Of course, I had to make a hack of this pattern right away. Not that there aren’t a ton of options, but I wanted to copy a sweater that I already owned. It is pretty close to this pattern, only with narrow arms. I also wanted a bit more booty coverage. Base pattern: RuLo top […]
My accomplishments this week I really didn’t get much done this week…I was sick all week, so I was just getting things done that I needed to get off my plate. I did sew a bit…I wanted to stay away from everyone and not get them sick, too. Focus Photo – Just because I loved […]
I have been meaning to tackle another of these hoodie jackets since I made the first one. Knowing how long it was going to take definitely made my hold off on it, though. I ended up putting it in my #makenine challenge so I was sure to get it done! I also saw this jacket […]
I’m on a roll! I work on my Focus post in the beginning of the week, and it helps me to plan on what I want to get done during the week. I edit as I go for what I accomplish (or don’t as it may be!), and it is actually helping me stay on […]
I wanted to make a nice neutral tunic top, so of course, I went over the top with the details. As I was cutting it out I was wondering if I should have made a different neckline, but I really like how cozy this is with the funnel cowl on it. Details: Pattern used for […]
I am going to add yet another weekly post (OOTD being at the beginning, so not sure how weekly it will end up being). Several years back when I was largely into photography there used to be weekly and annual prompts people would follow to give themselves a creative impetus to go out and take […]
Here we are at the beginning of another year! They seem to be going by faster the older I get. Time sure has sped up the last few years. It is hard to believe that I have a teenager and almost a teenager, and that hubs and I will be celebrating 20 years wed this […]
In the interest of cleaning up some old posts in my blog, I bring you a pattern test that got dropped this summer. It fit some of the ladies, but overall it was hard to get it right. It wasn’t the easiest pattern to make with all those gathers in knit materials. I wasn’t sure […]
Was it just me, or did 2017 just fly by like a bat out of hell? Our 2017 started out with our son puking all over the place, and it is ending with my Grandma Jo breaking her other arm and my girl needing knee surgery for a meniscus tear. Throw in several funerals, and […]
This week I was trying to focus more on my brown/natural colors that I have made. I was mostly successful in staying away from black. Mostly. Monday, December 18 Top – Brasov pattern in Carina Nebula by Zenith & Quasar Skirt – poly lycra, my own pattern Jewelry – JC Penny’s Shoes – Sketchers Tuesday, […]
