Hi all! I just recently made Simplicity’s 1360 dress using their pattern, and after trying it on to see how it fit, I realized that the dress would be way better with some inseam pockets. And I figured why not share it with you?
I am pregnant, and am ready to show the world! Well, at least my coworkers. After months of wearing baggy shirts, I’m ready to make a form-fitting dress with my long sleeve sheath dress tutorial. I want to show off all my new maternal curves. So today, we’re going to make a sheath dress, plain and unadorned, but one that fits to your body. Since I am pregnant and hoping to wear this for a little while yet, I’m going to add a little bit of room around the midsection to accommodate some belly growth. It’s still quite cold outside, so this one will adorn long sleeves. For those pregnant ladies out there, other dresses you can make that will grow with your bump include Simplicity’s 1360 dress, my Breezy Trapeze Dress Tutorial, and my Double V-Neck Boxy Dress Tutorial.
Today we will be venturing into the world of the raglan sleeve. Are you as excited as I am?! As you can see, I’m very happy to add a new sleeve type to my homemade sewing patterns! This tutorial will make a long sleeve raglan shirt with bands around both the neckline and bottom of the shirt. So, without further ado, lets get on with my raglan shirt tutorial!

Brrr!!! This was a cold, windy day!
I love to dress up, but must say that I have a hard time when it’s cold out. So, for my winter wardrobe, I decided to make this comfy and cozy sweaterdress with long sleeves and an elastic waistband. To add to the comfort factor, I added front pockets, because, honestly, who doesn’t love a dress with pockets? Now onto our comfy, cozy sweatdress tutorial!
You can also make a summer version of this dress using my Striped Summer Dress Tutorial.
Christmas is around the corner, and I made these vintage looking ceramic bird coasters for some lovely homemade gifts…
