Sewing patterns coming soon!

I made another shirt! 💙🙌🏻 This one is made from the geranium dress pattern by @madebyrae at the top length for my 9 year old daughter. I just bought the pattern yesterday & we bought some fabric for a dress, but then I decided to do a practice run first & I figured the top would take less fabric than a dress. Plus, she doesn’t like to wear dresses except on Sunday, so this is likely to get more wear anyway. 🤷🏼‍♀️ This one is made from some fun vintage yardage I got about a year ago from @wildthymelucketts and a few spare wooden buttons I had on hand. (And a hidden snap at the top because I only had 3 buttons & it called for 4, so I moved the placement, but put the top button too low. Of course. 😂) I love the way it turned out. The pattern & instructions were so well written & I got the expansion pack too, so I’m excited to try out all the options! Whoop whoop! ✂️✂️✂️ #katielewismakes #geraniumdress

Been sewing on my machine for 12 years. Just figured out where the tension dial is today. 🤦🏼‍♀️💯😂 #katielewismakes #geraniumdress

I made a shirt! 🙌🏻 Oh my goodness, I struggled with the muslin for this one so much. I started several months ago & got the kinks worked out. (I ended up adding 1 1/4” at the center back + on the collar which fixed the issues I was having with the sleeves/shoulders feeling too tight. But I tried much more complicated adjustments before that. 🤦🏼‍♀️✌🏻) By then I just needed a break from it & then moving across the country took over my life. But then I started this cheery green one two nights ago & finished it the next day. 🤷🏼‍♀️ Still had some trouble with the inset, which I think I’ll hand baste next time. But I love the way it turned out. The fit is comfy & covers up the fact that I’ve had 3 children nicely without looking too maternity shirt. (I hope! 😂) And I love all the details on it. Already got more fabric for another one! ✂️🎉 #katielewismakes #wikstentova

Bought these mini loaf pans on clearance like two years ago. Kept telling myself I’d bake tiny loaves of banana bread in them & forgot to use them every single time. Then found them yesterday when searching for methods of cookie delivery & voila! Living their best life. Kinda like real life, ya know? Sometimes we’ve just gotta loosen up on the banana bread we think we’re gonna make of our lives & make room for the cookies we’re meant to be. ❤️🍪 #katielewiscookies #katielewisdailyshare
