Fashion; Butterick style

Good evening!...I'm sitting here relaxing, watching Seinfeld cracking up!...I swear the stuff they do and say is a mess!...I love the episode when someone talked Jerry into wearing a frilly "pirate" shirt; he was so embarrassed!...the reason why he was talked into it is because the person he was talking to was a "low talker".....he couldn't hear her so he just agreed to the shirt without knowing!...friggin' hilarious!
Now this post is about a dress I finished today; Butterick's Fast & Easy Fashion Express 1 Hour Pattern B5211....When I sewed this pattern before I made View B....this go 'round I made View C....When I first saw the views I didn't care for View C at all and I especially didn't like the sleeves....but let me tell you the sleeves are what I like most about my new dress....Sewing is funny like that sometimes....Like I can have a fabric that I think is just hideous...then one day I'll be looking for that fabric and I always seem to turn it into something nice....Sewing perk/quirk #515 amiright?....
I used a printed knit I snagged on one of my thrifting trips...its an "old lady" fabric which made me want it more...the print kinda looks like buttons!...the sewing perks/quirks just keep on happening!....I eliminated the pockets for no reason except that I felt the dress didn't need them....I was going to eliminate the facings too until I found thee cutest coordinating scrap in my stash; so I went ahead and added them....it gave the dress a sort of coolness around the collar area because I used a smooth cotton....the facings were going to be eliminated too because its just so hot around here ~ if I would have used the same fabric I used for the dress I know it would have felt like I had on some kind of scarf! oh hell NO.....not when its already an oven outside....just NO....but it worked out like always....
I did most of the work last night with only the hemming left this afternoon....I'm getting good at this patience thing with my knits....maybe because I seem to sew with them quite often nowadays....I have a considerable amount of knits in my stash; and thinking of getting more from GirlCharlee in the very near future....I've never bought any fabric from them; but I have definitely been stalking them lately....I'll probably do the Sew Indie thing too so Hot Patterns will hear from me soon I know....Lolita Patterns has an entire spread of patterns to use for the challenge; now that's awesome!....Maybe I'll cop something from both of 'em!...
Well I guess I'll share my pictures now....I didnt take too many this time because I was kinda in a rush; on my way to a babyshower.....I'm getting kinda tired too....the sun has zapped a bunch of my energy...I'm trying to refuel with a bottled water but it's not helping much....I might just nap for a minute....then I'll be up the rest of the night in my sewing room....not that that would be a bad thing....
Who's been making stuff?....Share your makes with me!....talk to you good people later....

Quilt-y hearts in Black

Afternoon everybody!...Hope all is well and the work week is swiftly progressing....I've been sewing a lot; but writing blog posts ehhhhh, not so much...but for this one I decided to share sooner than I was planning on...I'm skipping ahead again because this is the latest thing I've whipped up but certainly not the just the recent.....y'all know my makes will come back around though, they always do....I do have Instagram, and I share much more there than here, or anywhere for that matter....no particular reason except that its much easier to share because I use my phone....Look me up there if time permits for more of my sewing stuff!.....
Now this is another McCall's caller, in the form of a skirt....this is my second time making this pattern this week, the first one I made was View A (can be found on Instagram because I didn't photograph it with my camera; only my phone)....I seem to to be going in a row with this pattern because today I finished View B....for both skirts I used somewhat heavier knits so I'll still be able to wear them in the cooler months!...sewing works out like that sometimes because Lawd knows I didn't have that in mind when I whipped 'em up!...
I made them both from McCall's MP428 and I have three more views left...they're on the maxi skirt side so I may or may not get around to whipping those up anytime soon....on the other hand you can never have too many maxi skirts...and I so love the next one in line (View C); it is super cute although I kinda did that one free hand sometime last year I believe....Oh well, now I have a pattern to use and I wont have to wing it! See, sewing working out again....
My latest skirt is made from a super cute, quilt-y, more dense knit I got from where?...You guessed it: Hancock's Fabrics!...I LOVE THAT PLACE, and the fabric was already in my stash...okay I know y'all already know that so I can stop getting side tracked now right?...its just so easy for me!...LOL!...my new skirt only used one pattern piece; which I already had handy....I traced out two pattern pieces for the first skirt I made so that made the process even faster; View B used one of those pieces....I cut the size 14....I tried it on and I like the way it fits!....(I didn't feel like any alterations anyway).....Belle (my Blue dress form) modeled this one.....I guess she really didn't care for the first one I made because she didn't wear it well IMO...the Black one works for her I guess because it looked much better on her.....Pink Cookie was a bit too skinny this go 'round and couldn't fill it out....
I let it hang overnight because the fabric is kinda heavy and finished it off earlier today by serging all the raw edges....I didn't want to try and hem it because the quilt-y hearts are just too thick....I didn't feel like breaking 15 needles....and it turned out just awesome....I don't mind the serged edges because their so neat but I hemmed the first one though....I need to do more with my serger; I heard it can do some mean gathering and shirring....well, I'm getting off subject again so I'll share the photos now of my girl Belle looking good....
Does anyone else have Instagram?...share your handles! (mine is @MSKRS_STITCHES)

