I love cats, so its no wonder one of my favorite dress is a cat dress. Unfortunately its white-based, so I am deathly afraid of wearing it around the kids. It also doesn’t fit terribly well. So I decided to remake this. It fits quite well! 🙂 It has really nice deep pockets. I’ve noticedContinue reading “The Cat Dress”

Belle inspired dress
I didn’t know that I was making a belle inspired dress until I was almost done with it. This is one little K commissioned during a play-sewing-date with one of my sewing friends and daughter. She chose the fabric from my stash, options in the tea party dress pattern, and the decoration at the end.Continue reading “Belle inspired dress”
Burberry “Inspired” Coat
I finished my first creation of 2017 in March! Its been an insane 2 months – littered with many episodes of flu/cold/tummy bugs and two travels without the kids. So this coat took a while. I first caught sight of the pattern Lekala 4298 years ago. The inspiration itself  was not a coat I’d normally buy,Continue reading “Burberry “Inspired” Coat”

Knitted Sweater
Whenever I go on a long drive, I bring a knitting project with me. I am a stereotypical Asian women driver, and hubby does not let me drive him. So on long drives, my hands are free to create! We took a trip to SoCal for a friend’s wedding in 2015 November and I castedContinue reading “Knitted Sweater”
Convertible boot splats
As a petite, shopping for those cute knee high boots are always a pain. Its rare to find something that doesn’t gap 3-4 inches on the opening – which makes us look even shorter. As a person who LOVES boots, and have about… 10 pairs of boots in regular winter rotation (vs 2 pairs ofContinue reading “Convertible boot splats”
Indigo Sashiko Dress
I made this dress during the summer, but never quite had the chance to take photos with it. I found this amazing fabric in Joanns a few years ago – it is a deep indigo rayon with thick Sashiko threads running through it. Indigo is not really the kind of color I wear, but thisContinue reading “Indigo Sashiko Dress”
Yellow Peasant Dress
I have a lot of summer dress posting coming up – even though it’s end of summer now! I’ve made quite a lot of quick dresses lately but haven’t gotten around for photos. This is a short peasant dress that also doubles as a top. To be honest, short dress and parenting does not matchContinue reading “Yellow Peasant Dress”
Linen Summer Coat
This is my second version of Vogue 8926 (first one here). It was supposed to be a dress – I simply extended the length to the knee. However, after finishing, it really didnt look right on me as a dress. So I unpicked the belt attached to the front, put two belt loop on theContinue reading “Linen Summer Coat”
The JueBeJue Logo
As briefly mentioned on my corset post, I have a logo! A very talented, fashionable and lovely friend P Â designed a logo for me based on my handle – JueBeJue. Its two Js together (for “Jue”s in my “JueBeJue”, and when you look at it side ways, it looks like a B – that standsContinue reading “The JueBeJue Logo”
