Summer Sewing
Submitted by Shannon on June 25, 2009 - 11:56amI know. Too much time between posts. I don’t come empty handed though!
This is an amazing site a friend at work passed on to me. What does a girl need more than a cute, stylish, multi-tasking dress! The One Dress project put the power of social networking sites like Facebook, MySpace, Twitter and Flickr to use by connecting over 1000 women who essentially designed this one dress. By sharing their lifestyles, needs and dreams they helped design a dress for any occasion. The knit jersey fabric is perfect for travel and if you wander around on their site you’ll see all the different styles the dress can produce makes this a truly classic dress and well worth the investment!
I have been pretty inspired in the garment area lately. For me, summer time is the hardest time to stay inside and sew but this adorable top and irresistible dress made it onto my to-make-very-soon list! If you’re looking for another quick, restyle project make sure to download the Lace Tank Top from the Free Project Download section of the site!

And if you’re in the mood for a road trip check out the workshop my friends at DIY Style are putting on in St. Louis! Fun classes with fun, talented girls!
April Snow brings May flowers...right?

It is April. This is my backyard. This weather is crazy! Poor little crocus. Even the snow can't dull my excitement this week. Hubby and I leave later this week for a holiday with my parents and sisters on the east coast. It has been a long time since I've been home for Passover and I am really looking forward to giving/getting some fantastic hugs. I'll be sure to bring back stories and pictures!
I will be honest and say I have been swept away by the land of tweets lately. Twitter has already proven to be a great way to meet people, find out cool things going on in my community and find great fabric sales (and one can NEVER have too much fabric!). So if you're on Twitter you can follow me at theninaline. I think that makes us tweeps then, right?
If you're looking for something to do between tweets, wander over to the how-to videos and check out seam, seam ripping and fabric grains. Or if you're looking for something cute to make check out this spring styled table setting!