New Look and a Kimono

Good evening everybody!...I'm still up watching Modern Family and trying to figure out if I'm going to sew up something else before I go to bed.....a mini marathon comes on every Friday and I always try to tune in....those folks crack me up!....
I've been sewing a bit today; I made one of my little cousins a super pretty little Minnie Mouse halter top...I hope she can fit it; I just googled the size she wears (a 5-6 in little girls) and came up with the measurements....when I finished it I put it in a gift bag along with another little gift from me and didn't take naan picture! LOL!...Hopefully my cousin will take some pictures of her Babygirl and send them to me...if she does I will definitely share....(if my cousin doesn't mind)
Now this post is about what I just finished sewing for myself....I had been coveting a kimono cause I've seen them styled so damned pretty this season....I wanted in on some of the hotness so I had been keeping my eye out for a kimono pattern....Wouldn't you know that on my most recent trip to my favorite store (Hancock's Fabrics) I spotted New Look pattern #S0805....it has four views; two waist length and floor length....they're all so pretty and have ideas for all of em.....I whipped up View A, mainly because of the cool length and its sleeveless....Its still beyond hot around here so sleeves with the fabric I used wouldn't have fared well IMO....
I used an super pretty, floral print knit fabric I had in my stash....by now everybody should know where it came from! (smile)....it says *easy on the envelope and it actually was....I've been picking some good patterns lately in terms of how many pattern pieces I have to work with, the instructions, and ease of sewing...this one was "all that" because it sewed up nice; and has very good lines you know?....I feel like making more of these.....The view I made only had two pattern pieces!....You know that's my kinda pattern all day!....I altered the pattern juuuussstttt a little bit like I always do....I knew when I read the pattern instructions I was NOT going to add the bias tape....I just didn't think it would look good with the print like at all so I serged all the raw edges....and I was right, it looks much, much better and it doesn't clash with the pretty flowers....maybe next time I'll use a more plain fabric and it'll warrant some good ole' bias tape....after all I have plenty and I wouldn't mind another chance to use some of that vintage-y goodness....
Okay I'll share the pictures now 'cause I have laundry...the never-ending chore.....I'll talk to you good folks soon!...anybody whipped up anything they've had their eye on lately?...let me see! :)

Kimono!!!! Yeah baby! (in my Austin Powers voice)

New bonnet?...why yes, yes it is.....

