How To Make a 3D Mask With No Pattern

Hello Lovelies, Happy New Month. I hope you all had a great weekend.

I haven’t posted for a while because of my classes, but I’m done with most of my class so, here I am. If you follow me on YouTube, I have uploaded several tutorials, which I will be sharing with you soon.

I made this 3D mask last year during the pandemic. It was requested by one of my subscribers so, I decided to do a tutorial on it. It’s a bit easy to make. I used an African print cotton wax fabric (Ankara)  for the outside of the mask and light cotton for the lining.  I also used fusible interfacing to wedge in between for protection.  I uploaded the tutorial on how to make it to my youtube channel. The video is also added below.

Let me know what you think.

DIY Old Denim To Origami Bag

Today’s tutorial is on how to turn your old denim into an origami bag.  I intended using denim for the whole bag then I realized I don’t have enough denim fabric.

So, I used some fabric scraps I have in my scraps stack. It’s an Ankara fabric (cotton/wax).

Let me know what you think.

DIY – How To Sew A Simple Shift Dress

Hey Beauties, This beautiful dress sew-along video is about a red dress I saw on Fashion Nova. A few weeks ago, I was shopping for my daughter’s junior prom dress and I decided to check the women dresses section to pick one or two dresses for myself.

I saw this simple dress (image below) but I couldn’t find my size. So, I decided I was going to make it. Lucky for me, on one of my trips to Joann Fabric I saw a red chiffon that had one and half yard left on the roll. It was by 60″ and I knew right away that it will be perfect for the dress so I bought it.

Here are the modifications I made:

  1. I used a round neck instead of a V neck.
  2. I also double the size of the sleeve cuffs.
  3. I used a thicker (cotton) lining instead of knit.
  4. Finally, I added a little length to it too.

Here is the Part 2 of the tutorial

Hi Lovelies, Recently I’ve been trying to get back to sewing. It has always been my therapy when I have so much going on around me and I need to think or when I need a space to myself.

Last week, I made this simple kimono top. It took me less than 30min to finish it. It was that simple.

I used an Ankara fabric I bought the last time I was in Nigeria. I love the fabric color and combination. If you’re interested in making the kimono top, you can give it a try and let me know how it goes. Youtube tutorial Here

DIY How to Make Girl’s Dress/Top

Hello lovely people, hope your day is going well. I made my younger daughter this knit dress/top few weeks ago using the fabric I used in making a knit maxi dress. When she saw the dress on me she told me she loved the fabric a lot.

After checking my stack of fabrics, I realized I only had 1/4 of a yard left so I decided to use my maxi dress to make the dress for her.

She was so precise about what she wanted and also that she wanted a hoodie on it.  It was a surprise for her because I know she’ll never think that I could convert my dress for her since I just made this dress.

By her looks in the photos, she really did love the dress/top.

This tutorial is on how I converted my maxi dress to a top/dress for her. Let me know what you think.

DIY Simple Knit Maxi Dress Tutorial

Hello Beautiful people. I made this maxi dress a few weeks ago. It’s a very simple dress that you could easily make within an hour.

I used the bodice I made in the tutorial of  How to draft a simple knit bodice for this maxi dress. When I was cutting it, I had to cut it on the right side so I could easily align the lines of the pattern design on the fabric.

Fabrics with lines could be a little intimidating to work with because you have to perfectly align the lines. If not, it will look crazy when you’re done no matter how beautiful the fabric is.
