If you have followed my sewing much, you will know that I tend to draft a lot of the patterns that I sew. I love being able to sketch something out, and then turn it into a piece of clothing. Drafting patterns is not rocket science, but experience in sewing does really help. The basics […]
Week 31 was officially the end of summer ball. The boy was in an all star tournament, and they did fairly well. They ended up 4th place, but it was a not really a full tournament. As per the usual this summer, rain made it hard to play all the games. They ended up […]
Gotta admit…this summer has thoroughly exhausted me. I’m not sure how the kids would have gotten everywhere if I hadn’t been “working” from home. While I did get what I needed done for work, it was definitely affected by my kids activities, with having to work late on many nights when I really shouldn’t have […]
I love this fabric that I purchased from Zenith and Quasar last year, and finally got it sewed up for me. This is the star stuff panel and Carina Nebula fabric from her space round last year. I sewed up some samples for that round, but also purchased a bunch for myself. I love how […]

“We fight. That is how we win, that is how we die.” Ragnar to Bjorn, Season 3, The Vikings Look familiar? Well, I did make my hubby a t-shirt with that saying on it from fabric from Fabric Anthropology. The panels were adult only, though. My girl reads a lot of Y.A. books on female […]
