My Sewing Journey
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 Friday, everyone! Greenstyle Creations is in the third week of their Fit Capsule challenge and I am sharing the first part of my capsule today. My plan this year was to go neutral and add in some much needed workout tanks. I started with these two fabrics from The Fabric Fairy. I've been trying... 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. 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....
