Round up!

Oh my, my, I've missed you anonymous or fictional readers! I just wanted to pop in to let you know that I haven't dropped off the face of the earth. I've actually been spending time on a project round up! (insert whip noises here). I've been taking photos of a bunch of projects that I'm dying to show you! So come back around soon to check it out! Expect some fun skirts and shirts, aprons, pillows and even a chair. Feel the anticipation!

Re-shoes!

I'm totally enthralled with this idea by blogger Garbage Dress. She took a pair of plain, ugly (in my humble opinion) shoes and created these magnificent, runway ready, Alexander McQueen-esque beauties. Armed only with rhinestones, glue and her own creativity, she made magic.

Shoes before...

Hi!



Hi there and welcome to Your Own Personal Seamstress! I'm so pleased to meet you! My name's Haley, and I am very excited to bring you this site. I revel in fashion and beauty and believe both should be fun above all else. I look forward to sharing my work and inspirations with you. I hope you will get a taste of my personality and maybe even come away inspired to try something new with your look. Thank you for visiting my page and come back often to see what's new!

Today I was blown away by the beautiful fashions of New Zealand Designer Trelise Cooper. Check out her incredible summer line, inspired by medeival French markets. If this sounds amazing, wait until you see it here. Gorgeous! Can't you just hear the horses hooves clacking on the cobblestones of the village marketplace when you look at these?
