My Sewing Journey
One of my sewing goals for 2020 is to start working through my fabric stash. I have so much fabric that I've been saving for the "perfect project", but now realize that if I absolutely need something I can always order more fabric. This has happened especially with larger scrap pieces. I had this mentality... Continue Reading →
One of my very first me made items was a pencil skirt with a cactus double brushed polyester fabric. I wore it quite a bit, but now have come to find patterns and fabrics that fit me better! When I saw this gorgeous Payson Fabric at Amelia Lane Designs, I HAD to have it! I... Continue Reading →
I had the opportunity to join The Pattern Emporium in the testing of one of their latest patterns. I had not tested for them before, but I loved the process! Plus, I got a couple of gorgeous new tops out of the deal. 🙂 The new pattern I tested was Hello Gorgeous. The other that... Continue Reading →
The Little has been very interested in pirates and ships lately and has requested to be a pirate for Halloween. I'm still not sure he completely understands what Halloween is, but he keeps saying he's getting ready for the Halloween party. With him being 3, I wanted to include him in this big day. I...

I wanted something a bit sporty, so I first looked at patterns with a racerback. I had purchased the Lille Tank... Continue Reading →
If I haven't announced yet, my brother is getting married! I am so excited for him and my future sister in law and can't wait for her to join the family. 🙂 K's Bachelorette was this weekend, but unfortunately I was unable to attend. I was super bummed (still am), but wanted to send along... 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 →
I did it! I finally made a romper. I'm probably late to the game, as rompers have been popular for some time now, but I finally decided to jump in. I have been eyeing the South Shore Romper pattern since it was released and was excited to try it out just in time for Ellie... Continue Reading →
