    The Florence Dress in Stripes

    April 1, 2020 /

    Ok, I am super happy with this new thing I made! I had to jump on here and start blogging about it ASAP. This new dress in the exact sort of thing I want to be wearing right now. Its an oversized, gathered, linen-cotton blend dream with interesting style lines and buttons! Ahhh, the good sewing fairies are smiling down on me...

    March 31, 2020 /

    It’s been a while! Life has been busy but I’m back again sharing another finished garment. This time I got to play with some beautiful gifted fabric from Measure. I made something very cozy which is all I want to wear in our current quarantine situation in California. I’m not going to talk about Covid 19 today. Although it’s on my mind almost 100% of the time, I will be forcing myself to take a mental break from the topic as I blog it up...

    Swiss Dot Silk Chiffon Wilder Gown

    February 12, 2020 /

    Here I am again with a new make that I am so happy with. There has been lots of experimenting with new fabric types around here. Silk may be a new favorite and, surprisingly enough, was not at all as intimidating to work with as I had anticipated. Recently, I was asked to be a Measure Maker for Measure Fabrics featuring some of their very glorious salvaged designer fabrics in my makes. I could not be more thrilled about the opportunity. Today I'm sharing a dress I made with this beautiful Swiss Dot Silk Chiffon from Measure and it may be the most wispy, floaty thing I own...

    Red Axis Dress

    January 17, 2020 /

    Well, heck. I didn't think I needed an Axis Dress and almost didn't make it. That would have been very lame because I absolutely love this pattern. This dress literally gives you a great big hug, and who doesn't need that?! Now all I need is a place to wear my new little red dress (are you listening hubby?)...

    Grace Knitting Pattern Review

    January 8, 2020 /

    I thought I would jump on here to share my newly finished sweater using a beautiful pattern by Bayron Handmade. This was a very fun and fairly easy project. I want to encourage knitters, even beginner ones, to make a Grace for their own wardrobe. The pattern is gorgeous and you wont be disappointed...

    Patchwork Denim Jacket

    December 23, 2019 /

    Today is all about my very fun Nénuphar jacket, in english the Water Lily, made completely of denim scraps and old jeans! Oh, to say that this was a fun project is an understatement. As a finished piece my patchwork Nénuphar is visually crazy, for lack of a better word, but I just cannot stop admiring the busy patterns and colors. I guarantee you sewists out there will love the process of sewing it up...

    Carmella Jumpsuit Review

    I have a new make to share! This is all about my recently finished Carmella Jumpsuit from Fibre Mood. Fibre Mood is a new to me pattern company and I loved the experience of sewing up one of their patterns. Of course, I had to make some small changes to the pattern to make it my own. I'll be sharing some of those changes below...
