Using the coverstitch machine to get the double strait stitch, the finishes are just like store bought clothing. </b><br />

<b><br /></b>
<b> Last weekend there was a festival in our little town. I took my youngest daughter and the camera for a tour around the square. I've wanted to take some photos of local shops for quite some time now.. and I just don't usually have the camera with me, when I have had the chance to look around. I took this opportunity to practice some photography. My hubby gave me his camera when he updated to new equipment and I am very slowly picking up how to use it. I've used it in auto mode for some time now, but I'm trying out more of the functions now. Its nothing spectacular but I'm learning and I have fun! I've recently been playing with the white balance. </b><br />

<b>First stop was the Pickett Fence (an antiques and more place)</b><br />

I know that my first style of maternity scrunch top was wildly popular, but, I have discontinued making them for the time being. In it's place is a very similar top. Practically the same style, but instead of ties in the sides, there is elastic creating the scrunchy look. The reason for the switch is the time difference that it takes to create the tops. The ones with the ties were really killing my productivity time. </b><br />

<b>I also want to make a statement about the top with the ties vs the top without them. It seems that some people have gotten the idea that the top with ties had adjustable fullness just because the ties could make it longer. That isn't exactly true. The ties may have shortened or lengthened the top, but they were not able to take fullness out of the top. </b><br />

Last Summer, my sister gave me a woman's shirt size Medium. No one wanted to wear the shirt, but I loved the print! As with any t-shirt I'm given. I look for the possibilities. If its super stretchy and keeps it's shape, I keep it for making panties. (its fun, you should try it!) If its a rib knit type shirt, I keep it for neck, arm, and leg bands. But this one was just pretty, and it was neither stretchy, nor a rib knit.. I wanted to repurpose for my youngest. There's usually enough fabric in a woman's shirt to make a size 2 or 3T shirt. This one was kind of short and I had a difficult time getting all I needed for it. I even had to use a pretty elastic for the neck finish, because I had no decent length of fabric for a neckband. One thing I love about cutting a shirt down in size is that you can keep the original hems! Keep the hem at the bottom of the shirt, and keep the sleeve hems! <br />
<br />Taking a shirt from her wardrobe, I used it as a pattern. (I should take photos of this process sometime and share!) Here are my results :-)<br />

<b> I just put the last touch on this little swimsuit for my 2 year old. I
had this mostly finished from last summer, when I tried to get it to
fit my then 3 year old... but it was too small. I had only this small
remnant from a suit my mom made me when I was 11 years old. That was 17
years ago people. The fabric is still in perfect condition. I have always
loved this fabric, & I spent like four years searching for the
perfect orange to match. This still isn't as perfect as I wanted, but I
can't wait forever!! Indoor photos because I finished it at night. I'll get outdoor photos another time. </b><br />

And I'm just blogging for no reason in particular, other than maybe I felt like it :-) Thought I'd show what I'm up to. I'm usually up to something, but I don't always take the time to post. Not that there's a whole lot going on right now... I do need to start on some custom orders, maybe I'll get some of them cut out this evening. I want to be pattern designing, but I've working on a few personal projects and baby shower gifts. The baby shower gifts are burp cloths and blankets, my usual. I don't have photos of them yet though.. I do have a picture or two of the pajamas though. I cut these out before Christmas and wanted to have them finished by then. But guess what? That didn't quite happen... I started matching PJ's for my girls, and then cut a duplicate pair of 4's for a friend. Said friend has no idea about them, but her sister does :-) </b><br />

<b>Other things I'm up to, are just being a mom to two girls. Working
with my 4 year old in the schooling that she's learning, which is some
pretty basic preschool stuff. I'm actually taking a little step back
after realizing that I was pushing too much, too quick. Taking things at
a slow and fun pace is what's needed at the moment. I need to be
reading to her more, and I need to print out some basic shapes and lines
to trace. I skipped over these and went strait to tracing her numbers
and letters because I thought surely shapes and lines were too easy. We
went through the whole alphabet and she did well with memory, and
tracing. But I'm finding that its just going to take time for her little
brain to develop all the skills she's going to need. I've observed her
at different ages and watched how her brain could do new things as she
grew. For example, at one point when she was a toddler, she couldn't
figure out that ball that has all the shapes to fit into the holes, and
then one day, CLICK! And she was able to do it. Same for puzzles. I knew
they'd been difficult for her before age 4, so even when someone would
give us puzzles, I would put them away because I knew that they were
only frustrating for her. Then one day last week, she asked to pull
those puzzles out of the unopened boxes, and she did them, all by
herself. They weren't difficult puzzles, but being the mom, I knew her little brain had grown to be able to do new things :-) </b><br />

