My Sewing Journey
I’ve seen so many cute crop tops everywhere lately and wanted to jump on board! I did not have a pattern for one, so looked toward my pattern library to see what could work. I wanted something a bit sporty, so I first looked at patterns with a racerback. I had purchased the Lille Tank... Continue Reading →
I recently had the opportunity to sew up a new AOS (athletic or swim) fabric from Bow Button Fabrics and was blown away by the gorgeous fabric I received! Have you ever had a plan where you picture making one thing, but once the fabric is in hand you want to go a completely different... Continue Reading →
You may have all seen some of these photos before, but I can't get over these hooded tanks! I first made myself this Muscle Up Tank by Greenstyle Creations during testing, and my partner really liked the fabric. He asked for one in the same fabric for himself!

One thing I love about sewing is sewing items for myself I normally would not even dream of trying on in the store. I love being able to see pdf patterns on different individuals of all shapes and sizes. I also enjoy seeing how different fabric choices affect the fit of the pattern. This is... Continue Reading →
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 →
Hello! Y'all, testing the Greenstyle Clara Wrap Top was such a fun test for me. This is not a top I would normally pick out for myself (I normally skip anything that accentuates my small chest), but I really love this one. The pattern is really versatile. It looks great as a wrap top for... Continue Reading →
