My Sewing Journey
I tend to fall into habits in many aspects of my life. This happens in sewing too; when I like a pattern, I make a million of that same thing. But, I'm trying to venture out. I have a couple of go to shorts patterns for my 3.5 year old and wasn't sure if I... Continue Reading →
Hello friends! I hope you are all well and are staying home (unless you are essential-and for that, THANK YOU) and healthy. I work in public health, so this is incredibly important for me! At Boho Fabrics, everyone is hoping you all are able to find some time to sew in addition to all your... Continue Reading →
Y'all, I think I've found my new favorite comfy hoodie/sweatshirt! The Nova by Sinclair is a great relaxed raglan that is perfect in French Terry and Sweater Knits! I've made three and am going to tell you all about them today! I started with a crew neck version to check fit. I first went with... Continue Reading →
I reeeally like cardigans. My goal is to try multiple cardigan patterns this fall/winter. The first one of the season is here. I really like long cardigans, so opted to find another longer, knee(ish) length. I had picked up the Harper Cardigan by Sinclair Patterns this summer when it was still free on the website....

I had the opportunity to join The Pattern Emporium in the testing of one of their latest patterns. I had not tested for them before, but I loved the process! Plus, I got a couple of gorgeous new tops out of the deal. 🙂 The new pattern I tested was Hello Gorgeous. The other that... Continue Reading →
Last summer, my mom gave me a long sweater that didn't quite fit her right, and I wore it ALL. THE. TIME. So, I figured I needed another for this winter. I knew exactly what pattern I was going to sew up, too. I had snatched up the Sunday Cardigan by Greenstyle Creations this summer... Continue Reading →
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 →
Tailor Made Blog is hosting this year's BRAugust challenge on Instagram. The idea is to post a photo of a bra (or undies) that you made each day of the month. I had never heard of it until a fellow sewing friend, Alex, mentioned it. Alex dove into making a ton of bras and I finally... Continue Reading →
You would think I lived in an area that wouldn't still be reaching the 100's for another month since I've already started sewing sweaters. I couldn't resist when this fabric came in! Boho Fabrics just stocked this new hacci sweater knit (among others), and it is glorious! It's great for adults and kids. The scale... Continue Reading →
