This was kind of fun to sew up! The constellation fabric for the skirt is on pre-order at RP Custom Fabrics. This sample is the 58″ round on bamboo lycra. She has a few other round panels, and they come in various sizes. The girl claimed it when she saw it, so I had to […]

When RP Custom Fabrics offered up these strike-offs for sewing up, I knew my time would be at a premium. Unfortunately, this past week and upcoming week, we are in the thick of games and tournaments. My poor kiddos are tired, tired, tired, but luckily school is almost out for them. It is hard to […]
Of course, that does not preclude me from volunteering to sew up samples. I currently have several strike-offs sitting on my sewing table that need to be sewn up. One is finished, but I do not have an available model. She has softball just about every night this week, so tomorrow I will have to […]
Last full week, which is good since I am getting tired of trying to get outfit pictures! I used to do outfit pictures daily, and I would usually just go home at lunch to do them. I haven’t been doing that very often lately, so I try to get them before leaving for work in […]

I like a good theme-centric project to get my wheels turning. This one was related to the intended fabric, which was inspired by the 1996 movie, The Craft. The plotline was centered around a group of girls that aspired to be witches, and luckily it was actually on Netflix so I could reacquaint myself with […]
Here we are at week #3, and my pictures from last week. I have a hard time getting pictures during the weekends. This weekend was super, super busy, too, so it just didn’t happen for the most part. Day #8 Draped shirt – not blogged Animal print skirt – can’t find the blogpost – I […]
The annual birthday outfit
By Stacy on May 10, 2017I generally try to sew something up for the girl for her birthday, since it is a special day. Having my birthday 2 weeks before Christmas makes you appreciate people actually remembering that you have a birthday. 😉 This was a last minute, start at 10:30pm and finish at 1 am, outfit. The fabric is […]
