Sewing for a 'New Body'!

It has been a while since I blogged about anything really. So I thought why not start one by sharing my recent makes. After four long years of studying, I have had almost no time to sew anything for my 'new' body. When I say 'new body' I mean, my completely ruined body after two children. 

From having 6 packs, I now have a bulgy tummy (diastasis recti) even though I have tried several different types of exercises to help strengthen the muscles. I do get questions about whether I am pregnant again. As much as I wish I was, I am not. It's just that the muscles in my tummy have forgotten to get back together. Seeking an expert advice is the next step.

See the tummy!
Having said that, being the Fashionista that I am and having finished my BA in Fashion Design, my current plans are to create my own wardrobe that compliments my 'new' body. So here is a dress I recently made. The fabric print is from my own artwork. 




This dress style and cut suits most body shapes. It has certainly taken the eye away from the problematic areas. In my case the tummy. Very glad with the end results and believe it or not, I have had requests by other moms to custom make a similar dress for them. 

All in all this, design worked. I have another garment that was inspired by this dress to show you in the next blog post.

Till then, have a pleasant week friends. OXOX

  1. You are such a great talent! I miss your posts and you'll always be bookmarked on my computer. I had the same belly issues as you, along with a hernia after only 1 child. The only thing that fixed it was a tummy tuck which I am still happy with. Please keep up the posts. Would LOVE to see you on Youtube!! Be well!

  3. Want a quick recommendation? In general, we're big fans of Teeter and Ironman tables, although the quality most of the tables we review seems to be improving ..

  5. any expect the manner in which individuals react is deliberate. 'Simply endure it' has been a typical suggestion for a considerable length of time. However at this point individuals can consider pain a hereditarily controlled issue.

  6. Sometimes I feel like if you just watch things, just sit still and let the world exist in front of you - sometimes I swear that just for a second time freezes and the world pauses in its tilt. Just for a second. And if you somehow found a way to live in that second, then you would live forever
