Some of the latest

A great yoga/legging pattern I found for E...worked out great. I see lots more of these in the future-I can crank out a pair (sergerless at that) in probably 15-20min I'd say. Well-the V ones take a few longer...but the fold-over version is quite fast. I found my triple-stitch zigzag on the machine...how did I live without that?! Much stronger than a reg. zigzag- great for hemming without a twin needle and for attaching elastic and the like.






E's new robe...her last one was getting quite short! This one is nice and long and cozy- from a faux fur...I forget what they term the fabric. I made another one for a Christmas exchange with her penpal out of the same fabric but with funky cats on it.





I'm sure you all think I'm quite weird for always doing underwear posts...it seems quite normal for my sewing site! She was running low...many of hers were getting ridiculously small. These were from a RTW pair I'd made a pattern from awhile back...all sorts of different trimmings and finishes. We love the lace ones best- stretch lace is so comfy. Her fav. one fabric-wise is the ballerinas b/c of the Nutcracker :)





Lastly- the soccer dress for my niece Romi. Her Daddy is a soccer freak and it's fun to indulge those sorts of things :D If I had it to redo I'd take away the pocket binding...looked great before but once it was on I was 'eh' with it. Ah well-it really turned out quite cute and is my best Olivia yet!
