Designers: Where are they now? Susan from Living With Punks

Hello, Hello! Wow, my short appearance on PR&P seems like ages ago, but I'm so honored that the girls asked me back to participate in this unique year! Loving the concept! Since you last saw me, I have kept busy with my own blog, Living with Punks, and I freelance for a few other sites. I have shifted gears a little in the sewing area, trying to focus more on sewing for my home and interior design. I do still sew for my kids, although that has slowed down a bit, especially since my twin boys are 12 and mom-made clothes just aren't cool anymore ;) I'd love for you to check out what I've been up to!

I've completely redesigned my 6 year old daughter's room and basically DIY'd everything! Even the Diamond Tufted Headboard... boy what an undertaking that was, but I have to say it was one of the most rewarding projects I have completed to date. I documented all my steps and posted every step and added tutorials for the projects that I thought people would want to know. For instance... Ruffled Euro Shams. I love these beauties and the fabric is to die for! I found a new love while redesigning her room, and the fever started.... I have slowly moved from room to room and am currently working on my boys' rooms. You can see a few more spaces I have completely redone (and documented along with tutorials) below: Our Living Room Makeover And, for all you sewing enthusiasts, my most recent reveal: The Sewing Space .

I can't say that it always looks this clean (like, ever), but at least I documented it this one time ;) Here are a few of my most recent clothing sewing projects. This one was designed for the latest issue of STYLO...

 

This was my latest favorite summer project where I made a pair of shorts using just 2 bandanas I feel so blessed to be a part of this fun series and to have been asked to participate 4 years ago with PR&P. I absolutely love the heart and spirit of Project Run & Play and hope that it inspires you as much as it inspires me! And, I can't wait to pick out your free tutorial.... can anyone guess what it will be?
