I know…so exciting! I am like most people, I think, where underwear is the last thing you think about replacing…and the most often worn. I have had the same batch I bought from Victoria’s Secret at least 8 years ago, and they were in not great shape. Add to the fact that my butt is […]

A new blanket for Khaleesi
By Stacy on December 29, 2018This was a fun and quick sew for Fabric Anthropology that I just had to get a Dany wig for the photos! This is the Dothraki panel with a black cuddle minky that I picked up at Joann’s, I think. All you do is serge them together, leaving an 8 inch opening. Turn right sides […]
A new black purse
By Stacy on December 28, 2018I will have to get on those “2018 wrap up” posts, but I am so behind in just posting everything in general. I will sit down next week after the 1st and work on getting caught up on everything. For now…I have a purse! This is my boxy purse that I made taller, so I […]
Waterfall scarf
By Stacy on December 15, 2018I have been wanting to make this scarf for all of this year, so I decided to finally make it this past week. I knew it would be a bit slapdash to make it. The waterfall nature of the scarf with varying lengths just look like you start cutting and see what happens. Which is […]
Comfy sweatshirt dress
By Stacy on December 9, 2018Hey, I sewed something up this week! I have had this cut out for a few weeks, so I finally got around to sewing it up. It is basically this same top, only with a longer band around the bottom and deeper pockets. This is only 2-way stretch, so it is a bit tighter around […]
Lightning strikes!
By Stacy on November 11, 2018I am a sucker for red fabrics. Anything I can mix with black usually ends up in my shopping cart, since I wear it so much. Having my kids’ school colors as red and black definitely helps, since I try to wear the fan colors at their tournaments and games. This is the Flash lightning […]
Pride City Stripes
By Stacy on November 10, 2018This was my top for the Pride round at Fabric Anthropology. When I got sent the fabric I was a little concerned by how “colorful” it was. If you haven’t noticed…I tend to wear a lot of neutral colors…and red. So…I thought about what kind of design I wanted to make that would still be […]
Fall staples – the tunic top
By Stacy on November 8, 2018I made a few tops for fall that I knew would get used in heavy rotation. I was missing some basic layering tops, and that was just silly. I have plenty of fabric…hello! I like to have longer tops to go with my leggings for booty coverage. For all of these I used the Sneha […]
Fall staples – the black cardigan
By Stacy on October 24, 2018I do tend to fall back on styles that I really like to wear a lot. Right now I am working from home, so comfort is key! I am trying to be better about not looking like a total slob, but sometimes the effort is tough. It is easy when I have comfortable pieces to […]
FA Fashion week line – The Woods outfit
By Stacy on October 16, 2018Here are the deets on this outfit. I was going for a gypsy/forest witch kind of look to them. The fabric is from the Fashion Week line at Fabric Anthropology. The woven and bamboo printed with a more purple and less black color than the brushed poly from the pants outfit. I desaturated these photos […]
