Sneak Peak for my first Project!



"Marilla! Look at the puffs!" Not just puffed sleeves, but petal sleeves. I LOVE how they look in my dress! what a cliffhanger...




Fabric swatches. This jacquard fabric is mustard yellow and olive green. I was a little worried in the beginning that it looked liked curtains-- my husband definitley agrees with that assessment. The fabric is 59% polyester, 24% cotton, and 17% silk, and bought from fabric.com.

  1. Hello! I just found your blog via cjane and I'm so glad I did! Your stuff is beautiful! I'm so excited to follow you!

    I've started sewing dresses for myself (with patterns, definitely not brave enough to do one without one!) Often, I need to add a sleeve to an existing pattern to make it work. I am loving the petal sleeves on all the dresses!!!

    Is there any way you would do a tutorial on petal sleeves in the future? I would happily buy a pattern from you if one were available too!
