Sneek peek at whats to come.

I am kind of obsessed with stripes right now, and also grey and so my friends here is a sneek peek at a new shirt I will be selling.

I also have a refashion peek for you also.  Who doesnt love a tailored man shirt?  Well my hubby has quite a few that he no longer wears so I am taking them and making them mine.  Here is the first of the theivery refashions.  Stay tunned I will post the after pic shortly.

 The flower girl dresses from behind.  These are my 2 little girls. H is on the left and L is on the right, they are 4 and 6.

 Dresses from the front.  From left L is 4, I is 1 and H is 6.

 M and A. I love this shot of them.  This is my little sister by the way.  I had so much fun making this dress for her.  It was a lot of work and heartach at times but seeing it finished and on her is just amazing!

And how gorgeous is she.  The ladies and Gents over at Le Studio Salon in Mesa are the ones responsible for her lovely hair and makeup.

 This D and S.  My little brother and his Girlfriend.  This is the bridesmaid dresses that I did.  This dress comes in Full length and with out sleeves.

Me and my kiddos.  My hubby was off picking up flowers so he missed the shot. From left to right.  L my baby is 2, then me Laura of course, L is 4, M is 8 and H is 6 years old.

My Adorable children again.  M. was the ring bearer and he took his job very seriously.  He even had an official ring bearer badge so...yeah, it was lagit.

The 70's are coming back

Doesn't Francesca look adorable in this dress?  I know it creeps H out that I name my dolls, but it makes it easier to differentiate.  I LOVE 70's looks right now.  They are totally making a comeback and I love the way this dress turned out. M is a fan of bringing me fabric and telling me to go creative, when she brought this I had to do something 70's inpired but still modern.  I am so happy with the way that it turned out and it was one of the easiest dresses I have ever made.  Thanks M you are so inspiring...and Trusting!

Fun Summer skirt

This is Francesca, I realize she is topless, I didnt want a shirt to take away from the skirt.  I just have to say how much I am in love with this skirt.  When M brought me the fabric and said make me something cute with this I hadnt invisioned it coming out as cute as it did.  I mean of course I would make something cute, but this skirt is so cute on I now have to make myself one. I am in love with it and so nice and cool during these hot Arizona summer months.  But it would also be adorable with leggings in the winter.

I am Terrible at taking Pictures

First things first, I am terrible at taking pictures.  These do the dress no justice, or my sisters body.

This is a dress I did for my older sister for a wedding she went to. It has a strapless sweetheart top with built in bra. The bottom is a bubble skirt and the back has a gold visible zipper. It is so adorable on her, I wish I had a picture of her in it dressed up.

All About ME!

Hello Blogger world. I am Laura Davis and this is my blog dedicated to my obsession...Alterations and Custom Sewing.  This is me and my outfit I made for a sewing contest, sadly I didnt win but I did get an adorable outfit out of it.  I am a stay at home mom of four, two boys two girls. I am married to me high school sweetheart and love of my life, we"ll call him H. I taught myself to sew at the age of eighteen and enlisted the help of my mother, who is a fantastic seamstress, her seams match up perfectly everytime Amazing! After learning/figuring out all we could I took some classes at the local Community College, they were awesome. A hop, skip and 8 years later here I am sewing for a living, or for shoe money.  I am pretty sure H hates my passion at moments but most of the time loves the fact that I sew like 90% of my clothes and 80% of our two girls.

I specialize in the alteration of all things impossible, adorable and fashionable.  I hope you enjoy the blog and all that goes on Behind the Seams.
