I had the opportunity to test another great pattern from Pattern Emporium! The Besties Tee is part of a double release with the Yours Truly Flounce Tank. Both can be great staples for your closet. I've been trying to add to my cold weather wardrobe, and this tee was a great addition! The bodice is... Continue Reading →
Y’all, I haven’t written in months! This summer we took on a ton of house projects in order to sell our house in Arizona in preparation for a cross-country move.

One of my sewing goals for 2020 is to start working through my fabric stash.

Happy Saturday! Who doesn't love an AMAZING sale?? I sure do!

When the Iron Joggers released last summer from Greenstyle Creations, I couldn't wait to sew some up for my partner. But, a few months went by and I never got around to it. Fast forward to November when I was asking my brother what he wanted for Christmas and he asked for shorts. I sent him... Continue Reading →
About a year ago, I tested the Around the Block Hoodie pattern. That post is here. I recently had the opportunity to sew up the kids version-and it is so cute! The Little and I spent nearly 45 minutes picking out fabric for this, but he is so happy with the results (and so am... Continue Reading →
