My Suit and Tie

by Venita Elaine, in category Coats and Wraps, D.I.Y., Fashion, SKirts

Suit and Tie – yes please and thank you. I participated in a sewing challenge focused on women in suits. I was assigned McCall’s M7997 view B. This is actually a suit dress and I had the option to hack it if I wanted. Feeling overwhelmed as I alway do when I participate in challenges… Read More

The Sapporo Coat

Sapporo Coat - Papercut Patterns

This pattern came all the way from New Zealand and wow it’s worth every dime. The Sapporo Coat by papercut has uniquely structured lines and angles. Honestly, that’s what caught my eye.

Easy Trench Coat – Simplicity 8554

by Venita Elaine, in category Coats and Wraps, D.I.Y., Fashion

I needed a nice transition coat for the season and this Easy Trench Coat – Simplicity 8554 did the trick. We don’t have true season’s here so I don’t have the need for the stomp down blizzard, snow, sleet, and torrential rain kinda coat. Well, maybe not yet but there is this thing called “Climate… Read More

Tie Dye Denim Kimono

by Venita Elaine, in category Coats and Wraps, D.I.Y., Fashion, Tops

Baaaaaaby – This jacket right here! I was asked (totally flattered) by Michelle @thatblackchick if I would be interested in making a garment for the September/October issue of Sewn Magazine.  Give me a minute to think about this – I mean I am in such demand that my personal assistant manages my time and scheduled appearances.   The… Read More

Technicolor Bomber Jacket

by Venita Elaine, in category Coats and Wraps, D.I.Y., Fashion, Tops

Butterick B6181 I made this in June as a lightweight summer jacket but something about it screamed fall so I’ve been held on posting this one till now.  The fabric is from my stash and it’s a lovely rayon print, but the sad news is that it wouldn’t let me be great😊.  It raveled to… Read More

About Me!

I am Venita Elaine of SewVeStyle. I learned to sew at a very early age but like many things life got in the way and sewing was set aside. I am back and I am excited about the endless possibilities to transform fabric into wearable fashion. I am not a professional seamstress or stylist but I work hard and I take great pride in the items that I share with you. Each and every item I make is a labor of love and a source of pride and accomplishment.
