Foto: Māmiņa no veciem vīra krekliem darina skaistus tērpus

Mākslas skolotāja un māmiņa Stefānija Millere (Stephanie Miller) pēc meitas laišanas pasaulē cīnījās ar pēcdzemdību depresiju un nespēja samierināties ar jauno māmiņas dzīvesveidu, raksta «Bored Panda». Tomēr kādu dienu vīrs Stefānijai uzdāvināja jaunu šujmašīnu, lai sieva arī mājās varētu turpināt radoši izpausties. Pavērojot dažādus video straumēšanas vietnes «Youtube» videoklipus par kleitu darināšanu, Stefānija drīz vien sāka pievērsties šūšanai.

«Pirms trīs mēnešiem mans vīrs centās atbrīvoties no vecajām drēbēm un pēdējā pilīte visam bija krekls, kuru vēl nesen biju uzdāvinājusi viņam Ziemassvētkos,» atceras Stefānija. «Es biju dusmīga uz viņu par vēlmi no tā atbrīvoties, bet tas bija sarāvies. Es paturēju to un vēl dažus kreklus cerībā, ka kaut ko no tiem izveidošu.»

Drīz vien tā arī notika un Stefānija sāka šūt! Māmiņa ir izveidojusi vairākus apģērba gabalus gan sev, gan meitām, kurām ļoti patīk viņas veidotie tērpi.

Ar paveikto Millere dalās sociālās vietnes «Instagram» profilā.

 

I love the look of rompers but we've had too many accidents standing in front of the toilet because the romper couldn't come off fast enough...and that is why I made her a shirt and short combo instead. I used the original bottom hem of the dress shirt to make the bottom of the shorts and added pockets on this one. I love this look but it wasn't a hit for her and she didn't want to wear it past the pictures, I guess you win some and loose some. ?‍♀️

Another refashion from one of @letsbuyutah's shirts. I let her pick out the shirt she wanted and I think this romper turned out so cute. This was my first time making shorts and it wasn't as hard as I thought it would be. #littleromper #littleromperbabes #sew #refashion #transform #transformation #diy #red #sewing #sewingproject #diy #mothermakes #newoutfit #mensdressshirttogirlsdress #mensshirt #mensdressshirts #daddysshirt

I wanted to show you this dramatic transformation of what these dresses started as and what they became. I love how much the color enhanced the look of these dresses. #mensdressshirttogirlsdress #beforeandafter #transform #transformation #sew #dyeclothes #dye #whitetoblue #whitetopink #diy #littlegirldress #mothermakes #girlsdress #newdress

I've loved making dresses for my little girls out of men's shirts because it is pretty fast and the transformation is always drastic. I tried so hard to keep my kids clean all day to preserve their dresses but she some how found nail polish and spotted her dress in blue the last hour of the wedding reception. I tried everything to get the spots out without success so now I'm thinking of tie-dying this dress blue. White is such a hard color for kids. #sewingproject #nopattern #transformation #repurpose #whitedress #flowergirl #littlegirl #littlegirldress #sew #sewing #weddingdress

My baby woke up early this morning so I sewed in the early morning hours. She was a good sport letting me try on the dress (only 2 time?) to cut and fit the sleeves. Once I made her a dress two years ago and kept fitting it on her to adjust the dress, by the time I was done she wouldn't wear it. I decided to not make my kids clothes at that point. Now they ask me to make them dresses and never want to take them off. It is much more rewarding. This shirt was her daddy's shirt that shrunk, @letsbuyutah. #sew #refashion #refashioned #refashionista #sewing #sewingproject #diy #beforeandafter #mothermakes #oldshirt #newdress #dresses #littlegirl #littlegirldress #onehour #onehourprojets #quickneasy #sewforfun #sewfun

I've loved transforming men's dress shirts into dresses for my girls. It is a faster way to finish a project because the buttons and hemming is already done on the shirt. Also, fitting clothes on little kids is so much easier than on myself. I made both of my girls pinafore dresses and it only took me a hour on each dress. The girls love their dresses and didn't want to take them off to sleep which made my tired mama heart swell. #pinaforedress #sewing #sew #refasion #transformation #beforeandafter #sewfun #mothermakes #diy #quicksew #quicksewing

I refashioned Jon's shirt (I bought it for him for Christmas but it shrunk the first time I washed it?) into a new dress for my little girl?. I got the idea from @cottonandcurls and @sarahtyau who are amazing seamstresses. She calls it her «Elsa» dress and wants to sleep in it.??
