Another year, another unapologetically neon floral, fruity lingerie set! 🍒🌸🌼 A fit refresh using the Black Beauty Bra - with flexi wires for a comfy, more relaxed feel. I also lined the cups with silk satin … and I’m never going back 😂✨ #sewsky #lingeriesewing #bramaking #brasewing

The embroidered lace has neon orange and pink cherries and flowers intertwined with neon green leaves.A closeup of the back of the Fluorescent Floral bra on a white background.

Verdict? Delicious! For those unfamiliar, these #hotcrossbuns are eaten around Easter - best toasted with a dollop of butter. I make mine with spiced brioche dough (cinnamon, nutmeg, cardamom, ginger, allspice, cloves, black pepper) and fruit: raisins, currants, blueberries, cherries & cranberries.

I made a starter pack for other sewists migrating over from meta-based apps. Includes home sewists, independent pattern designers, and some fabric merchants. If you have adds, please share them with me so we can grow the list! #sewsky #garmentsewing go.bsky.app/TcArzsP

🕵️😼 Itty Bitty Kitty Trench 🙀🕵️ (Repost) My love for this trench coat is inversely proportional to my cat's love for it. 😍📉😾 I sewed this back in Jul '24 to match my Drea Trench Coat. My cat was very displeased with me. There was much consoling with treats post photo-shoot 😳🫱🐟😸 #taroandtonto
