I thought I would do a blog post on the status of my summer capsule. I wore it a lot more this summer, as I was working from home, so it was more practical to wear my comfy clothes than office wear. One of the perks of working from home! In the spring of 2017 […]
I don’t know about you, but dressing for weddings always has me stumped. I want to be comfortable for the requisite eating, drinking and (hopefully) dancing, but I also want to look nice. If it is a family event, then I usually want to wear something I made. That is usually something that gets asked […]
Sewing Mamas forum is doing a stash game for September, so I decided I would join in. There isn’t much participation on the forum these days, but I figured it would be something that would give me a push. I do have limited time with the kids’ sports, but I would like to get […]
This is one of those easier to make leather bags. I have made three of these so far. The first two I made were not as wide, and I am having a bit of a problem getting my 5 x 7 journal in it, so I decided to make this one a bit bigger. I […]

I was offered to sew up these strike-off samples, which are more for a younger child. My kids were well past the age that these printed samples would fit, so I went to the next best alternative…my grand-nephew! My niece’s husband did time in the Army as an EOD specialist (think: Hurt Locker), and now […]
What…is Halloween months away or something?? Yes, I know, but with pre-orders they need to get them ordered by the end of July so they come in on time. This is a pre-order from RP Custom Fabrics and the round is called HalloMas. She has the two holidays combined so she can make sure the […]
I love this fabric that I purchased from Zenith and Quasar last year, and finally got it sewed up for me. This is the star stuff panel and Carina Nebula fabric from her space round last year. I sewed up some samples for that round, but also purchased a bunch for myself. I love how […]
I decided to participate in another blog tour by Made for Little Gents, and this time it was about making more than just a basic t-shirt for boys. The blog tour was sponsored by GYCT Designs, and they offered the blog tour participants the Primary Tee. There is a giveaway and sale included! The sale […]
This was supposed to be an entry for the 52 week sewing challenge last week, but I ran out of steam and did not get the pictures uploaded. Oh well…add it to the many weeks I missed! This top is made from a fabric pattern I drafted and then printed on Modern Jersey from Spoonflower. […]
