Sewing mamas!Calling all AmityMama's who like to sew! Do you make quilts, clothes, diapers, bags? Do you love to run your fingers through fiber? Can't get enough just sewing, but want to talk about it too? Come on in!
I finally finished up the very last of these gowns and such. Today I produced one more bra and 2 floral gowns. I totally love this floral As mentioned in previous sns's these were made originally from seam ripping a Blue Canoe Jane Medium Plus bra then I redrafted the arm scicle to add sleeves and played with the under bust band to do a shirt prototype. When I was happy with that I was able to convert it into the perfect nursing gown (by my standards). The under bust band on a blue canoe bra that gives support is a hidden underlayer on the gown thereby giving you the same comfort and support of you BC bra but in a gown form (plus the sleeves because I usually feel more comfortable with upper arm coverage).
I need to go get some packages ready to ship to some expecting mamas and then post the other floral gown fs. Then the rest of my day will be cutting out NC baby outfits
Thanks for looking mamas,
Sarah

Beautiful. Wish I was your size, I'd snap up that gown! Did you actually take apart your BC bra, or just eyeball it? I don't think I have the guts to deconstruct my brand new bra.
ETA: duh, I see you *did* deconstruct it. Hats off to you!

Actually I asked for a volunteer sacrafice One of the expecting mamas sent me her bra, I didn't have the heart to do it to one of mine. I'm really glad I did take it apart though because there were definitely a few curves and such I didn't 'see'. I was super duper careful and was able to serge her bra back together for her- I just couldn't bear to see it go to waste.
Ginnings if I had the energy I would but I don't. I really need to stop getting sidetracked on the inspirations and finish up my to-do list before baby decides to make the grand entrance!
Sarah<-----desperately trying not to make a maternity shirt ala Dehart twisted T, and then a nursing version too..............................
How much will you be selling the other floral gown for? It is really lovely. Maybe I need it!?? LOL. I actually don't have a nursing gown that I really like right now. But great, great job!

Its $40ppd, but I'm waiting on a response from another mama first. Pm me if you would like me to contact you if it is still available.
I just tried mine on and I just LOVE it, not trying to brag just so stinking excited!!!
Sarah<-----singing 'I feel pretty, oh so pretty..............'
cute sara! I bought one with the intent to do that but never got around to it! Now my boobs are small enough that I wear the organic cami one and I bought a few through a coop. I would have loved to do a nightgown like that! Great idea. Perhaps I will seamrip the medium bra I have but never wear

You are totally nesting aren't you? Look at all the work you are doing! You are one amazing Momma, wow! Great looking gown.
I wish I was nesting more- there is sooooo much to do. Must decluter, cook freezer meals, clean, sew sew sew sew sew sew. Instead I just mostly make lists.......................
That is awesome!! I didn't have a nursing anything when dd was nursing, that's one of the things I plan to have w/the next one, a whole nursing wardrobe.
Sarah, those look so comfy and snuggly! I have been so impressed with how methodically you are working through your list of things you want to have before the baby arrives. I bet you can't wait to be wearing those and snuggling with your newest little one.
