Second edition

This is the second time I've sewn from this pattern (first one here). I wanted to make a plain version that's good for day-to-day wear, so I picked a cotton/lyrcra fabric. I really do love how easy this dress is to make and wear, you know?
dress from McCalls 6886 pattern worn with Vans slip ons


Here are the other stuff I've knitted/sewed lately:
1) Crofthoose Hat (pattern here)

2) Love Birds Jumper (pattern here)


3) Jalie ballet leotard (sewing pattern here)
This is third one I've made for her. See the other two below:D

Anyhoo, is there something you've made or bought over and over because you really just love it?

I think it's rare to find something like that these days, but when you do, you've got to have it in every colour available!

Holy cow, I didn't know that we can sew leotards at home?! Damn...your kids are so lucky to have you as mum, I mean imagine all the cool clothes that you can sew for them! Absolutely loving your outfit with the leather jacket and distressed jeans, you are one chic mama.

It's nice to have a pattern you're familiar with, so it's easy to modify it, eh?

The little one in the last photo! :D I wish I'd be so talented and make my own clothes, at least every now and then, something I'd really like. Now I wouldn't have the time anyway, but maybe one day I try to make something. I like that red dress on her!

 If you've been reading my blog for the past few months, then you know my love for Alabama Chanin. Here's the newest addition to my wardrobe. :) Alabama Chanin Flora Waffle Sweatshirt, worn with North Face jacket, UNIQLO pants, and Vans sneakers The organic waffle knit fabric is naturally dyed using Sappanwood sawdust, and the foliage design is hand-painted! What I love about Alabama Chanin is that many of their pieces are one-of-a-kind. PS It was my eldest's birthday when these pics were taken:) How was your weekend? Any new purchases lately?

Here are some recent shots taken with my Pentax K1000 film camera. I decided to mail my films and have them developed at Downtown Camera , and oh my gosh, you guys! Such a big difference with how they turned out. So so happy, and will be sending all my 35mm films to them from now on. (All these shots were how they were sent to me...no editing. Used Fujifilm ISO200 films.)
