This was a Mother’s Day present to me. I made this on Mother’s Day as I was given many hours of uninterrupted sewing time. This is a dress that I drafted myself. I had to make a few modifications, but in the end I really like how it turned out. It fits my body well, […]

This skirt was a fail in the sewing department. The seams are bunchy and the hem is uneven. Still…I wanted to wear it at least once since I spent so much time on the making of it. I should have just cut a simple skirt on the bias and that would have worked so much […]
I’m looking forward to Spring, but unfortunately we still need to wear sweaters around here. Hopefully, soon… Skirt – me Black top – me Sweater – Ann Taylor Loft Jewelry – Silpada Shoes – shortly to be in the trash. The bottoms are coming off. 🙁
This was a quickie skirt I made on Sunday afternoon. I was itching to get something sewn up for me, and decided to do a remake a skirt I had repurposed in junior high. That skirt is still in my closet, though a bit tight and a little bit short. I still wore it to […]
I made this skirt last weekend, along with 2 other ones. I really like how flattering the fit is on me! The one thing I like about being able to whip up clothing is that I can make things that really work with my body type. I am wearing it with a new crossfront knit […]

Over the holidays when I had time on my hands I went through my wardrobe. Nearly every morning when I had gotten ready for work, I would have my clothes laid out from the night before. Then I would change. Then change again. Then probably…yet again. It is hard enough getting the kids ready and […]
There are just some outfits that make you feel good. This one made me feel like a pirate with the fitted vest, the sash at the waist and my fun ruffled suede boots. I had my hair braided on the front and it pulled back into a bun. Pink cowl knit shirt – made by […]
I seem to be really gravitating towards blue these days. Maybe because I feel the need for a bright cheery color, especially as winter is going to be coming here soon. This sweater is a purchase from a consignment store. There are two in my town, and the store I bought this one from touts […]
