Hi! I’m Kitty and I adore fabric. I’m not a great seamstress (I would describe myself as an advanced beginner) but I’m passionate about sewing. As much as I love this creative hobby, I have to admit I have lots of sewing fears: buttonholes and zippers come to mind immediately! I’ve taken a few sewing classes but I learn by repetition so it’s practice makes perfect for me, although really I’d settle for just wearable. I’m trying to learn enough about sewing so I’ll be able to make and wear clothing without being asked “did you make that?”

Tell me you #sew without telling me you sew. My night stand is usually littered with sewing paraphernalia. ❤️
I get to go out to a party!!! Putting fringe on a skirt I made just for the occasion. The top was my mom's that I love wearing with jeans but looks perfect with shiny skirts. .
Adding some fringe to my couch. Had a velvet square from @asgdenver fabric sale a couple of years ago and popped that swishy fringe on it. Don't think the pupper will eat it like the pompoms. .
Latest reads from our greatest treasure, the #library. Do you ever pick books because the cover is pretty? .
I'm at that age where I'm growing more self-conscious of my neck and my hands and triceps and using 'lol' in a sentence.
Found my new basic blouse pattern. From Butterick #8864 it's going to be in heavy rotation. Super simple but great for summer silks. I kinda like it matched with the leopard. This is a silk crepe from Colorado Fabrics (RIP)..
Hey! Our first in-person meetup is happening this week. Bring a project, a snack if you like, or just yourself. We have a lot to catch up on! I have a few things I'd like to find a good home for, plus a JoAnn's gift card we'll have a drawing for! Hope to see you there! Check meetup for details or you can DM me! Link in Bio to Meetup page.
From the IG head: it no longer wants to be thought of as the “square photo-sharing app,” But will (as it has been ) compete even more aggressively with TikTok and moving more into full screen, immersive video entertainment. Thoughts? I gotta admit (since I'm not a business) I do miss IG as a photo, social sharing app. I do see the value for businesses being on IG but less so (for me) as someone who uses it in simpler ways. #instagramnews #sewcialists #sewcialistsofinstagram #denversews ##sewhappy #sewingcommunity #fashionsewing #lovesewing #wearwhatyoumake #sewover50 #sewover40 #genxsewing #fabricaddict #makersofinstagram #denversews #makersgonnashare #fabriclover #memadewardrobe #memadeeveryday #isewmyownclothes #regulatesocialmedia #thesocialdelimma
Not done yet (obviously) but couldn't wait to show. That print is too 😍.!.
