Craft Book Month: The Feisty Redhead + Rae Gun Ramblings


It’s time to catch up on some more of the Craft Book Month 2013 blog hop! Today we have two apparel projects from some of my favorite bloggers. 🙂

First up is Ashley of The Feisty Redhead! She tackled a project that many sewists consider a right of passage, which is the blouse from Gertie’s New Book for Better Sewing by Gretchen Hirsch (STC Craft). We love the microfloral print and trendy Peter Pan collar of this blouse.

 

Read more about Ashley’s discoveries on fabric covered buttons, button holes and more, here!

 

Next up is Marissa of Rae Gun Ramblings. She took on the challenge of a sweatshirt refashion, inspired by the book Subversive Seamster by Melissa Alvarado (Taunton Press). She stumbled upon this gem of a book when a friend accidentally left it in her sewing room. Oops!

Check out more pics of Marissa’s refashion, including pin tucks and poofy sleeves!

Hi, I’m Lindsay Conner, an author, modern quilter, editor, and founder of the Lindsay Sews blog. I’m a Baby Lock ambassador and Stash Books author who loves writing modern sewing and quilt patterns for beginners and weekend sewists! I live in Indianapolis, Indiana with my husband, son, and two loveable cats, Murph and Chloe. I’ve been crafting for as long as I can remember. As a kid, I saved my dollar bills for trips with my mom to Jo-Ann Fabrics, where I’d find new floss for friendship bracelets or mini cross-stitch kits. Because my mom has always shared my love for crafting, she bought me my first sewing machine, a Hello Kitty Janome.
