My Sewing Journey
I've been looking to reuse some of my old clothing items that don't fit well. Last last year, I used some old sweatpants and made new sweatpants for my kiddo. They are the perfect sleeping pants and looks so cute on. So, I wanted to do that again! I went through my donate pile recently... Continue Reading →
Bow Button Fabrics is one of my go to fabric shops and I am so excited that they have started style boxes! I have never bought a mystery box, scrap box, subscription box, etc., because I really hate surprises. I even have a hard time buying new to me fabrics because I hate when I... Continue Reading →
Our family has a fun little tradition that has become quite popular in recent years. On Christmas Day, we wear matching pajamas. But, unlike many families that wear reds and greens, we choose pajamas that don't necessarily are only pajamas and fabrics that will last all year long. This year, my partner requested a shirt...

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 →

This pattern has been on my sew list for a LONG time. With the weather finally cooling off in the early mornings, I wanted something to wear for the transitioning seasons. The Open Back Pullover from Greenstyle Creations was perfect. I had a really tough time deciding on fabrics to use. I had just received... 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 →
I’ve seen so many cute crop tops everywhere lately and wanted to jump on board! I did not have a pattern for one, so looked toward my pattern library to see what could work. I wanted something a bit sporty, so I first looked at patterns with a racerback. I had purchased the Lille Tank... Continue Reading →
