Solid Simplicity 8379

Posted on by The Sewcial Sewist

I was finally able to carve out some time with my daughter, who was able to snap a few photos of me this past weekend in some of my creations I have completed. Simplicity 8379 has become one of my favorites due to its quick and easy sew. This pattern can be made in a solid or print and it will always be perfect.

High Low Summer Maxi Dress Simplicity 1358

Posted on by The Sewcial Sewist

This easy summer sewing pattern is Simplicity 1358. It is a quick and easy sew with only four pieces. The 4 pieces include, the front and back, 2 arm holes, and the neckband. The pattern sizing is XXS – XXL. I cut the size medium in order for it to have flow. The chosen fabric is a knit from Michael Levine in Los Angeles, california. I would recommend this pattern for beginner sewers who are looking to complete a first project. The instructions were straightforward and easy to follow.

Vogue 9253

Posted on by The Sewcial Sewist

I am so in LOVE with everything about this dress. I was afraid of it at first because it has darts and pleats. I finished it any way and it turned out just as I had imagined it in my head. The fabric was a must have. I found it at Angels Textiles in the Fashion District in Los Angeles, CA. If I recall correctly it was $3.00 a yard. I call this one my Michelle Pfiefer from Scarface dress. #v9253 @mccallpatterncompany #isewmyownclothes #sewingissexy

Simplicity 8379 Dress

Posted on by The Sewcial Sewist

I would have to say that this is going to be one of my favorites for the summer. 2 pieces, front and back, 2 armholes, and 1 neckband. Super quick to cut out and even easier to sew. Mine is made out of an ITY knit fabric from Michael Levine’s that I have had in my stash for about 2 years. I’ll be making again soon in a solid color.
