My hobby

So one of the most random things I do is SEWING!

It all started about 2 years ago, while visiting my family in Brazil.
I got up one morning I told my aunt Dulce (aka Tia) that I was going to make my own dress.
She laughed and said "vestidos são complicados de fazer" (dresses are complicated to make).
I worked hard all morning and took all of my auntie's attention to teach me...

On that same day I called my husband and asked him to buy me a sewing machine cause I could not stop thinking about all the things I could make...He told me that I could only have a machine if I make him a costume.

I went creative and made aprons!

I got a little excited and decided to take a big challenge (I made curtains and pillows)

Not challenged enough, I went crazy...I made a diaper bag, cloth diapers, sleep sacks...



Then a friend asked me to alter her wedding dress...(she is nuts, right?)




I also helped decorating a nursery, I made covers for the glider chair, bumper, sheets (with Marissa's help) and a couple of other things.
I have made several dresses and shirts, altered pants, made blankets, table cloths, and much more...


Now I need your help to decide what to make next!
