No, this hasn't turned into a butchery blog - rather this is a guest post by Kristiann Boos, aka Ms Victory Patterns, showing you how to make your own pressing aids. If you want something a bit more professional looking than my rolled up towel trick, Kristiann will explain how to make your own... A tailor's ham is a helpful little cushion that is used when pressing curved seams, such as a bust or a hip seam. You can also use a tailor's sausage to slip into a sleeve to press open that hard to reach seam. Use this tool at any point where your seam won’t lay flat. To make your own, here’s what you’ll need... Materials List: Thick cotton canvas Sawdust for stuffing (you can also use soft wool or scrap knit fabrics) Scissors Regular thread Upholstery thread Hand sewing needle Transfer paper Tracing wheel Download and print out these patterns: Tailor's hamTailor's sausage 2) Place pieces right sides together. 3) Match dart seams and fold darts in opposite directions to reduce bulk along the edge.

And sometimes I find him trying on her dresses and headbands, just because mommy made them and I’m making a fuss over them. He wants in on the action too. Today is all about him. And a new boy idea. So, I made him a little baseball style tee, made from 2 old Tshirts. (This style is just as darling on girls too. And the little nut was as happy as ever, to have something new that I created all for him.

And if you look closely, that little submarine is appliqued right to the shirt…….from some of the Tshirt scraps... You know those boys, they need something comfy to go exploring in. Tshirts are perfect for that. Homemade ones are even better.. A great 2 color baseball-style Tee…….great for the little guys. And because the shirt is made from 2 old Tshirts, there was no hemming involved. Much simpler. Would you like to create your own Baseball Style Tee?

The DOUBLE-LAYER Square Circle Skirt. How has your post-Halloween sugar detox been going? I know, I have posted a trillion Halloween related posts/comments/updates this year. And here I go again, asking how it all wrapped up for you. Whew, are those of you who could care less about Halloween so happy that holiday is over?!! ;) Onto something non-holiday related. Like sewing. For you or some little girls you know. Remember how I made this incredibly simple Square Circle Skirt that literally takes minutes to make? Even though the length is so uneven all the way around…….it works great with leggings. So, it was Chloe’s turn for a new skirt. So instead of the one square with a circle cut out in the middle, I cut out two that were exactly the same size.

And I’m not sure what’s excites me more……dressing up a one year old with something I’ve made OR the actual skirt. Nothing beats a non-restrictive comfy knit skirt for your little one. But can you imagine this skirt just a little longer? Easy peasy. See you soon! -Ashley p.s.
