I've been sewing lately! ;u;!



Hello everyone! I wanted to make a quick post to show you guys what I've been up to!


Remember these fabrics? I was so excited to start playing around with them x3! I also have really been going salopette crazy lately~ so my first instinct was to make one of them! Here's how it turned out~


It was surprisingly easy to make! first, go about making normal bloomers (there are tutorials over on EGL if you need to know how!) but instead of elastic at the bottoms and top, gather them to a waist band/ thigh bands (lol idk;;). After you have those made, cut a rectangle of fabric and two long strips for the top and sleeves, and decorate however you want ;u;. then you just attach them! easy easy :D!

Anyways ,here it is worn~
blurry yuck x~x sorry!

Secondly, I really wanted to use that polka dot fabric for clothes. I was thinking about making bloomers or pumpkin pants out of them at first, but then I decided I wanted a fitted mini skirt. Unfortunately, I realized I was out of black thread only after I had it cut out, so you can see most of my stitching errors x~x (it really bothers me;;;)


Worn~

What do you guys think? :D?

thanks for taking a look~☆ミ
