing the unknown, slowing down becomes extra hard and I want to pour all of my energy into figuring things out. I become a little frantic, a lot perfectionist, and feel guilty when I have time that's not being used "productively."
.
with that guilt it's reallllly hard for me to sew. so this is a gentle reminder to myself (and anybody else who needs to hear it) that creativity doesn't have to be relegated to the bottom of the to-do list, & feeding the spirit isn't something to be earned - it's a birth right. I am worthy of my creative practice and so are you. 💛

Top is the #ashtontop by @helens__closet , and skirt is #M7906.

fun fact: I made this top with leftover linen from a shirt I made my husband a couple of months ago (swipe right to see his). to my delight & his horror, we are now one step closer to becoming THAT matching couple. 😈
the pattern is an Ashton top cut in a size 4 with a 1" SBA. I made it in about a day (fast for me) with less than a yard of fabric. 🥳

The rumours are true: the Ashton top really is a great wardrobe staple, & the perfect piece to complement my horse tech M7906 🐴. Both pieces were their own sort of gamble, but I'm so so pleased with the results. Sewing is a lot more fun when you get a little adventurous! You can read more about them both in the blog post linked in my bio. ✨
