This is a shirt I used fabric from one of the ladies at my sewing retreat. There was a give and take table, and this one-yard piece was on it. I thought it would be perfect for a dressy summer tank top! Tank top – Made by Me Jacket – CAbi Capris – LOFT Earrings […]

Well, it is definitely green around here due to all the rain, and also due to my new green skirt I made! Oh, the weather here! It hasn’t been very summer like, except when we get storms. We had quite the storm during National Night Out last week. Hailstones as big as golf balls! We […]
This outfit is one that I wasn’t sure about, but ended up rather liking. I thought it would be too much blue, but I think it works together. I made this top last year in the spring, and have only worn it a few times. I have a hard time matching it up with a […]
Here we are in a beautiful stretch of summer weather and I am still on my black and white kick. The day previously, I wore a black and white dress. The dress was the second choice of the day, though. I got in the car with my kids just in time for a thunderstorm to […]
I recently found a jewelry website that has statement necklaces, earrings, etc. They like to layer their necklaces, which I just LOVE. I go there and try not to buy the entire store, since there are so many pieces that I just need. So far…I have kept myself in check. That is pretty tough, though. […]
I have definitely been on a black kick lately. I still think I need more black, though. Right now I have a black and ecru tank that I need to finish up in the sewing room. Maybe I need another black skirt to go with it? There is no such thing as too many black […]
It is finally showing us some summer-like weather. We still need sweaters for the office, though. Oh how I hate cold summertime offices! This was a typical Monday morning. Something easy to wear that I have worn before. Getting the kids ready seems to take most of the time in the morning. They were at […]
Here is a dress I made during the sewing retreat and promptly put it on the next morning before climbing in the car for the drive home. It is so very comfy, and this is me sans shower. I was going to go home and get a workout in at least once that week…since it […]
This is an outfit I made during a sewing retreat for an online board that I frequent. In the past I have gotten to meet ladies that I conversed with in online forums. It doesn’t really bother me that I was going to meet a group of “strangers”, as I had already been getting to […]
Oh, I jest…sort of. This was one of the few nice warmish/hotish days we have had so far this summer. The subsequent days are supposed to be in the 70’s. Yuck! I want heat! We earned warmth after last winter! It has been decidedly cool, so I am usually wearing a sweater of some sort […]