Good evening y'all good people!...I'm sitting here watching Unsung; its about one of my favorite duos Kid and Play....they had they're ups and downs like everybody else I suppose but they are still best friends....IMO, that's all that counts....of course I'm sitting in my sewing room staring at all my fabric and always wondering what I'll whip up next...
This evening I wanted the instant gratification thing...I kept thinking and thinking and came up with the idea of finally making myself a hair bonnet...I may as well you know because every time I see one in the stores I swear up and down I'll make one...tonight I hooked one up......I don't know if I've ever shared but my hair has been chemical free for quite some time now which means it requires a little extra protection; such as a super comfy silk hair bonnet...all Natties (natural hair gals) know protecting our hair while sleeping is a must but the protection cannot be too tight or cumbersome to wear...my new hair bonnet is just right for that...matter fact I'm sitting here writing this post with it on right now because my hair has conditioner on it; today was wash day....I can already tell my hair is loving its new addition...
I free styled it; the aspect isn't that difficult to understand....I measured the elastic piece around my head, snipped it off and added it to my circles.....In my mind I envisioned having two circles to work with but the way I cut my damn pieces I ended up with four halves....Smh okay, okay no big deal 'cause I just connected the pieces to make the circles I needed to begin with....then I sewed up those circles and added the elastic opening....sewed the elastic together and closed the whole I used to flip my bonnet over....I kinda wanna make a few more because I have a few styles in mind....for instance if someone has longer hair the back of the bonnet will hang a bit longer you know?...and of course the fabric came from my spot.....(Hancock's Fabrics)...been in my stash for a good minute now...
My babygirl just put Golden Girls on for me (she knows me so well) and I kinda wanna make another one...I needed to had already gone to Sally's to get that mannequin head too so could take better pictures but I guess my own head will have to do for now....I may go grab one tomorrow; they're only maybe $8-$10....I priced them already and I actually didn't know they would just be at Sally's...sometimes the universe is on your side....okay, I'm rambling like always so I'll share my pictures now...I'm tired too, which may be a little evident in the pictures...forgive me, its my birthday month so I've been just up with the chickens while waiting on the stars.....talk to you good folks soon...
~~MsKRS~~

This is how I'm looking at this moment....relaxing in style with my pretty new bonnet....
(I may be a little biased wink-wink)...I'll probably make 4 more bonnets just because LOL!

Designer MsKRS and Simplicity

Good late evening everybody!...Yeah, I'm still up and messing around in my sewing room....I've been spending a lot, a lot of time in there lately....it keeps my mind off of what I've gone through and the pain of it all.....and you know what?...pain really does produce some good sh*t....I mean you're all in your feelings and somehow out of the pain something cool comes from it...its weird but true....not to say that you have to be jacked up to get good results but since this is life and all it may be a healthy way to look at the inevitable amiright?...
Around this time last night I was working on a new cross-body bag but I got bored and left off at the clasp and straps....I'll finish it soon though, I know I will.....I've been making so many little things lately too...I made my first pairs of undies the yesterday.... I made my daughter a pair and myself two out of some some laces I had in my stash....I felt a little weird about posting them though so I just opted to share that they came out pretty cute!!!!....I also made 8 hand towels; 4 for my GRANDdaughter and 4 for us.....super easy, instant gratification projects you know?...
Now this post is about my abundance of creativity which is always swirling around in my brain....
Y'all know I'm a lightweight designer right? (smile)...from time to time I like to just wing it without the tediousness of a too-many piece pattern...I had a outfit in mind that I wanted to make come alive and tonight I guess was the night...I started out trying to drape the knit I used into a top....the colors made me think of my stash.....I had these two funky fabrics I bought at least two years ago at Hancock's; online though....so I didn't get to see how they were but when they got here I remember looking at them for quite a while desperately trying to think of something, anything I would or could make with them.....well, I couldn't think of one damn thing so I neatly folded them up and added them to my stash.....until tonight....of course I had a pattern that fit the bill which I just got about maybe two or three weeks ago...I had the outfit in mind then when I grabbed it...
that pattern is Simplicity's S0432 View E, and it was only one pattern piece too!...I used it for the base of my project.....Whodathunkit?!...that's always a plus....I was originally going to whip up View C....
The fabric I used will speak for itself in terms of me not having a clue what it would become....its sheer as they come, has shiny hairs in stripes on it, and its Sunny yellow...I also have had the printed knit for quite some time too...I got a new shelf for my fabric last night and rediscovered it....it was a remnant that I thought was so cute; cost me a dollar I believe....Well, I'm rambling now like always because I like to talk hunty! LOLOLOL...any idea sewing been going on?...did you use a pattern or wing it like I did?...show me!