But it will be fun, because after re-watching the video tutorials, many of my questions have been answered and I feel like I've got a much better grasp on what I need to do. At least for this next part :-) Here's a snap shot of lessons from my last day or two... </b><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><b>Anyway, </b></span><br />
<b> this tutorial and pattern was inspired by a friend. She asked if I could help her with a project. She wouldn't tell me what the project was, but I agreed to it just the same so we could hang out and our kids could visit too. The project turned out to be panties! That didn't weird me out though, I'd made panties before lol! The reason she thought of me for this project was because the panties were made out of a nylon lycra fabric. And she knew I had plenty of that on hand :-) It took a little work and some patience, to make a pattern from the existing panties. So not totally designed by me, just copied a ready to wear garment. I think they could use a rise in the waist and in the front leg cut. I may alter those later and make into multiple sizes. I've not had practice at grading panties into multiple sizes. Though I do have plans to study! </b><br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Sometimes to capture a curve on an existing garment, you need to take a strait pin and poke holes through the fabric and onto paper, creating a connect the dots line for you to follow later. </b></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<b> With the pattern made, we set to cutting! I momentarily forgot that my curves had to be perfectly smooth because edges around the leg and waist were not going to be finished! </b></div>

<b> I opened up one of the side seams and added pretty elastic. This type of decorative elastic is called picot elastic. I found this lot on Ebay. This same seller I found on Etsy, and the last time I ordered from her, she sent a discount coupon that was good on her website.

<b>Running some giveaways on my <a href="https://www.facebook.com/Creations-by-Savannah-121217251295763/">Facebook Page</a> this week. I had 2 women's tops that had imperfections in them and because of that I would not sell them. They are free for drawing!! And the shipping is free too! </b><br />

Savannah is playing with Adobe Illustrator!! :-) This is me learning and playing with text, shapes, patterns and colors today. You can't tell that I like hot pink and turquoise can you??? Its been fun. I've made a page full of notes and there's sooo much more to learn! </b><br />
<br />
<b> Since <a href="http://patternworkshop.com/?affcode=31658_za6ppvfy">Pattern Workshop</a> was moved to a new site, I've been inspired to re-watch the videos and practice. I've not done a whole lot of learning on the digital side of pattern making this winter. I have done a lot of drawing patterns and testing them myself. Anyway, I just wanted to show off my exported jpeg with you :-) </b><br />
<br />
<b>*and about the amazing text thing.. you'd have to watch the videos ;-) </b><br />

<b> I've just completed and mailed off a nursing tank, to a customer. I took a few detailed photos of the top, including photos of it displayed on the dress form, with the inside facing out. I won't be typing much today, as I had a needle go through the tip of my index finger, on my left hand, and its rather sore. But enjoy the pictures! This is a design that you've seen here since Spring of 2012, but these are the first photos I've shared showing the inside of the suit.</b><br />

<b>Here is where I turned it inside out. Its difficult to tell that its inside out because the print goes all the way through the fabric. That's one way to tell you've got a good fabric :-) Look closely at the neckline and arm holes. You can see some color difference around those areas. The black half circle you see at the center chest, is my hair tie. I placed it there so you all could see where the panel stops. Its designed so that if its done right, the under panel will come up over the chest and be snug enough to stay in place. </b><br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>The fist try seemed cute, but not for a nursing top. The over layer, being sewn into the side seam, kept the fabric too restricted for nursing. Pardon the rough edges on this one. I didn't take the time to finish the armholes and neckline when the photos were taken. </b></div>

<b>This time the over layer went all the way around the body. It was cut fuller and was much easier to lift up if someone desired to wear it as a nursing top.

This is the worst case I've had of falling off the wagon with my blog yet! Its been terribly lacking of late and its all my fault! I've tried to be steady and have a few posts every month, but this last 2 months I've failed.. or not even tried. September and October were full of nothingness on the blog :-( I've been out of it! I'm not like most bloggers who pour everything they have into their blog. But I've definitely tried to be somewhat consistent this year. Epic fail! </b><br />
<b><br /></b>
<b><span style="font-size: large;">T</span>hings that have happened since I left my blogging world are, that I've started in the journey of homeschooling. Just getting started of course, and I've lots to learn! But with my Mother having schooled 9 at home, and my Mother-in-love having schooled 7 at home, I have awesome role models to look to :-) My oldest daughter just turned 4 years old! She's such a big, beautiful, sweet girl. Granted she picks on her little sister a good deal, but I do find myself saying "thank you for your help" to her more and more often :-) </b><br />

<b><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: small;"> Just decided that I'll soon post a blog titled 'September' and post photos that were taken that month.

