My Sewing Journey
One of my very first me made items was a pencil skirt with a cactus double brushed polyester fabric. I wore it quite a bit, but now have come to find patterns and fabrics that fit me better! When I saw this gorgeous Payson Fabric at Amelia Lane Designs, I HAD to have it! I... Continue Reading →
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 →
I am the type of person who does not like to buy or make things that I will only use/wear once or once in awhile. The exceptions are rare occasions like a big wedding (did I mention my brother just got married!!). So, when I plan items to make, I make sure I can get... 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.

Since we wear tees and shorts until November, that's what I decided to make! I've had this dinosaur jersey knit from Raspberry... 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 →
You may have all seen some of these photos before, but I can't get over these hooded tanks! I first made myself this Muscle Up Tank by Greenstyle Creations during testing, and my partner really liked the fabric. He asked for one in the same fabric for himself! I quickly ordered more, knowing there wasn't... 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 →
