Can’t you believe that it is already the end of the year again??
As usual I love to put together all things that I have sewn in one post to see how I have been doing this year. Some pieces got worn a lot, and some don’t get much wearing time. I think it helps me to see what I should be making next or what kind of style that I’m into at this moment.
For myself: tops, pants, skirt, a coat, a bathing suit, and as usual more dresses!
Lingerie: Still continuing my journey in lingerie-making. I also made a corset!
For Sidra: Not too many, mostly pants because it seems that he is growing in such a fast rate nowadays. I made him a jacket every autumn, and this year it is a cape per his request.
For my husband: Err… just a pair of jeans so here’s a single big photo of the jeans (-_-;) He recently asked for a long-sleeved T-shirt so maaaybe I can make one before the end of the year (which is tonight??).
For the dogs: We started to foster dog this year so I have another one to sew for! I love making pet clothes as they are small and such perfect projects for recycling old clothes. When the dogs got adopted, they got to take the clothes with them so I can sew for the next foster. One of the happiest news this year is that we finally adopted one of the foster!
Also: a yoga mat bag for my sister in law.
I finally got a pixie haircut after negotiating with Sidra for 6 years. Although it is not directly sewing-related, but the hair kinda affects my choice for the next sewing projects. Maybe it shouldn’t have to, but I can’t help thinking if those dresses in my wardrobe still suit my hair or not. I got bored with myself frequently and always tried to make changes, although sometimes subtle, to my appearance. So maybe it is time to explore other style of clothing than what I usually wear in the past. Let’s see what 2014 will bring!
Have a happy holiday and see you next year!
Wow,
You’re so productive for you, Sidra and the dog and each time it worths it. I love your lingerie set. It seeems so difficult to realize. Did you sew something in 2013 for your husband ? Maybe in 2014 ;D
it’s always amazing to look back and reflect on all the great things that we’re blessed with. nice to see you’re still creative and always churning out some beautiful creations! if you ever have too many clothes, or need a change in wardrobe, i’m sure there would be takers (like me lol, unashamedly who wished i had such talent)!
What a wonderful year of sewing you had! You are so talented, your garments are beautiful! Very inspirational
A year of gorgeously inspiring makes from where I’m sitting! And gosh, I do LOVE your pixie cut!
So inspiring! and I *love* your hair 😀
Wow! What a lot of makes, which I always love reading about. This year I am determined to properly learn to sew my own clothes, with your inspiration! I love your doggie tales, too. Both long and short hair styles really suit you. Have a great year, Jen
Really fond of everything you’ve done and related here. They’re awesome. You’re great girl. Your jobs has inspired me to do some sewing even it’s quite hard for. Happy new year and God bless you and your family. Hope to see more wonderful job in 2014. Thank you!
You had some great makes in 2014! The dog clothes are adorable, and your printed dresses are lovely! Great way to start the new year with a new haircut, great look for you!
Wow! You made a lot this year and all the pieces looked well constructed. I’m always impressed with your lingerie makings and this year was no exception.
The haircut looks great. I actually like it better than the old do.
I love following your sewing adventures, and your lingerie is amazing. Have an amazing 2014 exploring wardrobe items for your new haircut – which looks fabulous
Happy new year! You’ve made some lovely clothes, I especially like your Tiramisu dress. Funny, there was one time when I cut my hair short (and immediately felt sorry about it the next day..) and it also affected the way I would dress
Happy 2014! I must tell you that I love the things you make for Sidra. I have a little boy and now I want to make him something like the Sarouel pants — so cute.
Happy New Year! Your lingerie making is so impressive! I’d love to branch out into that one day. I am also so in love with your Robson and Bombshell! It must feel good seeing all your lovely handmade things together on one page like that!
I love your pixy hair cut! After seeing Inna of thewallinna had it, I was contemplating on doing it myself. I can totally see it affecting your choice of clothing! Happy new year novita!
You certainly had a good sewing year! so productive! Happy 2014 to you, i cant wait to see what you come up with for yourself and your family!
I really have loved following your posts in 2013 and look forward to many more in 2014. Your new hairstyle really suits you.
We adopted a rescue doggie, Aimee, a few years ago. She is the heart of our home and it was so good to see your fosters and your own adopted doggie.
Wishing you and your family everything good for 2014.
Love and hugs from Cape Town, South Africa. xx

All of your posts are a great and I especially love reading about the foster dogs and seeing what you sew for them.
