Okay, I'm embarking on a mission. My mission is to make a 50s style dress out of Captain America fabric. I'll post pictures!

Sounds cool! I'm thinking about making one of the dancers dresses from the Star Spangled Man song from the new Captain America movie for Halloween. My 4 year old niece wants to be captain america for halloween so I'm gonna take her trick or treating

Here's another women's piece I recently finished, the jacket from an EvaDress 1933 ensemble pattern:

I've got a review and more info at Pattern Review: http://sewing.patternreview.com/cgi-bin/readreview.pl?readreview=1&reviewnum=66284

Fully lined too! Very nice work Nick D! Excellent pick of fabric.

I will always think it is fantastic that there's so many tallented seamstresses here! This is one of my favourite treads when I'm in lack of sewing inspiration! Thumbs up to you all that show what you make :eusa_clap

Now, this is what occupied my eveningtime a couple of weeks ago.

I used Wearing Historys Art Deco pattern.

This is now my favourite combo! (More photos at my blog)

Its a beautiful skirt. Did you make the flap button opposite of the illustration intentionally? Did you knit the sweater?

Er, hm... *cough cough* No it was not really annything I was thinking of, when I lay out the pattern pieces it just felt natural to place the buttoning on the rigth in the same way as a normal side zipper... Good that you saw that, now I'm in need of one more
The sweater is a 30's pattern, I made it last year.

How cool, the side button detailing is very unique i love it.

Sorry if it felt like I was telling on you, I thought possibly the picture was flipped.

I recently whipped up a really simple chiffon 1920s dress - draped it on my dressform to suit the lace. It's delightfully cool and wonderful to wear!

Sorry for the big image, I can't seem to get it any smaller without going into Lightroom again . . .

HEY! Awesome!!! I love it as a skirt! And that sweater you made is fantastic!

 

[shazzabanazza]

I made this for a couple from my church. It's a vintage layette repro from Simplicity.
The dress is satin, the overlay is organza. The bonnet is satin. They're hand embroidered (sheesh!), and there's piping on the bodice, sleeves, pockets, and bonnet brim. The hem is scalloped.

Forgive the pic, it was taken with my cellphone.

Adorable! A job very well done indeed!

Lovley work everyone.
AuroraFisherman-What a clever use of that pattern and I love the sweater also.
vintageTink-Adorable. I have that pattern and am hoping to make a dress for my friends baby before she gets too big.
Sorry for all the pictures. This is a summer's worth of sewing and it's not everything. The green dress and the PJ's need belts.

 

[tuppence]

The red ones are pjs? They are wow

 

[Katinka von K.]

@deadpandiva :eeek: So many beautiful pieces. I especially love the pjs, the light blue blouse and the green dress. I´d wear that one instantly.

 

[kamikat]

Wow, DPD, you've been busy! Everything looks great! Are the pajamas a one piece garment? How arevthey to sew?

 

[hellsbellslolly]

I love home made everything, when I got married I had home made bunting that one of my bridesmaids made me, I'm hanging my "wedding bunting" in my new kitchen when its done. Every time I see it I feel so chuffed to have such thoughtful and fabulously talented friends. I also made home made jam for my wedding favours too.

All the outfits and dresses on here are just WOW - gosh I wish I could sew properly! You girls looks amazing

 

[MarieAnne]

Nice clothes. By my favourite is your smile; you look so very happy!

 

[AmateisGal]

I love the blue dress, DPD! Gorgeous!

The amount of sewing you've done puts my sad attempts to shame! I've been looking for a pattern for a dress with a neckline just like your brown floral one 3rd from bottom. You've inspired me to get sewing for autumn, since summer's definitely over here.
