I loved 2 make lounging pants 4 my son .He passed away a few months ago so now I have time 2 sew some skirts 4 myself .
I have been making pajamas for my grandkids. I have a few more to go. They are fun and the kids love wearing them!
My favorite garment to make or make over would definitely be dresses! I prefer to make my own since I can customize it to my exact specifications, but I occasionally do buy a manufactured dress if I really love the fabric. Then I just need to make it perfect for me, like increasing the darts at the waist and shortening the length, for example.
I love to make vests for myself. They are the perfect cover up for Wisconsin winters…not too warm…not too cold….just right!
Dresses dressed and more dresses. Thy r so comfortable to me. I love wearing them!
I love making clothes for my husband and I and coats for our fur baby.
Love to make little girl dresses!!
I love making and remaking little girl dresses. Use a pattern, combine different patterns, add a skirt to a t shirt for a dress, remake t shirts into tunics for little girls, anything I can think of ! DRESSES!
I love making and making-over little girl dresses. It’s a good thing, too, since my granddaughter is growing like crazy. Make a dress-remake it into a top or add a fancy bottom band! Fun for me and her.
I like making scarves!!
I love to make and remake tshirts. I have a favorite tshirt that I took apart and made into a master pattern. From this master pattern, I can make any style of tshirt imaginable. Then I am free to embellish it, embroider it, quilt it, etc.
Retro dressing gowns/robes! I simply LOVE RETRO!!!
Aprons. My passion is aprons. Don’t understand why they went out of fashion!
I like making skirts for my daughter and her dolls.
Right now, I’m enjoying making children’s sweatshirts.
I love to make fashionable garments for ME! And, I’m now getting into historical gowns with all the trimmings. But, as a lady “of a certain age” I need good, fashionable patterns that fit me NOW! Not the me when I was 25! Would love this book! Thanks for the contest. You sewists ROCK!
I love to make dresses and makeover them by the length of the skirt, type of sleeve, and or the type of embellishments. It is really fun to try different techniques on one pattern to see how they turn out.
I love making children’s and adults aprons and robes!
I love sewing dresses for my nieces and me too.
I love to take basic t’shirts or other garments and add machine embroidery to make them special!
I love to make just about anything for my family- dresses, shorts, tops. I love remaking t shrits for myself, also
I love making skirts because there is so much variety in design – length, layers, fabrics, etc.
My favorites are t-shirts and aprons.
I love to make vintage aprons for my self and matching ones for my daughter.
Dresses!
My favorite item to sew is little romper sets for my grandkids.

I love to make Fall Carnival/Halloween Costumes for my grandchildren! My oldest now 13 yrs. of age won a Halloween Costume Contest when he was three with his purple dinosaur costume! Other years he placed with his green frog costume and his cowboy costume! I also love to make bassinet covers specially for my granddaughter.

I like to make dresses for my granddaughters.
I love making jackets and vests.
Would just like to wear something that fits me. Haven’t sewn clothes in years but can’t find anything ready made to fit me. Especially pants: dress, casual, jeans, pretty much all. And, of course, blouses, skirts, etc.
I have been making my three grandsons boxer underwear for years. They love that I can make them longer and they can lounge in them or shorter for true boxers. And the best part is that no one else will have print they have.
Love making party dresses. I’ll take the same basic princess seam dress and change neckline, hem style, sleeves, fabric, etc, and no one realizes it’s the same patttern.
Into making fleece jackets, fun!
Love making clothes for my granddaughter and now with another granddaughter on the way, I have double the fun!
Sewing dresses for my daughters years ago was my passion. I enjoyed sewing their confirmation dresses & prom dresses. My big project was sewing my sister’s wedding dress 25 years ago! Now sewing clothes for my 2 grandchildren have been my priority. I just wish I had more time to do more!
I like to make easy jackets.
My favorite thing to make is pyjama bottoms and doll clothes.
Pajama pants out of fleece! Super easy and super cozy!
