Well, this week started out with my birthday, which when you get older…isn’t really all that exciting. There are no wild parties and you are happy you don’t have to cook for dinner. Generally, I buy myself something nice and say “Thanks for the present!” So…exciting. Here is the week of Me Mades, which included […]
Another week…hey, I’m on a roll! This week is an ode to comfy business casual office wear. I wore knits all week at work, was comfy and didn’t look too casual. Monday, December 4th – no picture, I wore RTW that day. Tuesday, December 5th Cardigan: Moss modal jersey, my own pattern Straight leg leggings: […]
Seems a bit ubiquitous to do purple, now doesn’t it? 😉 This is the new round up at Fabric Anthropology with famous musician’s that have passed, in addition to some Pride prints celebrating acceptance. I sewed up the Prince panel, with plans to get over to Paisley Park to get some photos of it in […]
I decided to try to do an outfit post to show how I wear my Me Mades on a daily basis. This might be a bit intermittent depending on how much time I have to take pictures in the morning. I usually wear at least one Me Made per day. This will also give me […]

This is such a cute top! Releasing today is the George and Ginger Posh Top. I made a size 14 tween for the girl out of cotton lycra from Fabric Anthropology. Kristi did shorten the pattern a few inches after this version, but otherwise the fit is the same on the final. It has these […]
On Saturday night we were going to go to a concert to see A Perfect Circle, so I wanted to get a small bag finished up to carry my phone and wallet. I had been meaning to make something like this for awhile now, and am pretty happy with how it turned out. I made […]
There are a pair of stretch jeggings I have where I really like the fit of them. They are kind of straight leg leggings, and I wanted to copy them for awhile now. I finally got that done this weekend. When I copy a RTW item I own, I turn it inside out, cover each […]
Back in the summer I made my girl a dress that I thought would work for her choir concerts this year. Nope! The girl needed a black bottoms and white top for her choir concert, so back to the sewing machine I went. She said she wanted a “flowy” top and I got to choose […]
