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...

Curved Hem Pocket Tank
I am loving the (kind of) new Curved Hem Pocket Tank by Ellie and Mac! The best part? This pattern is free on their website! Who doesn't love free patterns? I love them even more when they are well drafted and unique! First, I wanted to use my latest color of Bamboo Lycra Jersey Knit from... Continue Reading →
Summer Staples for the Little
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 →
Testing the Sinclair Valley Skater Dress

Unexpected Projects: A Treasure Map
If any of you remember from this past Halloween, my kiddo likes pirates, treasures, jewels, you name it. He dressed as a pirate for Halloween and loves his treasure box and pirate money from his great grandparents.

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 →

Bow Button Fabrics – Style Box #1
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 →
Holiday Pajamas
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...
