Spinalcat's Crafty Adventures

Short sleeved Halla Stardust in RockerByeDestash cotton/Lycra zombie and brain prints. The sleeveless version fit really well through the shoulders but this has some extra width it seems. Probably something weird I did while doing the full bust adjustment. Size 18 with FBA, shirt length with pocket and color blocking. Halla Bliss dress in Zenith & Quasar diatom print athletic brushed poly. Contrast bands are heavy heathered ABP. I should have sized up in the waist and arm bands using the heavy ABP, but the yoke sits really nicely using it. Size 18 with gathered bodice and ruched waistband options. I think this is a half circle skirt?

Star insert kids Halla Stardust. Some small imperfections, but not quite as tricky as I thought it was going to be. Chibi Marvel cotton/Lycra and Cricut brand Marvel heat transfer vinyl from Joann Kids Halla Stardust with Luna inset (add on available separate from main pattern). Lego Batman panel from MK Designs. Adult colorblocked Halla Stardust from the recent sewalong in the Halla group. Print from MK Designs. I finally learned how to do a real FBA.  Lucky Lingerie bra and Rad Panel Undies by Rad Patterns. Bra is reversible (see below). Cotton/lycra Star Wars prints from JoAnn.

CKC Gabriel's Reversible Shorts in quilting cotton from JoAnn, Zapdos/Team Instinct t-shirt in heat transfer vinyl Gathered skirt in JoAnn quilting cotton with knit waistband and lace trim, Gastly/Haunter/Gengar t-shirt in black glitter HTV Huge Snorlax plushie in minky-like fabric and fleece from JoAnn. Pattern and tutorial from Sew&Tell on YouTube. Kid joggers in some really soft plush/double minky type fabric with CL bands. Cupcake toppers cut on Cricut Pikachu and Eevee truffles inspired by MiscellaneousMao on Instagram. I underestimated how difficult these would be! I'm not used to working in this medium, lol. Birthday card made on Cricut

Rad Patterns Aphrodite dress with "more coverage" option. Solid is a really soft crepe jersey. It is very thin so I made the bodice fully lined. Hacked to attach half circle skirt. Floral skirt is DBP. I'm really excited to try more Rad patterns b/c many other pattern companies have disappointed me by failing at inclusivity (in moderating their Facebook groups and in their choices of models, etc.)

Summer Festival Sling from Swoon Patterns (free). Cottons from JoAnn and a whole lot of SF101 interfacing. Leggings fabric from Affordable Fabrics And More. Color blocked hacked raglan  Child Halla Stardust in MK Designs Lego Batman fabric (cotton Lycra). Leggings in MK Designs cotton Lycra. Necklace made from acrylic skins left over from pouring on canvas.

Raglan with ruched funnel collar and thumbhole cuffs from add-on pack. Hacked with color block tutorial from Hey June blog. The tutorial seems to be for a shorter length top, so I didn't follow it exactly. I used leftovers from Sly Fox Fabrics Baby French Terry. This was a test of the color blocking before cutting into some custom Cotton Lycra, but I really love the way it turned out. Greenstyle Creation's new Power Bra from the sew-along. Fabric Fairy supplex (magenta), JoAnn Superflex (black), and Fabric Fairy swim lining and powernet. I had to make some changes to add more support while I was making it.  38F size, drew my own "more coverage" line, but back cut down to 36 size. Two layers of Superflex in the back. Originally I used silicone backed strapping that came in the kit for the straps, (strappy cross back option) but it wasn't supportive enough and white threads of elastic started escaping from the seam. I redid the straps with 3/4" no rol...

Fit(ness) capsule challenge in the Greenstyle Creations Facebook group just ended. We had 1 month to sew at least 3 coordinating pieces of workout clothing. Super G capris with color blocking from Strides pattern, Solo tank, and Power Sports Bra (bra made before official start of challenge). Galaxy print swim fabric and purple burnout jersey from Cali Fabrics. Supplex from Fabric Fairy. This is a lighter weight very stretchy Supplex. The Solo tank came out perfectly...this was my first time doing binding. My coverstich machine handled the Solo binding and the decorative stitching on the capris really well. More Strides/Super G mash up capris (this time with pockets), petal back Xpress tank, No Show Thong. Supplex from Phee. This is a much heavier Supplex. YSS print accent from Zenith & Quasar. Circular knit from Phee for tank and thong. This is a light weight circular knit and I had some problems hemming it. Like, a lot of problems. My coverstich machine hated goin...
