A crafty little atelier in a grey city

Bubblicious + Happy Birthday Ba-chan!!!


The first day of school went relatively smoothly. “I’m nervous!” K exclaimed as we headed to the playground, but as soon as she saw her friends, she was back in her zone. The only hiccup happened when I went to pick her up after school. Somehow she’d accidentally followed the wrong class line and couldn’t be found for several minutes, so a moment of panic was had by all.

But the day was “totally good”, she said, and she seems excited for tomorrow. She consented to wearing the bubble dress (oh so pink), and even posed with some glittery purses.

Aaaand, today is my mom’s birthday – safe traveling, Mama! Hope you’re enjoying your whirlwind trip through Japan!

I used pattern A from the same book as this dress and this dress. I originally planned to use a burgundy linen blend, but didn’t have enough fabric. I had oodles of this polka-dotted print, though, and I love how it came out.

I’ve been sewing a lot and have noticed that now I’ve been sewing a lot and have noticed that nowadays I sew the way that my husband buys clothes: the same things in different colors. Once I find a pattern that I like, I’ve developed a habit of whipping out multiples. I’ve made a bunch of these simple woven tees (1st 2 images) and about half a dozen knit batwing tops (3rd image — a turquoise one is in the wash right now). I’m now working on several leggings. Soon, though, I’m going to move onto spring dresses! Excited!! #isew #handmadewardeobe
