If you’ve been reading my blog for awhile, you’ll know that each year I try and pick a word that I can reflect on throughout the year. In 2010, my word was trust. It ended up being a difficult year for me in that area but nonetheless, I appreciated getting to reflect on what trust [...]

Love these little weekend getaways. Nothing recharges me the way hanging out, relaxing and sewing seems to. This is the third time we have been able to get away and craft this year (read about the first and second times). We revisited the Wimberly Quilt Ranch once more and Amanda from My Sewcial Hour wrote [...]

OK, a couple confessions. I hate going to stores to shop. I like to shop online. And even then I don’t like spending money. Lately, I have been refashioning more and more clothing that I already have in my closet. My most recent update has been very satisfying because it’s become such a staple in [...]

Can’t get enough skirts lately! Found this one on pinterest . . . it’s another Paperbag Skirt tutorial. I used quilting cotton and I’m not sure how I feel about it. It wrinkles really easily.

Here’s what I saw on pinterest: So I took a trip to JoAnn’s (50% coupon in hand) and bought 2 yards of black jersey interlock fabric and decided to take a shot at trying to recreate this dress. I haven’t sewn much clothing for myself, so picking something fairly shapeless and cinched with a belt [...]

I told you I would show you some of the details of the items I made at the sewcial retreat, so here we go! One of the items that people commented on most were the dresses I made for two flower girls. If I had been thinking, I would have snapped a couple pictures of the [...]

One of my good friends often cleans out her closet and bequeaths me with her hand me downs. I love this arrangement! Sometimes though, I’ll get something from her that I really like . . . except for this one thing. In this case, I loved the fabric and colors in this dress. It was [...]
