Sew much math 🪡🧵🖥️ When I tell people I wish I had more time to sew, they usually look confused and assume I get to sew all day... But I don't. 🥲 In reality I spend most my working hours sitting at my computer. Drafting, grading, and selling sewing patterns involves so much math, rechecking the math, then rechecking again anytime you make a tiny change to the pattern 🙃 The fun parts of choosing a design and sewing it take the least amount of time! Would y'all like to see more behind the scenes of the designing and drafting?? Which parts are you curious about?? Let me know below 👇

Last weekend My husband and I went on a day date to a Rangers game ⚾ I couldn't find the red tank I wanted (guessing it's hidden somewhere in my daughter's room 🤣) so I quickly made a new red #wrenleypattern crop to wear before we left for the game. It's so quick to sew up and a summer staple for me. I love the crop and romper versions and wear them both all the time! I didn't get any great pictures of it at the game, but I'll be wearing it all summer! #madeformermaidspatterns
I LOVE the Goldie dress!!!
It is suuuch a beautiful silhouette and fit.
This version is the low back mini dress. Instead of hemming it, I did a lettuce hem. The entire dress (bindings, construction and hem) was completed on my @berninausa L890.
I’ve created 3 tutorials on my YouTube channel to help you make this dress in 30min or less.
Are you living in tank dresses this summer with me???

Who else thinks they need to sew an entire new wardrobe for vacation?!? 🙋♀️🤣
My husband and I are celebrating our 15th wedding anniversary with a trip in a few weeks. We are taking a backpack only and the airline has a weight limit... So I was on the hunt for lightweight, wrinkle resistant fabrics 🤞 I was pleasantly surprised with what I ended up finding, usually my Joann has very a sad and tiny apparel section! However I've now waited so long to start, I don't really have time to order fabric from my usual indie stores. 😫🥲
I ended up with 23 yards of fabric, 4 yards of lining, 8 buttons, 8 zippers, and 12 serger threads.... I did buy more fabric than I needed bc I'm starting from scratch (without even a pattern😬) on most things I want to make, so I'm going to need to muslin it all!
What do you think I spent?? Guess below ✈️
PS
The Joann worker asked if I was putting on a production with all the fabric.... Nope just vacation makes 🤣🤣🤣