Whadaya think?...I friggin' love it...but I may be a little biased....(wink-wink)

Butterick beauty in the form of a sundress

Good afternoon everybody!...I've been toiling away in my sewing room lately; right on through the pain...I find that my sewing is good therapy....lets me move around just enough not to over-do it but just enough to get me going so I don't "stove up"....My Bigmama and other more mature relatives used to say that when it was hard for them to move; like if their body was sore....I'm getting better each day though....
I've made a bag set (super duper awesome bag set; I'll feature it soon), and a Red linen dress....but its quite plain so I wont debut that one until I wear it...it NEEDS accessories....
But my most recent make, my dress is pretty, print-y, and wild!....my kinda way you know?....I just grabbed this fabric the other day at my favorite place (Hancock's Fabrics) and its already a dress!...I hardly ever do that; I just mostly buy fabric for my stash....When I get ready to sew something I just take to my stash and choose from there....Chances are if I buy and use fabric right away its because I ran out mid-project and had no choice....but this go 'round there was no stash time for this piece....
I went thrifting the other day (the postop pain cut my visit quite short but it was worth it) and grabbed a few old school patterns....one of them was a "Quick" Butterick pattern by the number of 6314....I made View A and cut the largest size; the 10....I can only imagine that a sewing woman must have felt good about herself back in the day cause I do NOT wear a 10 in anything in real life..that's a small number in terms of clothing these days.....I chose View A; it only used 4 of the 5 pattern pieces to be sprung to life....the fifth piece is a ruffle used to whip up View B....I'll fix up one of those when the mood strikes....
I learned a new technique with this pattern...it called a "stay"....the pattern called for two; one for the front and one for the back both centered....How I describe it is like its a more reinforced stay stitch....the fabric anchored the gathers very well although I probably should've used a cotton instead of the same knit as my dress....it worked out though and I got the point....I may add them to other dresses because the technique is awesome!.....
Since I used yet another cool knit I calmed my anxiety of not being able to wait for anything and let it hang overnight to make sure the hem would be even....that's one of the few sewing rules I do follow as I don't really follow many.....I'm more of freestyle kinda gal you know?....I follow patterns but I usually end up doing things my own way....My arm and neck hole bindings could have been better though....I unpicked them three times; the left one twice and the right one once....it still ended up looking shi*ty IMO but I left it after all that....I was NOT about to get irritated with my super cool new dress....not at all, not today....
There's a special place in my soul for the old school patterns....They remind me of my self; straight forward while being clear and simple allowing super cool results!....This one is from the 80's, not sure of the exact year.....Well let me quit all this rambling and show off my new dress!....Who else has been burning the midnight oil sewing up stuff?....By all means show me! LOL
~~MsKRS~~

Walking Dead and Sewing

Well a might fine hello to all of you good people this evening!...I'm lucky to be making this post and still being able to create cool stuff with my machines!...
If you've been keeping up you know I've been having mad problems with my "monthly" and the only long term solution was surgery....Well I just had that surgery this past Tuesday and the entire experience was HORRIBLE....I bled out and almost passed away during surgery, then I get discharged and passed out from the lack of blood and have to go immediately back to the ER within 15 minutes of arriving home!....I didn't even get to go inside!....&*&^%$#@!#$%%^^!!!!!...then of course another damn transfusion with an iffy cat scan that may or may not have seen something else post surgery....I finally get home and the pain is insufferable....it took me all the way back; 20 years ago when I had my first surgery = a Cesarean section to deliver my daughter....the pressure and pain is horrendous....but I survived and I'm grateful.....(wipes forehead)....I still have pain and pressure but for the most part I'm coming on back to myself.....I even had enough energy to finish a little shrug I started the day before my surgery...I kinda wanted to have worked on something if I was to "go into the light".....
I started Butterick's Fast & Easy B5928 View A....I wanted to lengthen the pattern in the back but I wasn't quite sure how I would do it and my focus wasn't all that great that day either with the upcoming near death experience looming over my damn head....so I set out to just be in my sewing room messing with my stuff....Usually with the "very easy" or "easy" monikers its everything but; however this pattern told the truth about that....it only had 4 pattern pieces which you know is my kinda pattern; and only 5 if you wanted to add sleeves....the pattern called for fabrics like Crepe, wool blends, and Gabardine but I used a polka dot knit fabric from my stash....and you know it came from Hancock's Fabrics; my effin' FAVE....
I altered it a bit too....I didn't include the pleats because the fabric already has this super cool texture that's wrinkly and pleat-y already....and I did NOT line it either....its just plain old too hot around here.....this weekend our temps hit 108 degrees!....so there was a lot of serging I had to do to finish the raw edges...I love the way it turned out and I'm going to make another knit one and attempt to lengthen it too....My Babygirl has a pretty shrug that she bought ready to wear....maybe I'll do that to give myself a reason to use my super awesome Swedish tracing paper!  Yeah baby! (in my Austin Powers voice).....Pictures now 'cause I gotta rest for the evening....even though I feel like I want to start something else....but I don't want to over-do it you know?....Until I gain more strength then,
~~MsKRS~~

