I must admit…I love a good long cardigan. It offers nice bottom coverage and tends to be a bit warmer in the winter. This fabric was a bit thin, but we are in a warm streak here at above 25 degrees F. It had plenty of warmth for the mild winter temperatures. The pattern draft […]
This is another pattern hack from the Wardrobe by Me Basic Builder Top. I originally did this hack a few summers ago and made it a summer dress with a keyhole neckline and bands on the sleeves to make it sleeveless. This iteration of the dress is making it long sleeved and using the funnel […]
I am calling this a “sort of” cosplay, since I just didn’t have the energy to source all the matching materials and fabrics for this to be a full on cosplay. I still put plenty of time into it…don’t get me wrong. Here is the character: Maria from the Assassin’s Creed movie. She is an […]
I like to wear vests in the winter…sometimes in the summer, too. It gives some booty coverage and lengthens out your profile. This is a pattern hack of the WBM Builder top. I used the longer length, created a different front neckline, added the front facing, armhole facings, added a cape and a band at […]
I am all for figure concealing clothing right now. Never did get that summer bod, so we are looping right back in winter bod. 😉 I am loving layers right now. I look on Pinterest at all those outfits with 5,000 layers and think of all the things I could sew to make it happen. […]
After I got my job offer I decided to try on my work pants. The last time I wore most of them was about 1.5 years ago before I started working from home. The yoga pants have not been kind to me. 😉 Yes, nonnnnnnne of them fit! So! Time to make something I can […]
Well, it happened. I got a job. No more sleeping in, drinking coffee and checking Facebook for the first half of the day. 😉 No…now I have to actually use my brain again! It should be interesting and challenging, which is something my last job wasn’t for several years. I’m looking forward to it! Now, […]
As part of my #makenine for 2019, I put a pair of moto looking leggings on it. After thinking about it for a bit, I decided that I would change it up to be more pants similar to the ones I made last fall for my Warrior outfit. These were self-drafted and require some different […]
There are times when I am just not interested in lugging my purse around. In these moments, it is nice to have a hip bag that I can put my phone, keys, etc. into and free up my shoulder from the burden of my overstuffed purse. There are TONS of inspiration and ideas on Pinterest […]
I’ve had this fabric since some time last year, and I wanted to make a lighter jacket with it for fall and spring. Something that you could just throw on before going outside if it was a little chilly. I started using a pattern, but I changed it so much that you can’t really call […]
