Oh, I jest…sort of. This was one of the few nice warmish/hotish days we have had so far this summer. The subsequent days are supposed to be in the 70’s. Yuck! I want heat! We earned warmth after last winter! It has been decidedly cool, so I am usually wearing a sweater of some sort […]

I rarely wear suit jackets anymore, but this one is an exception. It has such a fun print when you roll up the sleeves! The top is the effect of karma. I have stated in the past that I have given away clothes I received from Zulily that were too small for me. Well, the […]
This was a pretty easy outfit to put together with all the matchy-matchy glory. As I was walking to my car in the parking lot of my office, a few ladies were walking into the office. I barely heard one say, “That’s a cute oufit”. I know she didn’t intend for me to hear her, […]
This outfit was from mid-May and it was still quite cool in our area. It actually still is cooler than we would like…summer seems to be slow in coming. We join a CSA (community supported agriculture) each summer and usually by this time we have had our first delivery of fresh organic veggies. We won’t […]
I seem to be on a roll! Well, if it is a roll that takes a lot of time, that is. These purses definitely are not for the faint of heart, and they take me a good 6-8 hours to make. A bit of hand sewing and piece work is required. I love how this […]
So…I have sewn a few other things over the past few months, but they are rather unimpressive. I put elastic into these shorts for the Girl. She is a skinny minny, and these shorts didn’t have the button elastic in them. I just opened up the waistband and threaded elastic into them. I got them […]
When I “decide” to draw things that I put on pieces of clothing or purses…I have a very loose idea of what I want. Most of the things I draw in less than a minute. Usually, it takes me about 10 seconds. I am all about being quick. I have bought sketch pads over the […]
You know if I could just get up earlier, I could get a few outfit pictures in the morning. But, NO. Sleep. I love sleep. 🙂 So…I do have something to show. A half-hearted picture of an outfit, but also…New Purse! That I made! I love how this one turned out. I upcycled an old […]
This is one of my favorite baby gifts to make. It takes just one yard each of minky and flannel and they are such plush blankies for babies. They are a great size for carseats and strollers in the wintertime, or anytime it is a bit cool out. Supplies needed: 1 yard flannel 1 yard […]
On Memorial Day weekend, I wanted to get something done sewing wise. Finally. My sewing room has been missing me. I have been avoiding it lately in favor of either reading, chores or working out. Too much to do and not enough time to do it. Story of our lives, right?? I have wanted to […]
