This is absolutely amazing, I love that you can take something so ordinary and transform it! You've inspired me and now I think I will go learn how to sew! Thanks for sharing x
Thanks to my Pinterest addiction I found your site!!! You are creating the fun pieces that I dream of and collect fabulous lace and ribbon for...I just never quite get to a creation I would wear out of the house. HA!! Now it all seems so perfectly simple - thank you for your time and for posting!! :D
How do you get a shirt to the long enough to be worn as a dress? I love your work, and it's probably a stupid question, but I don't understand how you do it.
Hi Laura, With your knowledge in seamstressing (?) would you mind considering a blog post on how to handle backless tops when the user has to wear a bra? I've inserted bra cups into dresses that I couldn't fill out on my own to eliminate the need for strapless bras but your recent post about the Bailey 44 shirt would stump me as I need bra coverage and don't like it to show in the back. Thank you! Loren Ellison
Hello, I wanted to know if you ever took sowing classes? I've always been very curios and love making beautiful things out of ordinary stuff. I find what you do very inspiring. My grandma sowed most of her life and I regret not making the time to learn from her. I actually was even considering fashion design as a career, until someone told me it was too much of a competitive field and didn't think I could make it. I believed that person, and now I want to make up for the lost time and maybe go into some classes or just practice on my own. What do you recommend I do? I understand you have to have the time, patience and passion for it. But every time I see blogs like this something inside me moves and I can't help my talent of being a creative person and I think is about time I dream again.

Well, I am glad I found your blog through Pinterest! I am a crafty-wanna-be ;) and I recently bought a sewing machine but have no clue how to use it. I've been watching You Tube tutorials and now I want to get started even faster with your XL shirt revamp! Thanks!
Just a quick message to let you know I nominated you for a Liebster Award! Link here for info: https://girlwithspecks.wordpress.com/2013/03/02/liebster-award-nomination xoxo GirlWithSpecks
I have seen some of your pictures (I didn't know these were yours) and I have always been thinking who is that crazy woman with that eye of seeing so much beautiful things in almost nothing. As your blog header says: Trash to Couture!
Love your designs and keep up that great work you are doing!
You are VERY gifted. I love everything that you have created and posted onto this blog! Very inspiring. Thank you for sharing!

ReplyDeleteI am really trying to get in to sewing. I have a machine, what do you feel are the other essential tools for a beginner sewing kit?
