Welcome graphic

Hi, welcome to my site devoted to designing fashion for myself and hopefully other people! I've just started sewing and hope to teach myself as much as I can before taking classes and developing my skills. I'll post pictures and step by step directions for different projects. Sometimes the task of making a simple skirt seems daunting, but I have conquered the patterns and so can you! Don't get discouraged. A wise seamstress told me "If you can read, you can sew," I'm going to keep doing just that... reading and sewing! Have fun and good luck on all your future sewing projects.

I've been working really hard on some of my own projects. I am currently a first year student at a liberal arts college and plan to double major in English and Art. I will post my own sewing experiences up here as well as my final products. Hopefully I'll be able to run my own business, design my own clothes and couture gowns. Wish me luck, until then comments and questions are welcome!

Batiks for Spring

Beautiful batik triple flounce skirt. Adorning satin ribbon, zip closure.

This was my first project with my new sewing machine. It turned out beautifully and I am very excited to wear this when spring finally arrives!

Comments, questions, and suggestions are welcome! I appreciate all the feed back!
