This dress is something I reeeeeeeeeeally like and would wear to every event had I not done that already. The pics of it aren't most excellent but you'll just have to live with it for now... :P

Now, I'm not quite sure wether I've posted pics of this dress or not but I bet if I did the pics weren't this good. So I'm posting reguardles. :P

This dress is something made completely for a show, and if I'm not forgetting something big it's never been worn in an event. I've used it for several portfolios and competition entries, though.

Here it is!

So today I finished a supercrazy three-weeks-of-sewing-twelve-hours-a-day-period of my life, one of many, by showing a J-rock-inspired collection at a fair for such things. It wasn't my designs, the whole thing was for my friends label but even though none of it was designed by me I put such an amount of work into it that I really became quite fond of the whole thingy. No pics of that, not yet atleast but I have something else.

First of all a front pic of the last dress I posted since I realized afterwards that (as someone noted) the pic doesn't really show the dress so here's another one.

Thinking about it the next one has kind of a similar shape to it but I' still posting it! :D I like this one quite a bit because it has a really nice feel and colour to it.

Soooooo it's been a few forevers since I posted anything. Now I thought it'd be nice to post a few things I've made in this time. I've even managed to snap some portfolio pics of some of those things so the pics should be a teeny bit better than the ones I usually have to post.

Enough with the nonsence, let's get to the good stuff! This is a little (black) brown dress. I made it for myself for family christmas meetings. Since I live so far away we do this whole tour-shebang-thingy with meeting all the relatives every christmas so I get to meet everyone. Anyway, that's what the dress was for... :D

I was going for a farely basic little black dress, only in brown since I look like ghost if I wear only black. Made of poly-blend satin, half-circle skirt and there's a straight lining under the pleating around the waist. Otherwise no lining.

Nothing much more to say about this one, except that it was a very easy dress to wear, even with all the playing on the floor due to having cousins that still play on the floor... :D Hope you like it! :)

The bag itself isn't that special. It's a normal shopping bag but the reason I like it is the skull... I stitched it with a normal, short sewing mashine stitch. So here's the bag... More under the cut...

Dad ordered a sweatsuit (size XXL) that was supposed to be of a loose model. When it arrived it looked like a skiing outfit... Meaning he could barely get it on. Not exactly XXL, might I say... He's too lazy to return anything so he gave it to me to re-do... In the before-pic the pants aren't the ones that I re-did because I already cut the pants before I remembered to take pics... But they looked pretty much like lhese ones... Except for the colour... So here's the before-pic...

I have an obsession about stitching patterns on clothes... :D So I went and bought some denim and made a skirt in wich I stitched tribals (or what ever graphics you want to call them) on both sides. First I drew them on with chalk and then just stitched along the lines. I've stitched a LOT of clothes like that but this is the first one with symmetric graphics... And it turned out suprisingly... Symmetrical... :D So here's the skirt...

And since I'm posting now I might as well post the skirt wich produced all the leftovers for the wallet and the bag... :D

So here's the skirt...

I posted a wallet here... A couple of days ago...? My consept of time is soooo screwed up right now for some reason... Anyway... I said I made it out of leftovers of a bag I made so now I'm posting the bag. Hope you like it... :)

It's made of this thick cotton-print and the bottom and lining are black teddy... Warm and comfy. Only the best for the crap I carry in my bag... :D

Here it is...

I made a skirt and had some left-over fabric so I decided to make a bag out of them... And then I still had some leftovers so I decided to make a wallet. The fabric is cotton print and this black water resistant fabric on the inside parts and finishing the edges... Here it is...

Closed all the way:

Yay!

I finally got my camera back in one piece! So now I can start posting again...

I'm gonna start with a bunch of tops I made. The thing is that I'm unimployed at the moment so I have a LOT of extra time on my hands. To keep myself busy I've been buying fabrics and making stuff. This isn't the last one I've made but I think it was last week... Maybe... I bought 1m of white jersey and 1m of black jersey(Same kind, unbelievebly comfy...), sat down for about 20 minutes to think how to make the most of them and then started sewing. This is what I got out of them...

Yay! I'm getting my camera soon so I can start posting all the lovely things I've made! I was gonna post some pics I woulda taken with my phone but then I lost the phone... I'm outta luck with electronic devices... BUT! My camera is working now. The only problem is that it's 400km:s away.. A bit hard to take pics with it now... But I should get it in the mail soon...

Blabbering on and on about a camera... :D The point was that I'm gonna be posting again moderately soon... I'll stop now... :D

So I finished a corset today. I've been working on and off on this for two weeks or so and now it's finished. I'm not completely happy with the way everything turned out but I still like it.

I had a before-pic but my computer ate it... It was a womens M bluose.

So here's how it turned out.

Yes, I'm posting twice in a row... I didn't feel comfortable about putting a dress like that and a hoodie like this in the same post... :D

Made it from a men's L hoodie...

I took a break from posting (not so much from sewing...) and then I broke my sewing mashine. BUT! I got it fixed yesterday and I just had to get my hands on this scarf I got from my great-aunt to make something out of. Everyone who knows me knows I make stuff out of... Well... Stuff... :)

The Scarf...

The Dress...

I know I post too much... BUT...

This was for an old show and I just found it yesterday when I was going through my closet. Thought I'd share it with you...

Originally I made it long with a slit and completely black and simple but since I have so many black dresses I could afford the sacrifice... :)

The Front...

And no, those aren't sleeves... My mannequin just almost matches with the colour of the dress...

I had a nice jacket but the problem was that I didn't like the way it looked on me. So I re-fitted it and made a pattern in the back.

I had a denim jacket (yes, denim again... I'm working my way through that pile...) that didn't fit properly so I desided to turn it into a skirt...
