My Sewing Journey
I love when I discover new fabrics and companies, especially a small business like Sew Dynamic Fabrics that is a great source for recycled fabrics! I actually knew very little about fabrics made with recycled fibers before becoming a customer at Sew Dynamic Fabrics last Fall. Now, I've done some research, have felt all the bases (thanks...

Hello! I've been on the hunt for the best shorts pattern and just can't quite find what I'm looking for. So, I opted to use my trusted Brassie Jogger pattern from Greenstyle Creations to try and get the look I wanted! I used two fabrics from The Fabric Fairy for the shorts: Black Powergrid and...

One of my sewing goals for 2020 is to start working through my fabric stash. I have so much fabric that I've been saving for the "perfect project", but now realize that if I absolutely need something I can always order more fabric. This has happened especially with larger scrap pieces. I had this mentality... 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 →
Happy Saturday! Who doesn't love an AMAZING sale?? I sure do!

As I mentioned in a previous post, I've been trying to sew up some of my pattern stash. I have a love of dolmans, and found that I had the Slim Dolman by Halla Patterns on hand. I quickly printed it out and checked to see which fabric I had on hand. As I've mentioned... Continue Reading →
Here in Arizona, we're still hitting the low-mid 80's in the afternoon, but the mornings are chilly, around 60 degrees. I wanted to make another comfy casual outfit to last through the beginning of our warm fall. I am on a mission to sew up some patterns in my stash that I've never printed and... Continue Reading →
I love my Brassie Jogger Shorts by Greenstyle Creations as you can see in this, this, and this post. Those were all made with Cotton/Lycra or French Terry... so I was looking to branch out. I hopped on The Fabric Fairy's site a couple months ago and found their Carbon Stretch Woven. I had never... Continue Reading →
