I know I constantly obsess over the CLUB collection from Raspberry Creek, but today I'm loving some of their regular retail yardage: sweater knit! What's not to love about buffalo plaid?! This hacci sweater knit is the softest fabric ever. I sewed up the Made for Mermaids Women's Nina because I knew it would fit … Continue reading Raspberry Creek Sweater Knit
In my previous post, I realized that I had never blogged this Fairfield! I started it back in March, before I was pregnant, when I still had energy. I finished it up and took these pictures on our trip to Washington right before I was hit with crazy nausea. So now I am finally getting … Continue reading Thread Theory Fairfield Button-Up
I asked on Instagram (follow me!) what I should make to wear to my baby shower. I've not been into super tight "show off the 32 week bump" kind of clothes, which kind of surprised me a little bit. But the most recommended dress by far by all of you was the Wiggle Dress with … Continue reading Maternity Nikko Dress
Even though it's already September, it's still 90+ degrees here in Chicago, so I feel justified in posting this skirt & tank combo before I launch head first into fall style! I made this one last month and even got pictures mid-August but in the whirlwind of working full time, Brian starting a new job, … Continue reading So Classic Sundress Skirt Hack
This is definitely one of my most favorite makes in quite a while - also something I had been planning to make for a long time as well! I was just waiting for motivation and the perfect fabric; I certainly found both in the Raspberry Creek Fabrics fall line this year. Both the large scale … Continue reading Nursing Halifax Hoodie Tutorial + RCF

The changing seasons are always beautiful too. In Chicago we don't get a … Continue reading Raspberry Creek CLUB Fall Line – Part 1
I'm back with another maternity modified Fringe dress! This one was actually what I had made first as my muslin for the Fringe dress I posted earlier. But it turned out even better than I had hoped so I do wear it quite often. Like the other Fringe dress, this fabric is also rayon challis … Continue reading Maternity Chalk and Notch Fringe Dress – Again
As soon as I saw the pretest photos and line drawing for the new P4P So Classic Sundress, I knew it had to be done with gingham. And it did not disappoint! Also, can I get a prize for doing 16 functioning buttons / button holes at 11PM and NOT messing any up?! I did test … Continue reading So Classic Sundress
I'm really loving the entire summer line from Raspberry Creek! I was able to sew up some of this pretty Sand Stripe in rayon challis and it was an absolute dream. Pattern wise, I used the Chalk and Notch Fringe Dress, with a small modification to ensure it was maternity-friendly: Removed 1.5" from the bodice length … Continue reading Maternity Fringe Dress + Raspberry Creek Fabrics