Color-happy romper on the short side

Hiya everybody!...I was trying to blog a little earlier but the power was out...it never fails though; when the temperatures rise over the 100 degree mark our power company has work to do restoring overworked, parched power lines...the power just kicked in a few minutes ago and I'm glad...it was quite stuffy in here with the outside temps at 108 degrees!!!!!
Anyway this post features a romper I made way last year when the "cold" started to come back...I made it towards the end of September....I had only worn it once and of course I was in one of those famous moods of mine and didn't feel like taking not one picture; so I didn't....but this past weekend I didn't mind it so much so I snapped a few....
I made McCall's 6083 again; this time View A....Now I've made this pattern a few times before with issues every other time with the pockets....when I made this one the pocket fairies were on my side because I didn't have to get Clover (my seam ripper; its the brand name but it fits)......I also lengthened the pattern because it was kinda two short for my taste nowadays....I added two inches and hemmed it with the regular 5/8 hem....I knew I had to have some of that fabric too...its like tie-dye, see-through lace, a buncha colors; it was just me all the way....and something told me I should make a super comfy romper with my trusty McCall's pattern....I have another romper/jumpsuit pattern but I haven't used it yet....Soon though I will....and I'm on the lookout for Simplicity's New Look pattern #6373....I need that.....
Well I guess I'll share and share with me too...who made something cute as eva' lately?...or last year like me lol?....Direct me to the makes!

Maxi dress and coming back to life....

Good morning to all my peeps although its almost over....I'm sitting here still basically trying to come back to life after my first visit to the hospital since I had my daughter 20 friggin' years ago!...Yep you heard it right, I had to be taken to the hospital in a damn ambulance Wednesday around this time....Let me explain....I have extremely heavy menstrual cycles and they have since become very bothersome....I lost so much blood this go 'round that I had to have a couple blood transfusions!!!!!....I was very weak and passing out; got a couple bruises and scared my family pretty good too...but I'm coming back slowly but surely....I almost feel like my old self again....I was in the hospital so long that I unhooked myself from all the gadgets and came home without them giving me a final check on my hemoglobin (which was a 6 when I was brought in and its supposed to be a 12 or more) but I knew I was on the way to feeling better because I didn't feel anything like I felt when I was wheeled in....I'll keep you posted as I go through the remainder of fixing the issue....
Anyways, I really wanted to show y'all my new dress....its McCall's Fashion Star pattern #M6790....it called for rayon fabric and the like but I used 100% cotton because I wanted to be able to wear it in cooler weather too....It took quite a bit of yardage too; almost 5 yards....I ran out of fabric although I could have sworn I had enough to begin with....I thought I had cut out all of the pieces until I started sewing it....I went to Hancock's and found the exact weave for the paisley fabric, which I got from Fabric Mart...I checked them first (Fabric Mart) for more of the same but they were out.....so I just finished it in a solid Black....I LOVE the end result; sewing is just awesome like that....
I cut the size 16 although I could have cut the 14 and it would have fit a little more snug....I though the cuffs were going to give me fits too but they were cool....I learned what a "roll line" was although I had already folded the fabric that way before I knew I had to...My Vogue Sewing book explained it thoroughly....
Well I just took my iron pill and am going to throw on some clothes for a afternoon BBQ with some of my friends....Piccies now and I promise to take better care of myself....I really didn't enjoy that hospital debacle....I really did NOT.....

