Make Baby Stuff Ciel mes bijoux ! - Couture Le Rossignol Milanais, plus connue sous le nom de Bianca Castafiore, possède un puissant coffre qui n’offre pas toujours qu’une voix de soprano. En effet, deux raisons peuvent déchaîner les hurlements de la Castafiore : les journalistes lorsqu’ils font référence à sa corpulence, et, lorsque celle-ci perd ses bijoux. Si l’on ne peut brider la liberté de la presse, il est regrettable que Bianca n’ait jamais pensé à avoir une trousse à bijoux pour y ranger ses trésors. Un tracas de moins pour sa camériste. Ha oui ? Heureusement il existe un remède pour les causes désespérées : la trousse à bijoux. La trousse à bijoux est un objet très personnel, qui devient vite indispensable et qui accompagne sa propriétaire de longues années. Pour télécharger le tuto on clique ici.

retro mama Made my own Mod Cloth dress I saw this dress on Mod Cloth months ago, way before it was warm enough to wear, and thought, "Wow, that's a unique design. What a weird combination, actually. But it's cute! So I bought some grey cotton for like $3/yard at JoAnn, used some ivory lace I already had, and added four (weird, in my opinion) two-hole buttons with the metal hole grommets. I did not have the right pattern at all, so I had to modify one (Butterick B4915, now out of print). I've had this problem twice before and both times ended up just sort of modifying this pattern, I think, when cutting. That piece would be the top, gathered into the bottom and neckline, and I also cut a smaller piece for the lining. I added some vertical tucks to my bodice as well as the gathers over the cups. What's funny is, I thought this was a weird color combination, but shortly after I had cut this dress out I saw another, very similar one from Lulu's: How megasimilar is that? Update: seen here in our engagement pics!

I made this tutorial, because there really weren’t too many others out there, and I really like my method. The thought of pleating an entire piece of cloth back-and-forth and back-and-forth makes my hands feel all full and frustrated. My way is not that way. I would like to introduce you to the recycled Cheerios box method, in which a cardboard strip does most of the thinking work and the whole thing is laid flat rather than folded up in your hands. Materials: fabric: your desired height x 3 times your desired width. Step 1: cut your cardboard strip Cut your cardboard into a long, thin strip. Step 2: the first press Use light starch for all pressing. Lay your fabric on your ironing board so that the short edge is parallel with the sides of the board the long edge falls down in front of you. Step 3: the second press Remove cardboard and flip your work over. Step 4: the pleat press Remove the cardboard and flip your work over (again!). Taa-daa!
Fabric Labels Tutorial Many people have asked me how I make my labels so I have decided to make this little tutorial including pictures and any little tips that I have learned along the way. You will find that making your own labels is quite simple and much cheaper than purchasing custom labels. Pour yourself a cup of tea and enjoy. Materials needed:computer, graphics program (I used photoshop) & inkjet printerregular printer paperiron-on transfer paperutility knife, cutting mat & metal rulerribbon (I used 1/2 inch natural cotton twill tape)iron & ironing boardscissors Step 1: Design your image using your program of choice working with a resolution of 300ppi for a clear image. Step 2: Print your labels. Step 3: Cut out the images preferably into long strips using your utility knife, cutting mat and ruler. Step 4: Iron the transfer onto the ribbon. Step 5: Peel off the backing paper. Step 6: Use them! You could also make laundering instruction labels, and quilt labels using this same method!
