Me N Mom Matching skirts

Made matching skirts for Adithi and Me. We love wearing matchy outfits and flaunting our matchy accessories. Just the thrill that we both are wearing alike keeps us motivated to wear matchy match . Not sure though, how long this will continue , with Adithi growing up, I am not sure if she would like to be seen wearing outfits which matches with her mom's... That is for future, now lets enjoy the moment right now where she really loves to match with mom provided I reassure her that despite the similarity , her outfit is better than mine :)

l Made half circle skirt using By Hand London Circle Skirt App which made my job easier

.

Used waist facing with back zipper closure

for  Adithi it's a Full circle skirt for her seat measurement which us fitted using elasticised waist band.

Thank you By Hand London for the circle app, which saves me from doing the math. 

Matching Skirts and Shrugs !

The moment I saw crafter hours skirt week tutorial, link to which is given below,I knew I had to make one for self and I did :)

Custom fit skirt tutorial

Cotton satin that I had got about 2 months back when I was in springy mood, gelled well with the plain poly cotton green that my sister had sent through my parents . She had in fact sent lots of fabrics, of which I plan to make atleast one outfit for self , yes, remember I promised to show some self love and this the first outfit of the series !

Made the skirts first and the. Decided to make matching shrugs with leftover material, as I felt complete matchy match look is what I was looking for. 

Now can you spot 8 differences ;)

Also did revamp of my boring flip flops and added a matching fabric button to it !

We got some amused looks, some couldn't control their laughter (I wonder why, are we looking that funny in matching outfits) never mind, that is not going to stop my daughter and me from wearing matching outfits, coz we love wearing them matchy match !

Plan to sew more skirts, in different styles though, atleast one every week, lets see, fingers crossed. I had taken to swimming and it has become an addiction now which takes much of my sewing hours, but I hope to do better time management and have really productive sewing hours. 

Shoulder blades are stiff and sour , they were cramped already and swimming has aggravated is even further and I plan to rest for a while before I do anything in excess , as my body is craving for rest.

Btw, got a printer yesterday and hope to make good use of it for printing free patterns as well as sharing few patterns that I made, any tips on how to share my self drafted patterns, so that can be downloaded by readers as PDF . All advise in this regard is much appreciated

Matching Mom & Me Skirts

Made these last week , after an exhausting day of sewing the drawing book holder, i needed a relatively easy breezy project and this one was just that.

Maxi skirts are so in vogue here in KL among native Malays and wanted to make one for self for quite sometime now and there was remaining material which had to be used for my little muse (don't tell her that it was remaining material !)

Matching skirts for Mom & Me , sounds exciting option for my upcoming clothing line and decided to make a prototype. The fabric is stretch knit jersey and my new brother 3034D serger made my work a lot easier.

Made matching headbands using leftover fabric !

Custom Orders Undertaken for the skirt sets; will provide fabric swatches available soon !

It has been a busy week so far having made another Drawing Book Holder, Crayon Rolls, Cute little Brocade Coin Pouch (this one I love the most!) will be posting them soon. Most  of my time is spent on housekeeping and sewing, not much time to blog, somehow squeezed in even before i got started on my domestic chores today :P  . 

Have opened my etsy store here, feel free to browse through and give your feedback.
