Niki's Knots

Hello All! I am starting this blog to kind of document my triumphs and failures as I get into the world of seamstressing and cosplay. I've been sewing since I was 8 years old. I started out hand sewing clothes for my dolls from scraps of old clothes. I've been making clothing on and off since. I recently decided to seriously pursue harder clothing and accessories. I do make and sell custom pieces, but that's not what this blog is for. Message me or go to my site for more information.

Finished outfits!!

My Yule babies. I had to alter the dress bodice a bit to fit as the pattern is more for adults. Excuse the tie knot, I had to follow a YouTube tutorial to tie it! All in all, I'm happy with the final product.

Christmas Princess

This was a fun project. I learned a couple of new techniques (like he bodice gathering) and I got to work with a different kind of material with the shawl. The "feathery" material sheds like crazy, by the way. The dress pattern is Butterick 5882. The cloak is Butterick 3345.
