When I was thinking about my wardrobe capsule, I wanted to use what I had in my fabric stash. This was not hard, as I have a lot. I have been drawn to lighter colors these days, so I took out my creamy neutrals and started planning the individual pieces I was going to make. […]
Pattern test/review of Sneha Tunic and Dress by Wardrobe by Me (the pattern is on sale for a week at $7) When this test came up, I was already in the midst of a few other tests wrapping up. I just couldn’t NOT throw my hat in the ring, though. I love this top, and it […]
Next week I have plans to participate in Free Notion Spring Wardrobe Capsule. This weekend, I will be (hopefully) cutting out my fabric in preparation for sewing. I have a need for basic tops for spring for work. I don’t have many that fit me right now (grew out of my old ones), and last summer […]
I wasn’t sure what I wanted to make my strike-off’s up in, so as I was thinking about it a pattern test came out from Sofilantjes. It is called the Hibernis Cowl Shirt, and it was perfect for this fabric. I wanted to color block, and this just turned out so well for my fabrics. […]
Over my Christmas/New Year’s break I had time to sit and do some loom beading. When I string my loom I tend to try to do as much as I can, since it takes a lot of string to get it set up. So…first I loomed all of these bad boys, and then I put […]
As I didn’t get much done over my annual two week break at the end of the year, I shall give you old stuff! I like to look back and see what I got finished in the past year. It was a fairly decent year, but no where near my most prolific. Stuff for the […]
As part of a charity project for the kids at the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation, we had a specific challenge to get some boy gifts made up. Since my son has a ton of little cars, this was the perfect gift. I went through the big bin and picked out cars that looked new. It […]
Here is another designs I made. This one is probably going to be worn the most! Striped Flowers in Lavender – This is a mixture of Iris, Roses and Dahlias in the same shades. This was printed on Satin, and scaled to print at 4″ x 4″. The satin is a bit thin, so I like […]
I just had to make another infinity scarf, since I love the first one so much. This time I used a less dense yarn, so it took the entire two skeins (94 yards each) for this scarf. It ended up at around 22″ wide. In making these two different ones, it seems that the thickness […]
We have another tester pattern for Simple Life Pattern Company. It was released today, and you can find it here. This is the Saige Dress, and I rather like how it was put together. It is a knit, with a lined bodice, so you can use some thinner knits on it. If you do use […]
