My Sewing Journey
This week I was able to participate in another Ellie & Mac Wacky Wednesday! As a reminder, every Wednesday, Ellie & Mac sets a few of their patterns on sale for $1. This is such a great way to build your pattern stash at such a low price! This week I had the chance to... Continue Reading →
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 →

After a couple of months of the Little wearing his mama made trainers, he was ready to move on from cloth trainers. I pulled out the Stitch Upon A Time Kids Boxerwear pattern to make him some undies. I had bought the pattern last summer when I made some boxer briefs for a friend's kiddo.... 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 →
