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 […]
It has apparently been busy around here, as I am three weeks late. May was busy, and came along with a birthday for the girl. She got a nice pair of sport sunglasses, since we had no other ideas for her. There was also Mother’s Day weekend, and sure enough, yet another year of […]
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 […]

I joined a new group on Facebook dedicated to bringing monthly blog tour related to sewing for boys. Such a great idea! Boy sewing is something that does not get a lot of exposure. This is my stop on the Sewing Blue Blog Tour. See the links at the end of the post for the […]
Last week I was avoiding my sewing room like the plague. Having to alter a prom dress will do that to me… My accomplishments this week Focus Photo – Softball tournament on Saturday and the girls won it! She had some nice plays, but it seems like she may have strained a muscle. Her arm […]
It seems crazy that we are to May! My accomplishments this week Focus Photo – It was a nice night (though a bit chilly once the sun went down) to enjoy some softball. The girls won two games and tied the third. Sewing – I should pretty much just say bye-bye to the 52 week […]
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 […]
