      What started from a pair of pink linen pants that What started from a pair of pink linen pants that shrunk and were lookin’ like I was waiting for a flood, and a swimsuit cover-up that I never used because it always wrinkled, have now become a pretty pink blouse that will be perfect for hot summer days 🎀☀️🧵

Made by me #keepgoing I never knew how rewarding this could be. Good for my soul. Good for the planet #winwin

      I think I’ll call her Karencita 🎀 She start I think I’ll call her Karencita 🎀 

She started life as linen pants, a cotton beach cover-up, and a magenta pillowcase — and somehow became the most perfect pink summer blouse (the final project…remember the prototype last week?) 💖☀️

Here’s the chaotic part: I was mid-cut on the sleeves when I realized I didn’t have enough flower fabric. Turns out those magenta pillowcases I thrifted last month were meant to be! The sleeves became their own thing, the side ties carry that pop of color through, and honestly? The mismatch made her better. More interesting. More her. #allpinkeverything 

What do you think? Would you wear this blouse? You can also tie it in the front if you like it that way more (see last slide) 🧵

      The Prototype. I made this off shoulder blouse as The Prototype. I made this off shoulder blouse as my first sewing project. I’m pretty proud of myself. What do you think? Would you wear this blouse?#beginnersewer #theprototype 

The fabric used was a cotton bedsheet…thrifted 🤫 I needed something cheap and easy to use as practice fabric for my first project in case of mistakes. Not bad huh? I’ll definitely be wearing this IRL. 

Next I’ll move on to my final project using good quality fabric from some clothes I never wear anymore #upcyclingclothes is the new cool 👚

True story: Never sewed a day in my life. Bought a sewing machine and didn’t touch it for almost 3 weeks. Finally started cutting a sewing pattern for a puff sleeve blouse on a Monday and finished the prototype on a Friday. Before making the sleeves puffy, I did a fitting and loved the sleeves loose instead so decided to keep them like this. 

Since day one of sewing, already obsessed. My hands are busy, my brain is quiet, and honestly? I’m kind of a natural 🧵🦄 

Yay to trying new things and being good at them…proof that you can do anything you set your mind to ✨✨✨ #sewingcommunity

If you saw the sequel, did you notice Andy wearing the cerulean sweater at the end of the movie that got her a lashing in part 1?? You may have missed it because it wasn’t the same thing… it was cut into a vest! #devilwearsprada2 

#upcyled clothing is my new fav 🥰🥰🥰 #funfact I have always loved this vest I’m wearing which I bought at a vintage shop despite it being a lil loose (until today, that is)! I took it in and tailored it to my body free of charge with my new skill. I can hear money coming back into my account…cha ching! My loins are girded!

Side note: wearing a rosette choker handmade by yours truly 🤍#oneofakindart

I think SEW 😹😻🧵🪡 Made this rosette choker from a tshirt #upcycling #selftaught (and also the headband, btw) It’s also a great way to work on my fine motor skills while doing something new that I enjoy 🙌🏽 #mswarrior #beginnersewing #sewingcommunity 

This is actually my second project. Can’t wait to show you the first. Have to take a pic 📸
