Feature Friday: Adventures in Dressmaking

December 18, 2009 By crafterhours 1 Comment

Hi everyone!  I want to introduce you to a very ambitious blogger, Suzannah from Adventures in Dressmaking.  In her own words, “I usually make at least one cool clothing or home dec item per day.”  I’ve been reading her blog for a little while now, and I can assure you, she’s not joking!  I don’t know how she does it, but she is always making something amazing.

I think my favorite part of her blog is her approach to showing off her stuff.  Me?  I will write a 4 page blog post and shout from the rooftops when I’ve made, oh, a paper snowflake.  But she just casually writes up a little paragraph saying something like, “Oh, hi guys, I just made this dress inspired by Boden today.”

For example, one day she just popped out with this little number:

I love this shirt she made based on a JCrew shirt:

And check out how she stenciled her plain throw pillows to make them totally original and gorgeous:

Oh, and she’s met Amy.  As if I weren’t jealous enough already.

Go check her out today and get some inspiration!

    What a great blog. I love the fabric flower pins and the jean patching tutorial which I needed so badly. Another great blog to follow!
