HI DARLINGS! I am hoping you spent a relaxing weekend with family. I am currently on a cruise ship with my honey so I am very grateful for the scheduling feature on WordPress, LOL!This MCCALL 7812 top is such a quick sew and I plan to make the dress version of it too but I decided first on the top because I had just under a yard of this great fabric I wanted to use it. When I wore my top with a bodycon black knit dress I got from FOREVER 21 it looked like a whole new dress.I can wear it with…

HI DARLINGS! Not too much time today as we are gearing up for the grand opening of our brick and mortar Melanated Fabrics store and creative center! There is so much to do and I am so excited. We sold out of spots for our grand opening weekend in 24 hours but we will be open to anyone who wants to visit the following Monday July 26th. I have not had a lot of time to sew but I did manage to make this really easy VOGUE 9101 dress using one of the DOUBLE BRUSHED KNIT PRINTS in MELANATED…

Mimi G! Still banging outfits after all these Pins!

HI DARLINGS! Okay so a big reason why we all sew is to be able to recreate designer looks for less so I just like many scour new collections released by my favorite designers and I save those looks to my PINTEREST boards. When I come across the fabric I can use to recreate something I buy it immediately because I have learned that if I go out specifically looking for something I am never going to find it, so I just wait and sure enough when I least expect it I will find something that will…

HI DARLINGS! I told you last week that I don’t necessarily do “New Year Resolutions” but what I do focus on are short term goals that I set at the start of the year without having to stress myself out trying to make entire life changes on Jan 1st.OLD NAVY has been a huge motivator for me because aside from getting the work done at the gym or at home I NEED to look and feel great while I am doing it and with OLD NAVY I always have the right look no matter what I am doing. Aside from the…

Ok this is not my @simplicity_creative_group Sew Your Decade submission but I did remember that hubby and I back in 2018 (?) did a show called “He Sewed She Sewed” and I made this vintage Vogue dress pattern, I can’t remember the pattern number sorry but it was a good one. I love these images so I thought I would share 🥰 I need one of my Vintage friends *cough cough @sewrena_ 😂 to tell me what pattern this was
