My Sewing Journey
Tailor Made Blog is hosting this year's BRAugust challenge on Instagram. The idea is to post a photo of a bra (or undies) that you made each day of the month. I had never heard of it until a fellow sewing friend, Alex, mentioned it. Alex dove into making a ton of bras and I finally... Continue Reading →
The Little is back at preschool this year. This summer he's grown quite a bit, so I figured he needed a few new items for his wardrobe to get him through the fall. Since we wear tees and shorts until November, that's what I decided to make! I've had this dinosaur jersey knit from Raspberry... Continue Reading →
I love my Brassie Jogger Shorts by Greenstyle Creations as you can see in this, this, and this post. Those were all made with Cotton/Lycra or French Terry... so I was looking to branch out.

I quickly ordered more, knowing there wasn't... Continue Reading →
This was the very first knit pattern I made about 2.5 years ago. I was looking for something to fit over my Little's cloth diaper and chunky baby legs... and this was it! This was a family favorite in both shorts and pants length for a couple of years. And now, it's a favorite of... Continue Reading →
I have had so much fun this summer creating swimsuits! I love being able to create ideas that I see. You can check out my first swimsuit post of the summer here. This back of this top is inspired by a swimsuit that I saw at the pool the other day! Both the top and... Continue Reading →
A couple of weeks or so before I was leaving for the summer, my mom called and asked if I could make her a couple of tanks for the summer. She was looking for some tanks to wear outside while gardening that had a lower back so she would not have a racerback tan line... Continue Reading →
