It has apparently been busy around here, as I am three weeks late. May was busy, and came along with a birthday for the girl. She got a nice pair of sport sunglasses, since we had no other ideas for her. There was also Mother’s Day weekend, and sure enough, yet another year of […]
Just a quick blog post to show I have sewn a few things. I just haven’t gotten them posted on my blog! Here is another top made from a pattern I drafted a few years ago from a RTW top I loved. It is nice to have a few staple patterns that you can pull […]

I joined a new group on Facebook dedicated to bringing monthly blog tour related to sewing for boys. Such a great idea! Boy sewing is something that does not get a lot of exposure. This is my stop on the Sewing Blue Blog Tour. See the links at the end of the post for the […]
Last week I was avoiding my sewing room like the plague. Having to alter a prom dress will do that to me… My accomplishments this week Focus Photo – Softball tournament on Saturday and the girls won it! She had some nice plays, but it seems like she may have strained a muscle. Her arm […]

All that is gold does not glitter, Not all those who wander are lost: The old that is strong does not wither, Deep roots are not reached by the frost; From the ashes, a fire shall be woken, A light from the shadow shall spring; Renewed shall be blade that was broken, The crownless again […]
Our girl was doing a research project on elephant conservation, so I decided she needed an elephant shirt to wear during her presentation. It was a good little presentation, and she learned the awful things that happen to the poor elephants. She’s an animal lover for sure. Right now she is thinking of becoming a […]
Well, I think I am finally caught up at work, so now to try to stay on track and not lose focus. I know eventually I’m going to have a lot of down time before my job officially ends, so I need to make sure I focus on productive tasks instead of being on Facebook […]
