Am back! =D

I wonder why  I have a blog.. I don't update it anymore >_<

My passion to learn how to sew is back! lol

I almost gave up on it.. coz there was NO where I could get an answer.. but here I am.. again.. trying to make it WORK! =D

I was wondering..


if I used a measurement chart to sew clothes for kids.. will that just be fine like a readymade clothes we buy from stores =)

I don't have kids to sew clothes for.. I just do it for fun.. so I don't have a child that I can get their body measurement and practice sewing on them =P

I will have a help from a member from one of the forums.. =) (Am so thankful she answered my questions) and I am gonna see where that goes =D

wish me luck <3




صراحه ناااااااااااااااسيه هالبلوق من الخاطر هههههههه

اخيرن رجعت.. و رجعت لحبي للخياطه من عقب انقطااااااااااااااع
كان سببه اني عيزت و انا ادوّر حد يفهّمني كيف اعتمد على القياسات العالميه في خياطة ملابس الأطفال

ما عندي عيال اجرّب عليهم

حتى عيال اخوي.. مش موجودين فالبيت عشان العوزهم ^_*

أخيرن وحده من عضوات واحد من المنتديات ردّت علي سؤال كنت سائلتنهم ايّاه .. عن هالشي

سؤالي كان.. كيف استخدم جداول القياسات العالميّه.. عشان اخيّط ملابس جاهزه.. للأطفال

عاد يالله.. بسير اتعلّم .. و برجع لكم ان شاااااااااااااااء الله بكم قطعه اتخقق بهن عليكم ههههههههههههه


لي عووووده ;)

My first Pillow dress

Hello =D

I just finished making a pillow dress ;D thanks to NanaKid's turorial. I started at 11:30 pm and just finished it exactly at 2:30 am.. it was simple... yet fun :D

this is the result.. ^_^


I have few mistakes.. the obvious one is the bottom hem.. -,-
the fabric was not enough :S
I had to add few more inches to get the 45 inches in the tutorial :D


Am super happy with the result :)

I bought my serger.. was not lucky to find embroidery machine =(  I will keep looking though =D

I am reading more about standard body sizes.. from this article..
There are hundreds of things that are going in my mind to start learning.. I would love to join sewing classes.. however I have transportation problem.. so I know I will miss few classes now and then..

I am trying to read as much as I can.. and to practice what I read as well :)
