This has been a much requested post from the readership, so I’m happy to say that I’ve finally had time to post it! Last year, during my Sew Your Kibbe Challenge series, I did monthly wrap ups with pattern suggestions. This got to be feeling a bit much like overkill by the end of the … More Sew Your Kibbe: Spring 2020 Pattern Picks for the Kibbe Types
December reflections and roundup summary goes here. In the meantime, here’s what’s been going on around the sewing blogosphere… Merriam Style’s YouTube channel continues to provide interesting Kibbe related content including: Wedding dresses for the body types Bone Structure Test for Body Geometry Aly Art finishes her great series with a videos about makeup for … More Sew Your Kibbe Challenge – December Round Up
November has been one of those months that has flown by entirely too fast. In my recent post about life events, I sort of delved into how crazy things have been, but this month feels like the crazy has been dialed up quite a bit. I’ve been able to sew a bit, though not as … More Sew Your Kibbe Challenge – November Round Up
October has been a crazy month – it’s flown by! And, I actually sewed! I was able to post a McCall’s top that was mostly worked on last month, as well as working on my forever UFO, the teal Burda trench coat. I started this project in 2016, and only just got around to working … More Sew Your Kibbe Challenge – October Round Up
September has been an interesting month in that, I sewed! I mean, not a lot, but a sewing pattern did make it out of the envelope. Sad that this is what’s making me excited. It’s not enough to be close to a finished garment yet, but it’s something. I’m still trying to figure out how … More Sew Your Kibbe Challenge – September Round Up
Ok, so perhaps it’s not all quite so dramatic as the historical image of paper being defiantly nailed to a church door, but it does seem there is quite a bit shaking down in the style typing world at the moment, and that a splintering of factions is imminent. Blog followers may recall that I … More 95 Style Theses
August has flown by and it has been a really interesting month for me. I wrote earlier in the year that this fall would be a time of transitions, and this seems very much to be the case. I’m still recovering a bit from the intensities of traveling this summer (I was gone for 5 … More Sew Your Kibbe Challenge – August Round Up
A few weeks back I wrote a post about modifications to the Kibbe system, but today I thought we could look at alternatives to the Kibbe Image IDs. There are several other style systems out there, not the least of which include Dressing Your Truth, Truth is Beauty, David Zyla, and Fantastical Beauty. All of … More Non-Kibbe Style Systems
Like June, July was obviously not a great month for me as far as Sew Your Kibbe progress went. I was home for about 3 days of the month, and of those I spent about half my time sleeping and the other half doing work related things. I’ll go more into my July adventures in … More Sew Your Kibbe Challenge – Semi Late July Round Up
Even though June wrapped up over a month ago, I wanted to keep up with my Kibbe Challenge update posts. Obviously, no Kibbe related sewing has happened the past five weeks (I’ve been traveling a lot and haven’t had any access to a sewing machine), BUT I did sew one thing in June that never … More Sew Your Kibbe Challenge – Super Late June Round Up
