On The Cutting Table - Burda 05.12 110 B

This top ...

Nice to finally to be able to say "on the cutting table" as opposed to thinking I should say "on the effin pain in the a*se coffee table" Plus I feel all grown up and experienced saying "cutting table".

Doubt my "interpretation" will look anything like the above image, being my first top, but we all love a tryer. Can't believe am attempting Burda's notoriously scary magazine instructions to construct my first top. That being said it looks like I should be okay if am armed with some additional resources. Am facing doing an FBA and sewing a top on the bias with trepidation but it is high time that I put this at the back of my mind and get started.

On the plus side I will be attending a sewing session tomorrow which will be hosted by my former tutor so I will be looking forward to that. Am sure she will help if I get stuck. I am just so damn excited that am going to be with like minded people, so who knows peeps I may be knocking up garments left right and centre as I have signed up to about five three hour sessions.

I will be doing muslins/toiles for all as am never happy with the fit of my skirts let alone tops.

Before I disappear, I have been posting the odd, cute beautiful or sassy creation I have come across on my Sassy Sewing Bees facebook page. Head over there if you are like me and love looking at other peoples creations but haven't got time to read all the blurb. Instant eye candy. Oh and "like" the page while you are there.

Cheeky aren't I?

Sewing Bee Alert

 Hi Gorgeous sewers.
 I have set up a facebook page called Sassy Sewing Bees as a onestop area where you can share your sewing projects with me by posting on the page and look at my sorry excuses, so "like" away.

I quite like the idea I can post the odd comment about something am working on, a one liner which you can't do on a blog without having to feel the need to write a few paragraphs to create a post. In addition to you posting, I will also post any cool creations/articles I come across.

Have you been watching the Great British Sewing Bee? I love how it is geared to home sewers you can relate to them more and I find it so entertaining. There are only four episodes and am desperately hoping that they have had enough viewers to do another season as the last one is on Tuesday ahhhhh.

I have also posted episodes two and three on on my new facebook page (can't find ep 1)  so that's one reason you should head over there.



Until Next Time

Pinty Pix - April 2013

It's Blog Pinty Pix time. Let's see what's been floating up my Pinterest stream eh.

Bangin Dress

Love the fabric and dress.  Not something I could get away with, not with my girls, no sirree, they would be screaming for mercy.

Some women put weight on their hips if they indulge in one too many takeaways, I put it on the girls. That being said if mine were similar to the models, I still wouldn't have the guts to wear it or if I did you wouldn't be seeing as much flesh.


Stunning Swimwear

 

Nuff said. I would so love this.


Cool Tee



Humour

Yes you do girlfriend . . . The next pic has the "F" word so turn away now if you will be offended.

Made me giggle.

Until Next Time
