Sew So

OK,
Why recently I have decided to sew things I have no idea. It all started with me wanting to make curtains for our living room. Store bought curtains and a sewing machine later, I have made a checkbook cover and boxers for my husband!
The checkbook cover pattern I got from Heather Ross, Weekend Sewing.

It was a lot of fun to make and quick. Which satisfies my need for instant gratification.

The boxers I got from S.E.W Sew Everything Workshop by Diana Rupp.
These took longer to make and were a bit more frustrating due to my inexperience in sewing. However, I was able to finish them successfully and the hubs even wore them!

I will try to post pictures of these later.

Currently I am working on making a shirt from Sew Chic and Simple by Christine Haynes.

I will post pictures as I go through this process. I'm trying to be better about blogging. I know through out my sewing adventures other people's blogs and websites have been a huge help!

Hopefully, it won't be two months before my next post! See ya soon!
