I know, I know…I failed miserably at taking pictures for Me Made May. I did, however, wear my clothes I made for a good 5 or 6 days each week. It’s not hard when you make a lot of your own clothes. I have been pretty busy with the kids’ summer sports, so I have […]
This shirt is one that I sewed up at the retreat. I copied it off a RTW shirt that I had in my closet that was getting faded and had some holes in the front. I had it all cut out ahead of time, so I just had to sew it up when I got […]
I had a great time at the Sewing Mamas retreat this past weekend. Bonus: it was pretty close to me, whereas most everyone else had to drive far or fly in for it. We went shopping at SR Harris, and I spent too much money on fabric…again. Then we sewed and gabbed and ate things that […]
Last Thursday I had a minor surgery, so I was trying to take it easy over the weekend. I was a bit tired out from the surgery and was not supposed to lift anything heavy. I did get a chance to finally get some sewing off my table, though. Standing at my cutting table […]
This is a top I made to go with another pair of jeans I bought for the Girl. As you can see…it is for the Fall and not for the warm weather we are experiencing now. I figured that she would need a long-sleeved top to go with these jeans. At first my energy […]

Tie-dye vs. the monsoon
By Stacy on June 25, 2014I made this lovely little knit/stretch lace capri joggers for the Girl to tie-dye at the camp. I used parts of an Ottobre pattern, but the legs on it are a bit off. I will need to adjust that a bit next time I use that pattern. The white lace on it is the same lace as […]
Shannon invited me to participate in the Breeze Top pattern tour, and I just couldn’t say no! Of course, the Girl has her own opinions and I wasn’t sure she would be as thrilled as I. Fortunately, she liked the style and we worked on a top that she would wear. Yes, this is the top […]
Today I am over at Gracious Threads for her Embellish is for Boys series with this outfit for the Boy. Notice how dry our backyard is in this photo? Yeah…that is SO NOT THE CASE right now. I am guessing we have had 5-7 inches of rain overnight and into mid-day today. Our backyard is […]

Tie-dye chronicles
By Stacy on June 18, 2014The camp that the children go to for a few weeks over the summer has a tie dye activity. Every. Single. Week. Really, how many tie dye t-shirts does a kid need? The Boy already did a tie-dyed t-shirt as part of his last week in school. He learned there were different ways to tie […]

Another Pinterest Fail
By Stacy on June 16, 2014I was excited to try to make this top: The supplies I used was a lace appliqué and a very light, thin cotton gauze. Unfortunately, I couldn’t find lace like the top above. The piece I found was smaller, but thought it would still work. I drafted a pattern, and made it very drapey and long. […]
