My Sewing Journey
Y'all, I think I've found my new favorite comfy hoodie/sweatshirt! The Nova by Sinclair is a great relaxed raglan that is perfect in French Terry and Sweater Knits! I've made three and am going to tell you all about them today! I started with a crew neck version to check fit. I first went with... Continue Reading →
A few posts back I mentioned that I am trying to sew through some of the patterns in my stash. The Pacific Pullover by Greenstyle Creations is one I have had since summer 2018, but have never sewn up. I was wanting a hoodie with two things: color blocking options and thumb hole cuffs. This...

I love the Studio to Street Top by Greenstyle Creations. It is one of my favorite tops, and I can't wait to make all the comfy hooded versions this winter!

On Thursday, I was trying to decide if I wanted to sew up a new dress for graduation on Saturday. I was eyeing the George + Ginger Facebook page, knowing that a new test was coming up for the updated version of the Drama Dress. Friday morning, I decided I was going to print off...

I have trying to be more adventurous in my sewing (I may or may not have a pattern with a button hole planned in the near future). Most times that means new patterns with new techniques and features (for me), but sometimes that means fabric, too! When I saw this jacquard mesh would soon be... Continue Reading →
