Strawberries and Cream Colorblock Top - Simplicity 1422 Button Up Shirt

Hi guys!

I have a sewing post for you today. I know, it's been ages since my last one but I really haven't had much sewing time in the past 6 months. So now that I'm finished with uni and don't have work until next year, I have abundant free time! I've finishes two projects this week, and I am stoked with both of them. Today I present to you Simplicity 1422, my Strawberries and Cream Shirt!

DIY Leather Bound Book/Journal

Hi guys,

Today I have a sewing post for you if you couldn't guess from the title :P

I bought some leather offcuts when I was in New York last year from Global Leathers. I was planning on making a leather version of the Sewaholic's Cordova Jacket but I didn't yet have a copy of the pattern and I probably would have mucked up the amount of leather to buy. So instead I just bought some little offcuts to practice sewing on leather before I move onto a full scale project, worth a lot of money. Now onto the post!

Hi guys,

Sorry it's been so long since my last sewing post! I need to try and stay on top of this more cause this skirt's been done for a week now. When i last left you here I had only done the overlocker stuff as my sewing machine was in the shop. I had attached the waistband to skirt and finished of all the edges, ready to add my zipper and hem.

My first sewing post! 

I'm excited because as much as I love painting my nails, sewing is my true love, I just need to find the time for it! Since my sewing machine went off to the doctor to be serviced (the foot control stopped obeying me and my machine was sewing all by itself) I had to start a project that could be mostly done on my overlocker (that's a serger, but in Australia it's an overlocker so that's what I'll be calling it).
