So…I got some sewing done! Whoop, whoop! I even took pictures for a tutorial on how to make one of these bad boys, since I have made so many of them. It is my current favorite baby gift. They are easy and so fuzzy! These blankets take about an hour to make and I would […]
I volunteered to help with a post at Daisy Chain Creations, where she has the series Sowing While you Sew. It is about teaching your kids to sew, which she has had some fun projects. The Girl and I made a tote bag, so come check it out!
That time of year again… I usually take an annual glammed up self portrait around my birthday. A nice picture of me that I can frame up for the hubby and just for posterity’s sake. I usually forget to print them, though. This year I actual have several “self portraits” due to this blog, but […]
More jeans! She wanted a pair of purple pants (amazingly…not black) and luckily I had about 3 yards of purple corduroy. These things are not quick to make, unfortunately. At least now she has some more pants! (Sorry, I quick took pictures and the color is still a bit off. Plus…I am learning a new […]
Hey, I have it done on time! Go me! This week’s theme is an outfit for Valentine’s Day. The Girl is all about hearts, so this is a good one for her. The top is a self-drafted top. I drew up a heart stencil using freezer paper and fabric paint. Then, I filled in one […]
So…yeah…work has been kicking my fanny this year. I have been taking my computer home most days, so sewing at night has not been happening. Now I am really glad that I didn’t get a place in this season’s line up. I would be soooo stressed out! Okay, Week 3 for Project Run and Play […]
How sweet is that to hear, huh?? I can count on my hubs complementing me on how I look about once a month if I am lucky, but I guess we have been married almost 15 years. The expectations are low at this point. 😉 The hair is a spin-off of this style at Hair […]
Well, I managed to complete a dress in time for the first challenge. Despite my seams being all gnarly due to some issue with my tension. Go me! Don’t look at the seams too close! The dress is supposed to be a remix of this dress. While the Princess told me earlier this week that […]
…And in the winter-time, that is important! Everyday when I get to my office, I turn on my (non-fire code compliant) heater underneath my desk. Even in the summer. I like to be warm, and 75-80 degrees feels about right to me. We don’t have our house that warm, though. We keep the temperature around […]
This was a Monday outfit for a three day workweek. Comfy, professional and not too fussy. Oh, and I straightened my hair on a Monday. This rarely happens. I tend to not take the 15 minutes needed to straighten my hair more than a few times a month. Look at how long it is getting! […]
