My Sewing Journey
Last winter I made my kiddo a jacket (that post is here), and was determined to make one for myself this year. I've been thinking about it for months, and knew I wanted to try making the Midway Bomber Jacket by Greenstyle Creations. The pattern is on sale this month, so what a great time... Continue Reading →
You may have noticed that I've been sewing a few sweaters, looking forward to the temperature dropping twenty degrees or so. Living in Arizona means we're still hitting 100 degrees (or close to) everyday. So, those sweaters I've made? They're sitting in my closet waiting also. Boho Fabrics has another great fabric stocking today! I... Continue Reading →

I posted recently about some new shorts that I had made the little (you can find that post here)... and realized that the majority of the photos were paired with the Slope Tank from Greenstyle Creations! This has quickly become a new favorite this summer and I figured another post was needed. You can find... Continue Reading →
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 →
This summer, I have plans to spend lots of time at the beach, pool, and a lake... which means I need a new swimsuit, right? After some thinking, I decided to use the Greenstyle North Shore Swimsuit for the bottoms and the Power Sports Bra for the top. I ordered some beautiful swim fabric that... Continue Reading →
