Kente Off-Shoulder

10.06.2016

Hi Loves!! Hope you guys had a wonderful week. Sorry I've been quiet for a couple of weeks.. I'm currently recovering from a major surgery (Myomectomy), to remove some fibroids I've had for over 5 years. I'm doing and getting better each day, I'm just glad that the surgery is over and I can go back to being ME! Healthy Me! Fibroid is something that A LOT of women have and some don't like to talk about it.. But thanks to the women that have shared their experiences so others can learn about and be prepared to deal with their Fibroid. If anyone wants to talk or have any questions about Fibroids, Myomectomy, or anything else, feel free to reach out to me.

Fabric Uses Guideline

2.17.2014

Came across this on Pinterest and thought I'd share.

It's a general guideline for choosing fabric to use for different garments. This is very helpful especially for sewists that are still learning the different types of fabric and what you can do with them. This was created by Feathers Flights.

It is amazing that this is my last blog post of the year 2013.. Looking back to the beginning of the year, I have come a long way and have grown a lot.

My First DIY Aso Ebi

6.27.2013

Vogue Pattern 8849 Misses'/Misses' Petite Dress

Hi Loves..

First I'd like to explain what Aso Ebi means... Aso Ebi are outfits made from matching fabric to be worn by a group of people (family/friends) to an event. The event could be a wedding, engagement, birthday party, naming ceremony and so on.. The Aso Ebi fabric are chosen by the celebrant. I wore my Aso Ebi to one of my best friends' Nigerian traditional wedding. Another Aso Ebi was sewn (by Me) for the wedding ceremony and reception the next day (post coming soon).
