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
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

The changing seasons are always beautiful too. In Chicago we don't get a … Continue reading Raspberry Creek CLUB Fall Line – Part 1

Perfection if you … Continue reading Brunch Blouse Pattern Release
Hi friends - a quick post tonight. I just wanted to call out the new Silhouette/Cricut cut files designed by Megan at Made for Mermaids. The awesome thing is, 100% of the proceeds from these are donated to local Houston charities. I made a quick Mama Nina in shirt length last night - seriously, 1.5 … Continue reading Hurricane Harvey Charity Designs

I'm so excited to share not one but three dresses today! Which may or may not be basically the same.
