Recycled Curtain Ruffle Strap Dress Description I just couldn’t resist turning this cute curtain fabric that I picked up at a local op shop into this summery little number! Other than the easy-creasing factor, the material was great to work with, probably the easiest I have sewn with so far. This is based on one of my initial inspiration to buy a sewing machine, a girly little dress with ruffles on the straps. I have added a pdf tutorial on how to make the custom pattern block, it is uploaded as a pattern file. Please feel free to leave feedback! UPDATE The instructions on how to put the pieces together are now up! Material Notes 100% Cotton Categories For Women Garment Type Dress

How to Crochet -- Woven stitch The crocheted Woven Stitch is one of my favorites to use for baby blankets and afghans since it is easy to stitch, using only chain stitch and single crochet, and it works up quickly into a nice single thickness lightweight blanket. It can be worked in one solid color, in a variegated yarn or in stripes and each combination looks great. Here's how it works: Start out with a beginning chain in multiples of 3, plus 2 extra. This is what your piece will look like after finishing the first row. Work 2 chain stitches and turn your work. This is what your piece will look like after the second row is complete. Continue as before with chain 2, turn, single crochet into first chain space. This is a side view of the sample piece showing that there is not much in the way of texture or layering with this stitch. This is a close-up of the sample piece showing how the stitch gives the appearance of being woven. Click here to return to HookedOnNeedles.com

Sewing Like Mad: Skirt Week 2013 - How to draft a custom fit skirt pattern with a wide waistband. Okay, ooooookay first of all YAY for Skirt Week 2013. If you have no idea what I am talking about I would suggest you check out THIS post at Crafterhours because that explains it all. But come right back because you don't want to miss this post, okay! A year ago I participated in Skirt Week for the first time and I got the surprise of a lifetime. First of all I got pretty surprised that one of my skirts was chosen from the Flickr group to actual go to voting. Then I got not-so-surprised when my skirt got like the lowest number of votes (yeah, thanks for nothing guys ;-))) BUT I guess the judges felt sorry for me or something because (and now comes the surprise of a lifetime-part) then I won Judge's Choice for THIS a-line skirt. And now I almost feel like I won something again by being invited back to do a tutorial to (hopefully) inspire others to make skirts. The skirt I am going to show you how to make is a (kind of) half circle skirt with a wide fitted waistband.
Sewing 101: Pattern Size and Body Measurements Part 2: What Pattern Size are You? One of the reasons that people sew is to get a garment that fits perfectly. People are not necessarily created equal – they come in all shapes, heights and sizes. Like ready-to-wear clothes, sewing patterns come several different sizes to fit all of these different bodies. Pattern sizes are not the same as retail clothing sizes Ever try on similar skirts from two different brands, both marked with the same size, only to find that they fit differently? Patterns have consistent, standardized sizing from pattern brand to pattern brand. Since you can’t try a pattern on, getting the correct size is the #1 priority. Body Measurements Getting the correct body measurements is key, so it’s important to take your body measurements carefully. When taking your body measurements, wear the undergarments you normally wear for the most accurate results. Getting Your Starting Pattern Size Let’s Talk About Ease What is ease, anyway?

How to Make a Simple Bow These little bows are so simple and fun-- I make them all the time. They are so versatile-- you can wear them as shoe clips, hair clips, broaches, whatever you want! I've also attached them to headbands. (Photo from last year when I was obsessively watching Mad Men and attempting the bee hive hairdo. Looks a bit like Marge Simpson if you ask me. ;) ) How to Make Simple Bows: Step 1: First you need to cut a rectangle of fabric with a little sliver of fabric to set off to the side. Step 2: Next you need to fold the fabric onto itself, lengthwise. Step 3: Now fold the fabric in the other way to to middle. Step 4: Stitch those bad boys together. Step 5: With a curling iron, straightener, or iron, press the sides of the little sliver of fabric together. Step 6: All done!
DIY: T-Shirt Flower Dress Technically this isn't a new DIY since this dress was one of the first things that I ever posted on this little blog when my Nikon and I were just getting to know each other, (;)) but I never put up the entire tutorial! In the beginning of my blog days, I used to post all of my tutorials over on Cut Out + Keep, one of my favorite crafting communities. (By the way, Cut Out + Keep just celebrated their 100,000th member! Holy cow that's a lot of crafters. Congrats to Cat and the rest of the team. :)) This dress is special to me in many ways because it was my first big blog project, I wore it in a trashion show, and holy Moses it took me forever to make. I don't even want to know how much thread I used on this dress.
