I have to admit…I’ve been in a bit of a sewing slump lately. This is mostly due to the fact that it is super busy with sports during June, and I don’t have much time to sew. I like to have larger tracts of time to be creative, and that just hasn’t been happening lately. […]
I have a tendency to draft new patterns whenever I have a sample strike off to sew up. I know…Imma little cray cray in that. I have to say they don’t always turn out, but this one did! Disclosure: This post may contain affiliate links, which means I may receive a commission if you click a […]
This is my second year participating in the Sew Americana Blog tour by Wild & Wanderful, and it is a fun mid-summer prompt to get something sewn up for the 4th of July. I was hoping that I would have more time to sew and get something made, but my free time has really been […]
I am sad to say that I actually bought the girl some clothes for summer. I have been really good the last several years, and have made most of her clothes. Something had to give, though. Time has not been plentiful of late to get things sewn up for her. I did get a […]
“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 […]
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 […]

Not only a great quote from the books, but a great outlook on life! This top, along with the skirt, are basically what I like to sew. They have a bit of a steampunk flair to them, which is just so fun to wear. Disclosure: This post may contain affiliate links, which means I may […]
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 […]
