Round Neck Dress

I love to see her in this dress, it really makes me want to make more of round neck top/dress.

Now i know, if i want to stick on using my blackberry camera phone, i have to take pictures outside the house..

Repurposed mommy's t-shirt into skirt & dress

I'm having a productive days, manage to produce 2 skirts, 1 peasant top & 1 dress in three days, note: the peasant top & one other skirt still needs lil' bit finishing touch.

Inspired by many bloggers (i'm in blanking mode, i knew there're 3 pictures from other blogger that inspired me, but i only remember 2!! Geezz.. so i'll update my post later on about from which blog i was inspired haha, it's on my 'source of inspirations' list for sure.. hmmph).

I always forget to take picture of the 'before', so here it is, the almost like 'before' pictures:

And the other tshirt:

Repurposed them into:



















and this:


















The skirt is way too big for Jess, but the dress in a proper size for her now. I'm thinking to submit the skirt to crafterhours skirt week.

I made these stuffs for Jess..

Green Pillowcase Dress

Please refer to this link for pillow case dress tutorial, Freshly Picked Pillow Case Dress.

And this is the pocket tutorial link from Made by Rae's Pleated Pocket Tutorial.

I haven't got a time to take picture of Jess in this dress, but will do soon. It's still a bit too big for her.

JRoz's blue dress

I was amazed when i saw this super pretty Spring Ruffle Top (Made by Rae) at sew mama sew, the color combination is so gorgeous, i wish i had the eye to mix match colors & patterns like Rae. My sewing purpose is to make many pretty things for Jess, so what's come to mind was making the top as her dress, i might made it into a top for her, but she'll grow fast, she's only 9months old now, i just hope this dress will fit her as a top later when she's bigger.

I omitted the pockets and made a bit additional, i put another ruffle at the bottom dress and sew a crochet flower to match the dress. And.. because my only 9months experience as a mom told me it'll be hard to get her into the dress, i make an opening in the back of the dress, so after googled up i found this easy to follow tutorial of making a placket, here at rusty bobbin.

Itty Bitty Dress in Batik

More than a year ago, before i found out i was pregnant, i took a sewing lesson, it should be a 1 year lesson, but then i got pregnant and with so many execuses i stop coming to the class after 2 months, shame on me, i'm thinking to go back to class, hmm.. so i only know a little basic of sewing, i'm not even good at straight line sewing, result never neat & straight :D But i love to sew and to try new pattern, here is my first attempt in making Jess's clothes, found this Itty Bitty Baby Dress from Made by Rae, love it, but i don't know how to make piping, so i made a fake piping and.. it's the first time i made ruffle (sigh, took me a while to put them together, but now i'm getting better ha ha).

(right picture: my husband hold it for me ^^)
It's not neat at all, i know, but i'm happy with it. The fabric is Batik. Jess wore it on Indonesian Batik Day (left picture), October 2nd 2009, UNESCO made it official (yay!).
