Bow Tie Neck Pillows

I am LOVING this Bow Tie Neck Pillow pattern I found at Sew4Home.


Super easy, used scrap fabric and so comfy! I am not the best photographer so forgive me! I made 2 in under an hour! ( I new my BF would steal mine so I made him one too!)

I did do a variation where I sewed in a zipper to put the stuffing in ( I loathe hand sewing closed pillows) I also put a little bit of dried lavender inside too for a soothing scent!

Here is the link to the instructions: http://www.sew4home.com/projects/pillows-cushions/relaxing-therapeutic-neck-pillows-fan-favorite

Give it a try and let me know what you think!

Cami Test

I just finished week 5 of my lingerie class. This week I drafted and constructed a cami! After a test fit and pattern alternation for armhole gapping I have an awesome fit! I used fold over elastic for the binding and straps. Much more difficult to work with than I expected. I definitely need more practice and patience!

My First Pair of Panties!

I signed up to take BurdaStyle Academy's Sew Your Own 8 Pc Lingerie Collection. 

The below is a High Classic Brief that I drafted and sewed. This is the 2nd one I actually made because the 1st pair was a test for ease and was wayyyyy to big!
