It never ceases to amaze me what designers can come up with for fabric patterns. The push for faux fill-in-the-blank can give you a fun look with the comfort of knit. I’ve seen faux leather, faux sparkles, faux glitter and here we have faux cable knit. It gives you a look of winter, but without […]

I was offered to sew up these strike-off samples, which are more for a younger child. My kids were well past the age that these printed samples would fit, so I went to the next best alternative…my grand-nephew! My niece’s husband did time in the Army as an EOD specialist (think: Hurt Locker), and now […]
What…is Halloween months away or something?? Yes, I know, but with pre-orders they need to get them ordered by the end of July so they come in on time. This is a pre-order from RP Custom Fabrics and the round is called HalloMas. She has the two holidays combined so she can make sure the […]
Here is the last print I sewed up for the current rounds open at Fabric Anthropology/Thread Therapy Fabric. I volunteered to sew up too many fabrics this time. I didn’t keep track of what I had already signed up for, soooooo…yeah, a little stressed with getting them sewn up and photographed! Disclosure: This post may […]
I have to admit…I’ve been in a bit of a sewing slump lately. This is mostly due to the fact that it is super busy with sports during June, and I don’t have much time to sew. I like to have larger tracts of time to be creative, and that just hasn’t been happening lately. […]
I have a tendency to draft new patterns whenever I have a sample strike off to sew up. I know…Imma little cray cray in that. I have to say they don’t always turn out, but this one did! Disclosure: This post may contain affiliate links, which means I may receive a commission if you click a […]
I am sad to say that I actually bought the girl some clothes for summer. I have been really good the last several years, and have made most of her clothes. Something had to give, though. Time has not been plentiful of late to get things sewn up for her. I did get a […]
This print is from a pre-order that opens today, where some of the prints are centered around Kubo. It is a great movie, so I would definitely recommend seeing it.

Not only a great quote from the books, but a great outlook on life! This top, along with the skirt, are basically what I like to sew. They have a bit of a steampunk flair to them, which is just so fun to wear. Disclosure: This post may contain affiliate links, which means I may […]
