...I can't stop the puns guys.
Woo! We have been getting ready for our move so sorry for the radio silence! But tonight I managed to squeeze in two easy quick fixes, and I'm really hoping I can get into a more involved project this weekend.
I apologize in advance for the messy desk and mediocre pictures!

I got this cute little semi-crop top from Forever 21. I LOVE lemons! Problem: there was a really tight piece of elastic at the waist (the folded up area in the bottom of the photo). I seam ripped it out and then just re-sewed the original hem closed again! Super simple and the top is way better now. |

This tank was from a post I did on here a while ago; I had simply cut out the sleeves and called it done. The edge of the armhole was still serged so I was good to go. But over time, it had started to wear a little and was starting to look frizzy and unprofessional. |

So I just took this serged seam, and folded it in to the wrong side of the top, and sewed it down! The armholes look much tidier and nicer now. |
Easy peasy bacon cheesy! I hope I'll be seeing you guys this weekend with something a little more exciting :)
Love,
