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

Tencel Twill Willamette Shirt
Can you believe it? I already sewed one of my goal patterns for this year: the Hey June Willamette Shirt! For this procrastinator, that's truly remarkable considering it's only March. Ha!

January BeeBox – VHCO
I think this month's VHCO BeeBox is my complete favorite so far! The colors are very earthy and the fabric is a french terry with a nice mid-weight to it. I love the pop of pink/maroon too! It has a very vintage vibe. I decided to do some pattern modifications to get the type of … Continue reading January BeeBox – VHCO
Custom Fabric Applique Raglan
Are you ready for my favorite shirt of 2018?! Well, I've only sewed 3 this year so far but this one easily tops the list and probably will for a while!

September BeeBox – VHCO
It's the end of September, but you'd never guess it by the weather here in Chicago! It's been in the upper 80's lately and today was especially hot and humid. Insanely odd, but I'm super pleased that these photos ended up looking so "fall" because the September BeeBox is absolutely perfect for a fall dress! … Continue reading September BeeBox – VHCO
Skirt/Shorts = Culottes
I'm missing the warmer weather already! I sewed up the Mama Cora Culottes about two weeks ago in testing and it was so much warmer even then. But anyway...I can totally wear them with tights for the fall, so that's good! Because I love these. Made for Mermaids released this pattern the other day to … Continue reading Skirt/Shorts = Culottes
