Hip pouch by Daisy Janie

Thanks for sharing Daisy.

Hip pouch sew along pouch by DaisyJanie <-------- step by step tutorial.

anthropolgie inspired skirt.

This picture is from their official website.

This skirt is very flattering if you have an hourglass figure or want to accentuate your waist.

The high elastic waistband accentuates the waist and seems like it will be comfy. The a-line, slightly full skirt hides wide hip and thighs. the length was perfect for me.

but the price is 118 after tax. I DECIDED  that i need to make one of my own.
this is the end result that i made in one night, so you can see how much i wanted it.
this small print flower fabric that i chose is a bit thick for this kind of skirt.

and I think I made more pleats than i should have so it makes me look fuller around my hip.  But overall i liked it especialy i made it without pattern.

I did purchase it from the store so i have a real thing in hand to be "inspired".

now that i have made it should i just return it? lol

how to make a stylish pencil case by Pink Penguin

                                   First of all, the original tutorial is here from Pink Penguin.

                             I am just following her instruction and posting my photos.

 

Here is my huge sewing stuff case/ makeup case. I had my own measurement, because I wanted to use this brown home deco scrap as much as possible so that I won't have some 4'x5' little piece laying around. 

The side view of it.

Thank you,  Ayumi, I've always wanted to do this kind of fabric case.

There is a white case in the photo that was a makeup bag from The Body Shop.

I once had a urge to tear it apart just to see how it is assembled.

And this method of applying zipper,

can you see how the  zipper was sandwished between lining and outside fabric.

and adding a tab to the end of zipper just makes the case a more finished look.
