So fun!

Cute, quick stocking!

Ooh I love the cuff! I made stockings a few years ago using essentially the same process (except creating a tiny "quilt-top" for the front of it first), and it was definitely so magical to turn it all around! My favorite holiday tradition (though established as an adult) is going to see Christmas lights, but because I am NOT a creature of habit, we try to find somewhere new every year

It looks great! Curious to hear what happens with your machine. Mine (of the same machine) fully died spectacularly in the middle of a quilt and I just used that as an excuse to buy a fancier one lol

look at you just French-seaming like a pro!

Needs some oil

My (main) tree skirt is pretty but way too big for my skinny tree/space and i have to bunch it up. I've been waffling for years over whether to crochet or quilt a custom-sized one (and so obviously have done neither)

I support the no-batting decision! Even at that size, I think if you'd added batting I think you would have had to quilt it at least little bit and that would have changed the vibe! Completely agree though that making gives you the opportunity to assess "made" things and over time figure out out how to make exactly what you want!

I cohabitate with someone who restricts Christmas to after Thanksgiving and it is such a bummer! I have several friends who unabashedly transition straight from Halloween to Christmas and I am here for it.

I have been riding pretty high on the Christmas quilt and matching stockings I made like 5 years ago, but this year I do have a mini project to make a Santa hat for my new nephew. I made one for his sister for her first Christmas but tragically his head is dramatically larger than hers was at the same age, so sharing is not an option.

for the big long stitches you can make a French seam. Or if you use a zigzag stitch, use an overlock foot (that is a presser foot with a raised edge in the middle where you can only do a zigzag stitch. You place that center exactly along the raw edge of your fabric, so that the foot folds the fabric over a very small part. This gives you very nice straight edges) . Because the Singer Heavy Duty does not have a fake overlock stitch, it is useful to first do your straight stitches and then your zigzag stitch while, for example, letting the edge of your sewing machine foot run on the sewn line so that you have the same distance everywhere. This way you get the fake overlock stitch and if you use such a foot you don't get an ugly edge finish. You place that center exactly along the raw edge of your fabric, so that the foot folds the fabric over a very small part. This gives you very nice straight edges)

Thank you for sharing your cat with us. 😊❤ My cats were highly trained pattern weights for many years! 😁😺

Yes, sewist and crafter too. I have a dress in a similar pattern that I may revisit now after watching your inspiring video. I like it but the pattern needs tweaks! Yours looks lovely on you. 😊 Current project - making a version of the Lengburg bra dress as a supportive winter under layer. I’m one of those full-figured, modern-bra-hating women! 😂 Thank you for sharing your lovely cat with us too. 😊❤😼

The dress turned out really well!😃 we are heading into Summer here in Australia so I’m currently sewing some linen tops 🌼

Nice dress, elle vous va bien 👍🏻

I love it so much. I’m so happy I can be the first one to like and the first one to comment I love It’s so much you are so beautiful and keep living like how you do and keep making dresses. Those are so cute. You’re good at that!

That dress is so cute! You did an amazing job❤

You are so inspiring! I think I might have to give making my own clothes a try! Sometimes I am way too picky to buy clothes in stores😂 Your help companion is so cute🥰
