Elloh Handmade: New Year's Eve Shirt
http://ellohhandmade.blogspot.com/2012/01/new-years-eve-shirt.html
Tuesday, January 3, 2012. New Year's Eve Shirt. So, the dress turned into a shirt. I'm really happy with it. Just not with the pictures.I remember when I had a great camera. I'll be honest, part of the reason I don't blog is because of the picture quality. Anyway, here's the random terrible photos. And the lace back with a better view of the color.

Elloh Handmade: October 2011
http://ellohhandmade.blogspot.com/2011_10_01_archive.html
Thursday, October 27, 2011. Let's address some things. I haven't been sewing very much. Since moving to Portland and becoming single (yes) I've had more to do and more people to meet. I've actually been able to make friends which is something I wasn't able to do at all in Utah for the whole year I lived there. I've also gotten involved in the design community here which is also something that Utah lacked. So I've been busy. So here's what I've been up to:. Now these bad girls are rock-and-roll ready.

Elloh Handmade: July 2011
http://ellohhandmade.blogspot.com/2011_07_01_archive.html
Friday, July 29, 2011. I've been toiling away with this new project. Some hours at night, some hours in the morning. Here's my final product:. Which came from this. I chopped off the top and constructed a pretty weak sweetheart top with three darts for each boob, attached it to the skirt with piping in the middle, added elastic to the top of the back piece for extra grip (and to avoid a booby show), AND added a zipper. P.S. you can't tell but the top is navy blue with white hearts on it :). I love baseba...

Elloh Handmade: December 2011
http://ellohhandmade.blogspot.com/2011_12_01_archive.html
Thursday, December 29, 2011. Back for New Year's Eve! Working on a dress for New Year's Eve. It's coming together slowly. So far I only have the basic shape done, but I'm thinking of doing some things with the sleeves, neckline, middle and back. The fabric is a weird, stretchy, shiny, nylon, lycra stuff. More weird stuff I got from a $5 bolt sale at Wal-Mart in Utah. Also, I just ordered a yard of this in cotton silk. For a scarf request. Very excited to see how it turns out. Posted by Lorena Guerra.

Elloh Handmade: It's been way too long...
http://ellohhandmade.blogspot.com/2012/04/its-been-way-too-long.html
Saturday, April 14, 2012. It's been way too long. So, I know.I've been really bad about posting. I haven't been sewing. I've been working way too much. I've also been trying to get out more and exercise more and turn my apartment into a workspace that inspires me to create more. I also hated blogging because I had such a hard time getting good photos of my projects. But, I recently bought a great camera, so I'm back in business! Posted by Lorena Guerra. April 14, 2012 at 4:25 PM. Thank goodness youre back.

Elloh Handmade: January 2012
http://ellohhandmade.blogspot.com/2012_01_01_archive.html
Friday, January 20, 2012. I love pleats. In everything. So I decided to take my basic shirt pattern, add some inches to the front, and get to pleating. First version turned out pretty good. I might decide to make my own bias tape and redo the neckline, since pleats add a little bit weirdness to a regular hem. I'm mostly glad the pleats are all even and it's wearable. Love the green color. Next, I think, is my first patternless knit shirt. Posted by Lorena Guerra. Tuesday, January 10, 2012.

Elloh Handmade: September 2011
http://ellohhandmade.blogspot.com/2011_09_01_archive.html
Friday, September 30, 2011. So here it is. My lace top. I'm happy with it, but I'll have to find out how it fits into my wardrobe. All I had were strips of scalloped edge lace that I overlapped and sewed together so the scallops create a layered look. I love it with the cardigan. It was a pain to hem around the arms and neck but worth it. This week was crazy. Expect more sewing next week and disregard my unmade bed in the background! Posted by Lorena Guerra.
