Thread Theory Fairfield Button-Up

October 8, 2018October 8, 2018Leave a comment

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

November BeeBox – VHCO

December 11, 2017December 11, 2017Leave a comment

Can I just say I am so jealous that I made this zip up hoodie / jacket for Brian and not for me?  What was I thinking?!  It's incredibly warm and irresistible.  Oh well, guess I'll have to steal it every chance I get. Let's talk about the fabric.  The plaid is a fantastic custom … Continue reading November BeeBox – VHCO

Birthday Newcastle Cardigan

November 26, 2017November 25, 2017Leave a comment

I've had my eye on the Thread Theory Newcastle Cardigan for Brian ever since I first started sewing (2 years ago!).  It always seemed a bit too complicated so I never attempted it until now.  Well, I sewed it for Brian's birthday in September, but we weren't able to get any pictures until now.  First … Continue reading Birthday Newcastle Cardigan

I'm back tonight with something new I'm so excited to share!  The CLUB custom fall line by Raspberry Creek Fabrics is absolutely phenomenal, but this mountain print and the coordinating plaid are my top favorites by far. It's another Finlayson Sweater by Thread Theory!  As you may recall, I sewed two of these earlier this year … Continue reading Fall Mountain-wear, Part 1

An Octopus Strathcona

Isn't this octopus print awesome?  I bought it towards the beginning of summer and am just now sewing it up...to continue my trend from my last post!  It's another cotton lycra from Raspberry Creek. This Thread Theory Strathcona was such a weird trial of errors.  I had initially used a triblend for the body pieces but … Continue reading An Octopus Strathcona

Happy Thursday!  Today I'm sharing another Arrowsmith tank I made for Brian, with the new Thin Line strike offs from Vinegar and Honey.

I think this is the first year I’m not sewing at midnight on October 30th. 😂 I really wanted to get a few pictures before the rain came here in the PNW so that was a good motivation. Anyway Pooh and Piglet wish you a happy Halloween! 🎃

Summer in Oregon ☀️🍓
Looking at my feed made me realize I hadn’t posted here in over a year! But really I don’t expect anyone to see this because I know Instagram hates posts. 🤷🏻‍♀️ But in that timespan I grew and birthed another baby boy, we moved to the Pacific Northwest and I hardly sewed anything. 😂 This linen faux-romper (fauxmper?) is one of my favorite makes though and it’s perfect for hot weather and staying cool. Anyway, just posting to say hi. I’m hoping maybe the dead rodent in the wall of my craft room will decompose ASAP so that I can enter the room without being nauseated. No big deal. What is with my sewing space and rodents?!??? 😭😭😭
This boy is definitely a snuggly one these days! He was always so squirmy and unsettled as a baby, it’s still surprising when he is like this now.
It’s been a while, but hopefully my “sewjo” has returned for the time being. The past few months have been very rough for a few reasons but...sewing is at the top of my self care list and so I’m trying to make it a priority! Easier said than done.
