Dressing Just for Me! Draping on my own!
“I'd like to believe that the women who wear my clothes are not dressing for other people, that they're wearing what they like and what suits them. It's not a status thing.”
~Marc Jacobs~
Waste Not Want Not McCalls & New Look Together at last!
Palazzo Ready With Butterick 4807!
I like being a woman, even in a man’s world. After all, men can’t wear dresses, but we can wear the pants.'
~Whitney Houston~
Two New DIY & Tutorials added!
Happy Saturday Threaders!
As promised I have posted two DIY demonstrations on the Videos page of the Blog. I was finally able to tie my daughter down to help me with the taping of the videos. One video shows how I created a Bishop Sleeve from a basic sleeve block and the other is a quick diy on how to create the Baby-Doll top using Simplicity Pattern S1613. I hope you enjoy the video's and please don't hesitate to post your questions in the comments section and I'll get back to you as soon as possible. Again Happy Saturday and I hope you enjoy this beautiful Day!

Fashion is a Repetition of Ideas!
"Fashion has always been a repetition of ideas, but what makes it new is the way you put it together."
~Carolina Herrera~
Don't obstruct the VIEW!
"A woman’s dress should be like a barbed-wired fence: serving its purpose without obstructing the view!"
~Sophia Loren~
Print fitted dress with Bishop Sleeves!
Encouraging New Sewers!
Those Shoulders
“Why am I so determined to put the shoulder where it belongs? Women have very round shoulders that push forward slightly; this touches me and I say: ‘One must not hide that!’ Then someone tells you: ‘The shoulder is on the back’. I have never seen women with shoulders on their backs.”
~Coco Chanel~
Lace Baby Doll
"I love anything off the shoulders! It adds just the right touch of sex appeal without being too over the top"

“Time changes everything.” That’s what people say, but it’s not really true. Doing things changes things. Not doing things leaves things exactly as they were. So approach the start of each day with one goal and end the day with one word: DONE!
~Unknown Author~
There's nothing quite like the color GOLD!
"The Color is Gold Children! How quickly fashion goes down the drain. Last week when you all was wearin' pink, already for me red was old. The ultimate brick is gold; that's the new color, children! Golden gold!"
~The Wiz~
You haven't seen it like this! Blue Panel Top with Neck Bow
“Never use the word “cheap”. Today everybody can look chic in inexpensive clothes (the rich buy them too). There is good clothing design on every level today. You can be the chicest thing in the world in a T-shirt and jeans — it’s up to you.”
~Karl Lagerfeld~~
Out with the Old in with the NEW!
"The secret to change is to focus all your energy, not on fighting the old but in building the new"
~Socrates~
Sunday Lunch with Friends! What could be better I ask you?
"You'll know the people that feed your soul because you feel good after spending time with them"

Yes "My Daily Threadz" is up and ready to go!
It has taken some time to finally get to this point and I'm excited to see where this journey takes me!
While it is practically impossible for me to sew and post a new garment every single day, I will work hard to keep the blog interesting and respond to your post/questions as quickly as possible.
Please take time to visit the different sections of the blog and get to know what's going on with me daily. I look forward to sharing and creating with you all!
