I made two things...

[SamanthaLove]

So I've never really sewn in my entire life but my mom used to sew a lot so she has all the equipment. Once I stumbled on the how to make a tote bag episode I was absolutely hooked, I rushed off to thriftko and found this big giant flowery shirt and then I used an old sheet for lining. So here's my tote bag from my first attempt:

(Sorry about the overly exciting pajamas :-P)

And then after that I decided that I wanted to make a something a little more complicated so I thought I'd take a black shirt and a red and black striped shirt and combine them into a halter top, it's not quite done yet but here are the preliminary pics.

Oh yeah, and there are some bumps in the fabric in the pics because I haven't trimmed the inside extra fabric yet, and the collar is crooked because I'm positioned a little weird since I had to hold it up in the picture because I haven't made the tie for the neck yet and I'm using a not quite long enough loose piece of fabric in the pictures.

After buying generation T I'm actually now in the process of making arm warmers that match, and I'm even thinking of turning it to a band T-shirt and stenciling the Radiohead bear on the front.


Look what this site has done to me, I've been a total recluse for the past week! But I love it >.<!!

The top looks fantastic so far! I love the neckline.

And I really love the purse. That's really fantastic for a first attempt. Plus I'm drawn to florals on a black background.

[goofipinay]

but mainly the top cause it's awesome =]

[crystalzemoose]

I love the Halter, it looks very cool. the bags is fun too.
