Size H Perennial Blouse by Sewn with Grit. Did a 7/8" fba as per the directions. Sewn in a vintage novelty cotton and antique glass buttons.

My #perennialblouse is done!
Planning on another once I wear this one a few times, in the fabric off to the left. It's a J crew dress, love the fabric but not the shape.

Stoooopp it. These are so good! You are just knocking it out of the park. Love the back tab!

Uggggg, that tee is soooo gooood!

Sleeve on this one. But planning a sleeveless one too.

Just starting to cut out my #perrennialblouse out of some very old novelty print cotton I thrifted. At this point it's giving me Dirndl vibes. Was hoping for more Big Top vibes. We will see. 🤞

Love the colors and stripe placement!

Ohh, I like this idea!

Right?! I hate it.

Editing these overalls and trying a barrel leg on them. Also toying with the idea of knee patches.

That quilt is a damn work of art!

Thanks @threadcampaign.bsky.social for the inspiration.
Made myself a quilted doublet with side ties from scraps from my #swsruecoat, if only I had enough left I could make a pair of pants for a 3 piece cozy time suit!
Self drafted it and sewed it up in small sessions this weekend.

New art piece acquired today. Can't wait to pop it on the wall.

And is requiring lots of reinforcement and repairs along the way.

And a speedy project to boot.

Few sessions during the day and evening. Body done just needs a ribbed collar!

Isnt that always the way, le sign. And then you try them on again later and they are fine. 🤷‍♀️

These are looking so cool!

Kids are back at school and taking some time to just sit in silence and knit up a cover for this hot water bottle I thrifted.

Favorite neighbor came for a visit yesterday.

These are going to be so fun!!

This is next on my list! Perfect for the February challenge.

Such a good color!!

I have two and love them. I also use for reading and sometimes when I need even more light in the sewing room.

So beautiful. Love a log cabin. Maybe this will be the year I finally dye with my marigolds.

100% agree.

Right? By the end I was so done with it. Glad to get back to sewing for myself.

Hi all! I'm Jeanne, pronounced like the pants, which also happens to be my favorite thing to sew. The more detail and fiddly bits the better. I just finished an applique flag for my kid's school that took me a good 3 months.
Here for community and inspiration. And to find my sewjo after that flag.

Two color work mittens laying flat on an orange chair, with a red pillow and sheep skin just off to the side. Mittens are knit in a flower motif and while the pattern matches on the mittens, they are knit in different colors. One is mustard,dark grey, and cobalt blue. The other is light pink, dark muted green, and cobalt blue.

My #Flowerfolkmittens are off the needles and freshly blocked, just in time for our first (possible) snowfall of the season.
Found this free pattern on Ravery and used partial skeins of Jamiesons from my stash.
