Sip & Sew Trapeze Dress

Hello Lovelies!!! 

I've been gone for a little while, sick on and off for the past few weeks. About 15 minutes after everyone left the last Sip & Sew I got really really nauseous and stayed down for at least 3 days ugggggh. I'm all better now! Thank God! 

Below are pics from the last Sip & Sew and the announcement of the next one coming up this Saturday, March 19th. If you would like to join us visit www.chachankole.com/sewalong .See ya there :)

The next Sip & Sew we will be constructing a pencil skirt. Click the picture below to register...

Dress Form Makeover

Well Hello!!!

Happy Hump-day! So, I was looking through some pics I posted recently of some of my draping and pattern making work and thought about how tattered my poor size 12 (realistically a size 6) dress form, Honey, looked. She was a gift from my cousin a few years back. She was put out in the trash and he came to the rescue. Good job Cousin!

I fixed her up before by putting a few pins in to keep the torn fabric from tearing any more and that's about it. Honey has been a great help to me over the years so I figured it was time for me to give her a much needed and well deserved makeover.

See the process below...

Honey is looking pretty snazzy now!!!

Need help doing a dress form makeover? Let me know...I'm here to help!

Meet Me At The Cafe

This Sunday is the first Sunday Sew Cafe...I'm really looking forward to it! Probably for a reason that you wouldn't expect. I don't get out much...go figure...so the Sunday Sew Cafe is kind of like a person who never has anyone over their house, but wants friends and all of a sudden someone calls and says "I'm coming over" LOL... Sometimes I just want creative people around. People I can bounce ideas off or give suggestions to or just enjoy each others company. Everyone needs to be in the presence of other passionate people in their field. It helps you stay motivated and gets your juices flowing. 

Will I see you on Sunday Friend?

Remember... I want to hear from you!!!
