25.01.2022 Love a good #thriftflip Client just dropped this one off! It’s an old Qantas Air Hostess Uniform that she picked up from St. Vinnies I’ve been asked to repurpose this piece for a new look. Excited to give it a revamp and see the outcome!!! Loving that print too! #sewing #lounge #sewingroom #sew #diy #sewingproject #thriftflip #learntosew #fabric #quilting #sewingstudio #dress #sewingforthesoul #sewingaddict #henmachtgl #sewinglove #memade #sewingforkids #sewersofinstagram #isew #handmadewithlove #design #makersgonnamake #sewistsofinstagram #sewsewsew #craft #sewingmachine @ Cairns Alterations & Sewing Studio

24.01.2022 The Qantas Hostie dress #thriftflip (convert dress into skirt) My Client found this little number at St. Vinnies and wanted to give it new lease on life and revamp! Made this cute little skirt from the dress and incorporated the existing pocket. Some patchwork repair (the uniform had already lived a long life and had a hole in the front that needed to be repaired) Customer was happy with the finished result. #sewing #dress #sewingroom #sew #diy #sewingproject #thriftflip #learntosew #fabric #quilting #sewingstudio #dress #sewingforthesoul #sewingaddict #henmachtgl #sewinglove #memade #sewingforkids #sewersofinstagram #isew #handmadewithlove #design #makersgonnamake #sewistsofinstagram #sewsewsew #craft #sewingmachine @ Cairns Alterations & Sewing Studio

15.01.2022 This comfy dressing gown was made for one of my lovely long time clients who wanted a natural fibre dressing gown but couldn’t find the perfect material she was looking for in any of the fabric stores. After thinking outside of the box, she came to me with a white Bamboo Cotton blanket she’d bought and asked me to whip something up for her! So I got to whipping and created this.... complete with some Vintage buttons from my collection that I probably saved from the 70’s ...can’t wait til she picks it up. happy Friday!!! #sewing #white #handmade #sew #diy #sewingproject #fashion #hen #fabric #quilting #robe #dressinggown #bamboocotton #sewingaddict #henmachtgl #sewinglove #memade #bathtime #sewersofinstagram #isew #handmadewithlove #design #makersgonnamake #sewistsofinstagram #sewsewsew #craft #m #sewingmachine #specialrequest @ Cairns Alterations & Sewing Studio
