Last week I “focused” mostly on drawing and creating patterns, so that was fun and something different. It seems like I need to change up on what I am working on or else I get bored and just don’t want to work on things. I have definitely hit a wall with my sewing lately. I […]
I am a sucker for red fabrics. Anything I can mix with black usually ends up in my shopping cart, since I wear it so much. Having my kids’ school colors as red and black definitely helps, since I try to wear the fan colors at their tournaments and games. This is the Flash lightning […]
This was my top for the Pride round at Fabric Anthropology. When I got sent the fabric I was a little concerned by how “colorful” it was. If you haven’t noticed…I tend to wear a lot of neutral colors…and red. So…I thought about what kind of design I wanted to make that would still be […]

The fabric was donated by Fabric Anthropology, and it is a large 72″ x 60″ blanket with custom fabric on both sides. The proceeds from the auction will go to The Trevor Project and Point of Pride.

I made a few tops for fall that I knew would get used in heavy rotation. I was missing some basic layering tops, and that was just silly. I have plenty of fabric…hello! I like to have longer tops to go with my leggings for booty coverage. For all of these I used the Sneha […]
I was actually able to get some things done last week. It was so nice! I didn’t have much work work to do, so I got some cleaning and organizing done around the house. It will start to pick up a bit more, so I am glad I was able to sneak that in. My […]
My husband has been working from home as his office is being renovated, which really makes me finish up my work and leave the office faster! He is on calls a lot, and right now my job is slowing to a crawl while I wait on other people…and really just don’t have much to do […]
I do tend to fall back on styles that I really like to wear a lot. Right now I am working from home, so comfort is key! I am trying to be better about not looking like a total slob, but sometimes the effort is tough. It is easy when I have comfortable pieces to […]
My accomplishments Focus Photo – First snow of the season! Sewing – I finally got to share the Fabric Anthropology makes I had worked on this past month: The Warrior Into the Woods #makenine progress: The first outfit above has the bolero that was on my #makenine, so now I have 4 out of 9 […]
In my editorial photoshoot I did for the Fabric Anthropology Fashion Week line, I made my headpiece. I was going full on gothic with this outfit, so a headpiece with feathers was a must. I WAS NOT trying to create a caricature of a tribal headpiece, which in my research I did not find one […]
