A Blast from the Past

I thought it would be fun to start out sharing my very 1st design. It was 2 years ago. I didn't know how to sew but after seeing custom boutique on eBay, I really wanted to learn how. I have a strong art background and love using my creative nature. So I started with these hanky dresses. Over time I started embellishing tees and jeans. Then onto attempting patterns. And I do say attempt...even to this day I have a hard time following directions and prefer using a pattern piece here and there and drafting my own. I treat my designs as I would as if I were sculpting. Somtimes I can't believe how much I have grown in 2 years and, I still have so much more to learn!

My advice, give your dreams a try, you may surprize yourself!