<b> As I waited for my family and the wedding party to arrive in town for the rehersal dinner, I stopped by dance class and took a couple pictures. I joined this dance class when I was 16 (2004), and continued going until I met my husband in late 2009 and he introduced me to swing. Which is an amazing amount of fun!!! Now with children and work we don't have much time for dance of any kind :-( We still visit the ECD group from time to time, especially when they have a ball or party :-) ECD stands for English Country Dancing. Traditional dance like you would see in a Jane Austin film. I also loved Contra when I got the chance! Anyway, here's the photos I took that evening... </b></div>

The day before the shower, I asked my Mom if we could do something she'd done at a shower long ago. There was this picture that I remembered seeing. It had been taken at a shower which Mom had hosted, like 25 years ago. The object of the game was to scoop as many cotton balls out of a pot and onto your head as was possible (in 30 seconds), while blind folded. The blind fold was what made the game. It had a large set of eyes on it that made the wearer look hilarious! I wanted to recreate the game they were playing in that picture! However the picture was only in my memory. We searched Mom's photo books and did not find it. It must be one of my Aunties who has the picture in my memory. Mom and I recreated the mask by memory and we all had fun playing the game at the shower!!</b><br />

<b><span class="text_exposed_show">What she's talking about when she spoke of the fabric I tied on the package are these stretchy cords that I tie in a bow around the packages. I'm not absolutely certain, but its probably fairly unique to me. About 2 years ago I discovered this technique that I use to decorate my packages today. The bows I tie on the packages are simply swim fabric. The fabric is cut into 3/4"- 1" strips and then stretched until it curls up into a pretty, stretchy tie! Depending on which way the fabric stretches (and you'll have to test it out) it will either curl up to show either the inside or the outside of the print. I want the outside of the pretty print to show. Certain fabrics may not want to curl up, but when I find one that does, I try to get several strips out of it and curl them!! Here's 2 example pictures below... </span></b><br />

<b> Today I went searching through my fabric boxes that hold small pieces of swim fabrics. Earlier this Summer I took the opportunity to buy some (okay, many) factory sample fabrics. Some were 1/2yd - full yard pieces, and others were less than half yards. This white box in the picture is the latter. Small pieces. I received these fabrics, many of them, but with almost no matches. All different! I figured these would be great for making girl's scrunchy tops and posting them for sale. *<i>I won't include these in fabric options for custom made things. (it would simply take far too much time to take a couple hundred pictures, of these fabrics that don't have any quantity to speak of.) </i></b><br />

<b> I was looking for a print with red in it. I was hoping to find something to make a swim top to match my Toddler's red swim bottoms. I came up with these. (okay, so these weren't the only prints I found with red in them... these were just what I felt like at the moment :-) Funny how picking fabric can be determined by what your mood is lol!) I was having a difficult time deciding, but someone in my craft group said stripes may look boyish. Another commented that they liked the floral print. So I think I'm going with that one. But someone else also suggested putting a bow on the striped top. That could be cute too. Decisions, decisions... Feel free to give an opinion on it if you like :-) </b><br />

<b> I was also blessed to be able to de-stash the fabrics I would not use. The middle package was an order, but the priority packages were fabric that I re-sold and sent out today! :-) So awesome! Very thankful! </b><br />

<br />
<b> Have you ever tried to get a label off of a jar, or some other object? Tried soaking it in water and soap? Scraping and scrubbing at it maybe? I know I have! I was introduced to this Peanut Butter Peeling trick about a year ago. I have to say that it works great!! All you need to do is cover the sticker/label in Peanut Butter and wait. The last label I removed, I waited about a whole day. It doesn't work super fast, but leave it on there long enough to let the oils completely soak into the label.... and wha la! My label nearly fell off all on it's own! This makes the label come off completely clean! If you haven't tried it, you should! </b><br />

<b>This is the little stool that my kids use in their bathroom. It had 2 stickers on it. I had removed one and thought I was done. But there was another on the other side lol! This little stool came from kids R us. You're looking at the back side of the label. And as you can see, it came off all in one complete piece. Look how smooth that is! The plastic stool had no sign that there was ever a sticker on it. The Peanut Butter Peel worked perfectly! :-)</b>Savannahhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01324603972785397125noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-843251982200552591.post-78697987289424705232015-07-31T21:41:00.000-07:002015-08-04T21:22:44.787-07:00Goodbye JulySo, as promised, I am posting pictures of some recent work. I'm not entirely sure I have all the pictures though. My hubby has the 2nd camera card at the moment, and I think there are more on there. But we shall proceed with posting this blog. I can update it later if needed. I'm actually going to do a little bit of cheating here.. its so close to midnight, and I said in my last post that I would blog again before July was out.. so its STILL July, with only 20 minutes to spare lol! The cheating I'm referring to is that I'm going to publish this blog post without the photos, so the time stamp reads 'July 31st' and I'm still in the 'July' window lol! Its bad, I know! :-P The pictures below are of projects finished in July 2015. <br />
