Hi loves♥ Guess what I’ve been lounging around in today? My brand new, homemade lace robe! I’m soo happy with it, it turned out exactly how I wanted it, in fact even prettier! The fabric is sheer, but not too see-through, it flows when I walk, and it’s oh-so-soft.
There’s a small bow inside..
..and a bigger one on the outside, just to make sure the ‘girls’ aren’t suddenly exposed involuntarily, hah.
This wasn’t difficult to make at all! I used my imagination, cut out the pieces, secured the hems, then just sew all the pieces together. It only took me a couple of hours, where most of the time was spent sewing the hems.
The fabric was like 60kr/$10 per meter, so it was very budget friendly to make too. WIN!
Do you guys like it?? Seriously, nothing beats just letting your creativity take over, and actually be able to wear something you’ve made yourself. It’s such an amazing feeling! Maybe I’ll end up making these as Christmas presents for my friends and family in stead of the makeup bags I made last year :) Now I can’t wait to get started on the next sewing project! Fride is celebrating her birthday this Saturday, and the plan was to make a dress to wear. I don’t want to rush anything, because after my experience, when you rush, you make silly mistakes. But we’ll see :)
What do you guys think?♥
Nydelig! Hvor mange meter kjøpte du? :) gleder meg til og se bilder av den på!
Tusen takk søte :) Det er ikke noe jeg har tenkt på, men hadde jo egentlig vært gøy. Skal legge ut bilder med den på i morgen, du får se om du liker den like godt da :) Klem
Jeg kjøpte tre meter bare for sikkerhetsskyld, men ble en del stoff til overs :) Tar ca 40min for meg å kjøre til stoffbutikken, så kjøper alltid litt mer enn jeg tror jeg trenger bare i tilfelle :)
Ooh så kul! Har du virkelig håndsydd den? Det må være tidskrevende :O Kjempebra jobbet :D
Jepp, 100% håndsydd, jeg kan ikke sy på maskin så da måtte det bli for hånd. Det tok laaang tid, men det var verdt det. Selvom det ble mange såre fingre mot slutten ^^ Jeg er veldig fornøyd med den =)
Your lace robe is so beautiful! You’ve inspired me ! Do you have a lot of experience sewing ? I was wondering because it looks so perfect!! I’m impressed! P.s. What can I call you? Do you go by “Cath” ?
Thank you so much sweetie :) No, I don’t have a lot of experience, just a big will, haha :) You can call me Cath :)
Den var knallfin! Så utrolig flink du er :-)
Takk søte :)
