The Boy’s choice for Wizard World was to be a Wizard from Clash of Clans: Whoohoo! Fairly easy costume! I already had some blue fabric for the pants, so I made him a pair of navy pants from an Ottobre pattern. I had already made him a brown shirt to wear with some flannel pants for […]

Like so many sewing mama’s I am making an Elsa costume. We went to Wizard Con (a comic con), so the kids needed a costume…of course! She wanted to go as Elsa. Big shocker right there. 😉 When looking at Elsa pictures, her dress went from a sky blue to an almost turquoise color. We ended […]
Here is my day 2 outfit, which is for casual Friday at work. I have started pulling out my summer tops, though it is really not even Spring-like yet. We had snow this week. Sucks. So I will pretend that it is summer-like with my tank top with pretty flowers on it. 🙂 If you […]
I am going to try to participate in Me Made May this month. This will require me taking an almost daily photo, which will be a challenge. I will give it a shot, though! I signed up for 5 a week, but I am going to try 7 a week. Some of those weekend days […]
This top was one that I was going to make to go along with my stash busting outfit, but it was a bit too much all together. The Challenge Create – Adult Edition results were released starting on Tuesday, and I was the lowest scoring. Ah well, I got some fun prizes! One was a Spoonflower gift […]

Skirt Fixation – Week 4 – Destash time
By Stacy on April 25, 2014Here we are at the last week! I actually have been destashing this entire time, as I have wayyyyy too much fabric on my shelves! It was bad before, but then the nearest fabric store to me decided to liquidate. Well…then…at 50-70% off it was hard NOT to buy more fabric. I was like one […]
I have been trying to make me some stretch denim capri jeggings. These are the first pair. I can’t get them on. Big time fail right here. On my next pair I added in some space. They ended up being a little too big, so I took some off at the inner seam. […]

Skirt Fixation – Week 3 – A “touch” of vintage
By Stacy on April 17, 2014Here we are at Week 3 and a touch of vintage! Well, I am not really a vintage dresser, so I had to think of what I wanted to make for this theme. In looking at the different silhouette’s, I do favor the pencil skirts and suit tops of the 40’s. I am not a […]

Signature style & Pinteresting Project – April
By Stacy on April 13, 2014This week for Project Run and Play, we are supposed to show our signature style. This has evolved for me over time as my kids have outgrown the dressy, special occasion clothes. If I were to make a lovely dress, it would sit in the closet unworn and unloved. 🙁 Right now my signature style […]
The Boy is a little addicted to the game Clash of Clans. It is on Brian’s phone, so he doesn’t get to play it too often. I guess you could say that hubby AND the Boy are playing the game. It is constantly playing, so when hubs is at work he checks on it and tells the Boy how the […]