Snuck in a sweater dress real quick, boots too.....

Good evening folks!...again I miss the entire boat for the MeMade thingy this year; although I wear my work every day.....I just don't have time to take the pictures!...*damn*...oh well, maybe next year...Anyway, 'tis post is about a dress that I thought I wasn't going to be able to whip up...its so warm and/or hot here like all the time so I didn't think I'd get to use the fabric until the "cold" comes back....reason being the dress I did get make afterall is sewn up with sweater knit....it finally rained pretty good around here so I hurried up and made one; although it was still on the warmer side.....I have a few sweater knits in my stash but I wanted to sew with the Black knit for some reason (its so super soft maybe?).....
Pattern came from my stash; Simplicity #8479 One Hour dress pattern....I got this pattern on one of my thrifting trips....I made view 2, size small....folks must have been a little more thick back in the day because I ain't been a "small" in quite some time!
(laughing a little bit through my pain;<~~~I'll explain later)....
I believe I'll be using this fabric again to make a pencil skirt too...I have enough left but next go 'round I'll be reversing the fabric....I loves me a two-sided fabric....Got a few ideas swirling about a two-textured fitted dress too....I found the fabric at my local Hancock's of course....it was kinda "unravel-y" but it was a breeze to work with....
Sewing bags is my first love for those that don't know.....this time I decided to show one off although all my bags and wallets are made by me.....the one I'm holding I self-drafted....Super easy to make and embellish.....I LOVE BAGS AND SHOES like seriously and I felt all right being able to just be myself with my stuff.....Sewing is tight like that.....pretty awesome I tell you what! (in my Hank Hill voice; I'm watching 'em right now).....My friends kept trying to take my stuff outta my bag and replace it with theirs...Maybe one day I'll go on a sewing spree and make 'em all one....Okay pictures now.....

A MsKRS Original clutch bag and boots....I was able to sneak one more wear outta my boots too.....

Pineapples!!!!!

How's everybody on this lovely Sunday evening?...I'm all right; just sitting here watching the tube and relaxing until I its time to go make a little change tomorrow....I've of course been sewing but pictures?...those are still on the "meh,might do" list....I just have not wanted to take any photos for some reason....oh well; today I felt a little different so I snapped a few...well my Babygirl did....I meant to participate in MeMade2015 but it felt so needless because every time I get a chance to get out of that uniform it must be something I made to get dressed in....I wear MeMade to bed, under my clothes for work, and when I get dressed period....so I guess I opted out well because I'm always in....I've sewn so many garments that I can always wear something that is ALL ME.....Today was no different....its been pretty warm around these parts so of course I'm reaching for cool, comfortable, and light....
McCall's M6083 to the rescue...now I've whipped this up twice before; one in a suiting fabric and the other in tablecloth fabric!...(check the blog for the posts).....but this go 'round its a lightweight printed knit, printed with green pineapples!!!!!....its been on my sewing table cut out for a minute but I finished it the day before yesterday (this past Friday)...I had the fabric in my stash but y'all know it came from Hancock's Fabrics...the fabric is so light it feels like pajamas...I always like when it works out like that....I was going to pair it with some Kelly green platform heels but decided to break the monotony and add a couple pops of red....Oh and the view is C with the sash just freestyled with the leftover fabric.....and I omitted the pockets....my serger was the star with this outfit too; well besides the fabric....At this point I'm having an allergy attack because I went to my girlfriend's house this afternoon to hang out and we were sitting outside....I guess I'll never learn; even though I took my daily allergy pill....they never work well enough but I guess something is better than nothing right?....Well pictures now while I kick back and get ready to start a new week....What y'all been sewing?  Anybody taken the MeMade2015 pledge?....direct me to your makes! (smiles)
