This fabric design was one of the first designs I put together, and I still really love how it turned out. I think one of the designs looks like a lion. Do you see it? I printed this on the cotton lycra at Spoonflower, and it didn’t print out a true black. You can see […]
I loved this fabric when I saw it on Affordable Fabrics and More’s website, but I wasn’t sure what to make with it. We are kind of growing out of these kinds of prints, but I thought I could make something fun. I only bought one yard, since it is pretty spendy fabric. I was […]
I remember the 80’s well, as I spent my most awkward years during the extra large bangs, neon and bleached dyed jeans era. As most of us girls that grew up during that era can attest, if you were to drop a lit match on the floor of the bathroom, the whole place would ignite […]
Oh skorts, how do I love thee? Let me count the ways! #1 My girl is active and doesn’t like to be ladylike. She crawls on the floor, likes to run around, and doesn’t want to worry about showing her underwear. #2 Due to #1 above, she really has a hard time wearing skirts. She […]
I need to get organized, so I am going to post my ideas for getting some fall sewing done. The girl is in need of pretty much everything. She has grown several inches since last year, so of course, none of her pants fit. I made most of her leggings long, so they kind of […]
I absolutely love how this outfit turned out for my daughter. These patterns are the Cruise and Star from Blaverry. I received these for free as part of the promotions team, but all opinions are my own. The Girl has been complaining that she didn’t have enough shorts for summer. I tend not to make […]
Sewing for a tween boy can be a bit of a challenge. This is especially true when he really doesn’t care at all what he wears, as long as it is comfortable. Only recently has he cared enough to actually match his clothes. A bit frustrating. Luckily, he still wants me to make him things, […]
I just love how this top turned out! As part of the Blaverry promotions team, I received this pattern, which is the Yves top/tunic/dress. It is a reversible woven top with shirring and ruching with ribbon or bias at the shoulder. I made a size 7W and 14L top. It also come in tunic and […]
Here is the outfit that I posted over on Craftingcon.com for their wearable Steampunk challenge. I thought I had already put it up over here, but guess not! I ended up using some pieces that I had previously made this year, along with some new multi-purpose pieces. The first piece in her outfit is a […]
Me: Do you like the outfit? I think it looks nice on you. Girl: I look like a business person. Me: You look classy. Girl: What does classy mean. Me: The opposite of trashy. You look stylish. Girl: I always look stylish. She does like how it looks on her, to be clear. The only […]
