Fennel Fanny Pack

I had a really rough go at my first attempt at the Fennel Fanny Pack by Sarah Kirsten. My frustrations stemmed from using too large of a seam allowance when I sewed the zippers on, and spiraled from there. SO, TAKE NOTE — When you sew the zippers, make sure you try the pieces up to the other pieces that … Continue reading “Fennel Fanny Pack”

Men’s Tropical Shirt

This Tropical Shirt (Wardrobe by Me) for Dallas has been cut out and sitting on my ironing board since MAY, and I finally finished it! He’s VERY happy about it, and it turned out great!

I already had a two pairs of Hudsons (black and grey), but I really wanted an olive green pair and another black … Continue reading “Maternity Capsule Wardrobe”
