What a COMBO!!!
I am still a newbie poster :) I wanted a new garment for one of my company's workshop, so I made yet another B5147. The fabric is a stretch denim with sparkle red that was in my stash already. However; the hat is a oop B3664. I left the top off so I can wear my natural hair out or twists. The clutch handbag was made from scratch and is lined with two pockets. I was so happy to find this on youtube how to line a pouch tutorial. Also, another great tutorial is how-to-make-a-lined-zipper-pouch-tutorial/. I really love the embroidery that I had to play with to get the letters to embroider correctly. Cardigan is from K. Jordan K. Jordan Cardigan. Thanks to my friend Corlette in NY who supplied me with the lining fabric.

What a great little clutch! I love the lining. Is it ticking? It looks great.
ReplyDeleteThanks Carol! Yes it is ticking :)
DeleteI like this combo! I wonder if I can get away with a denim sheath at work. I want one bad.

What a way to come back to blogging! Great dress!! And I would live to see more of the handbag. The inside details are perfect. You're going to look great at your company's venue.
ReplyDeleteThank you Kisha :) Kisha I have so much in my head to do but to get it done is the question, LOL I have a bag in my UFO basket waiting to be finished...Lord help me :)
ReplyDeleteThis outfit looks great - thanks for posting the links to the bag tutorials...hang in there with the blogging, it does take time to get it up and running, but well worth it...J
ReplyDeleteThanks Judith :) Now I am trying to revive my sewing mojo. I attempted a few times to find some fabric in my stash but I end up with nothing in my hand...SMH :)
DeleteI agree with Judith, everything looks great - the bag is fantastic. Don't be hard on yourself about blog technique - everyone starts somewhere - just keep going with making things and enjoy the process. Maybe the stash is telling you to go and get something the will rev up the mojo.
ReplyDeleteThanks SarahLizSewStyle for stopping by :)
DeleteThis is a very nice ensemble. It is so good to find another person who is enjoying their embroidery machine.
ReplyDeleteThanks Lisa! Indeed I enjoy my embroidery machine. I am hoping to get my dream one very soon :)
