Thrift flip: from basic blouse to flamenco ruffles

I purchased this black blouse via Vinted about a year ago. It meets all the requirements

3 things sewing teaches you about life

My mother used to sew all our clothes for me and my two sisters. Like so

We can prolong the life of our clothes and sheets We can prolong the life of our clothes and sheets BIG TIME with a simple dye make over from time to time. These pillow sheets are good quality, but simply stained through use. So I dyed them in a sandy color, close to the stains.

The sheets will be next💛🧡🤎

Absolutely loving the #saguaroset ✌️😍 It's Absolutely loving the #saguaroset ✌️😍

It's an easy make, although for me the crotch was way too long (i ALWAYS have crotch issues😅) I needed to take it in a few inches. The top didn't need any adjustments. 

The saguaro set lends itself for a so many accasions; chique, beachy, casual, and so on. And as i've seen it on so many other women, it's flattering on a lot of body types. So kudos for @fridaypatterncompany for creating this awesome set!!

I cut up a self made linen skirt that didn't tun o I cut up a self made linen skirt that didn't tun out the way I wanted to. And turned it into this tiered dress for my daughter.

I used the Jasmine @peonypatterns for the dress. And Abel textile for the dyeing process.

This experiment turned out better than I hoped🧡💙💜🌈 I really enjoyed messing with the colors and stirring in textile soup in the evening sun. A perfect relaxing summer activity💛

How to go from a thrifted white blouse to a pink u How to go from a thrifted white blouse to a pink unicorn dream? Watch and enjoy the ride. I surely did🌈🦄 I love the unfolding process of thriftflips, not knowing the outcome and taking it step by step. Sometimes the results are hideous, but this project is a winner. I've never seen my daughter this excited with a me made dress 💃🧚💘

Thank you @katiekortmanart for the idea of pimping buttons with nailpolish. This worked amazingly well😍

Olé💚💛💚💛 My self drafted linen skirt! Olé💚💛💚💛 My self drafted linen skirt! Really happy with the result. These are the kind of skirts I want to live in during summer.

I was planning on writing a 'How to' blog about how to calculate the squares for this skirt, but work has been crazy busy🙄 To be postponed😅 Again! 

Top is thrifted.

What you can do with just four squares of fabric! What you can do with just four squares of fabric! @_diydaisy has a great tutorial on her blog how to make this Rectangle Ruffle Skirt. It's such an easy and fun make! And as you can see, the calculations for the width of the squares work fine for kids too💃 It's a DIY no waste pattern🙌

I stashed some nice green and yellow linnen to create my own rectangle skirt. 

Pattern for the top is a hacked Charlie dress by @smospotten.en.snoesjes

It still fills me with so much pride and joy when It still fills me with so much pride and joy when my kid walks around in a memade outfit. When I just started out with sewing 1,5 years ago, I wrote a blog about what sewing teaches you about life:

"...when you actually sew one simple garment yourself, you realise how much time and effort is needed and you will see your wardrobe with different eyes. More appreciative. All your clothes are touched by human hands, who are trying to make a living with their craft skills." Check link bio for the full blog👆

I made the #SaltwaterSlip in anticipation of those I made the #SaltwaterSlip in anticipation of those magic spring days🧚🌸☀️ Although I regret the current weather conditions in the Netherlands (SO cold and wet), they do show what a versatile make this slip dress is. A great layering piece that befriends turtle necks, cosy knits, blazers and so much more. 

I used a light weight drapey floral viscose, the first time I worked with this kind of fabric. It was really slippery, so thank you @lovetosew.podcast for your starch spray tip. It helped a lot making the fabric a bit sturdier. And I want to join team rotary cutter, since cutting viscose with scissors is a nightmare😱 I just need to create some space for a decent cutting mat.

Aside from the slippery challenges; I will definitely make a second (and third) Saltwater slip dress. I spotted a ruffle hack that I'm keen on trying😍 Also kudos for the instructions and sew along by @fridaypatterncompany , they guide you through every step. AND they donate a percentage of their sales to one of the most effective charities worldwide, Give Directly. Alle the more reason to start sewing😁

For now🤞 for sunnier days☀️
