Last December, I was interviewed by Adrienne of Real Life: Live & Unscripted.
We talked about how I got started sewing, favorite patterns, crazy sewing mistakes, and more! It was a fun conversation, and Adrienne was a great interviewer.
Though you all know me as Pirouette, yes, my first name is Krystal (just so there’s no confusion! 🙂 ).
I know summer is winding down, but I really want to crank out a few more dresses before it gets chilly. What I’m working on right now is Butterick 4977. The outer fabric is a sweet find I lucked upon in dusty old Jo-Ann Fabrics near my job. I was just browsing around the store…
