My Sewing Journey
I love French Terry. I like how soft the loops are on the inside and the way the two contrasting sides look when played up in a pattern. I have always considered French Terry a winter fabric, though, since it is thicker and warmer. When I had the opportunity to sew up this new Dusty... Continue Reading →
I did it! I finally made a romper. I'm probably late to the game, as rompers have been popular for some time now, but I finally decided to jump in. I have been eyeing the South Shore Romper pattern since it was released and was excited to try it out just in time for Ellie... Continue Reading →

On Thursday, I was trying to decide if I wanted to sew up a new dress for graduation on Saturday. I was eyeing the George + Ginger Facebook page, knowing that a new test was coming up for the updated version of the Drama Dress. Friday morning, I decided I was going to print off...
