This summer, I have plans to spend lots of time at the beach, pool, and a lake... which means I need a new swimsuit, right? After some thinking, I decided to use the Greenstyle North Shore Swimsuit for the bottoms and the Power Sports Bra for the top. I ordered some beautiful swim fabric that... Continue Reading →
Another Helen – Faux Placket Hack
I absolutely love my Helen Dress from DIBY that I wrote about here. I was going to make the short sleeve option for my next version, but with my summer plans, I knew I would get more use out of another tank version. I wanted a solid color, but was trying to think of how... Continue Reading →

P4P – Tulip Tee, Minus the Tulip
Last September, Patterns for Pirates released the FREE Tulip Tee during their 100,000 fans sale. Such a huge accomplishment. I personally am not a fan of tulip tees, but the pattern also came with solid front and back pieces (mainly because the tulip option was for either back or front) and it is a simple...
