If you can’t already tell — I LOVE this dress! I made a dress really similar to this one last fall (McCalls 7534), and I’m not sure if people were huge fans of it. It might have been because the fabric I chose was pretty bright, but that’s okay, because I STILL love that dress! … [Read more…]
I am so excited to share what Sara from The Sara Project and I have been working on for the last few months! We are hosting a Hinterland Sew-Off! We wanted to team up and do something fun that would include the sewing community and get everyone excited to make a pattern together. The Hinterland Dress … [Read more…]
I have been meaning to make this dress and write this blog post for…lots of months now, and I’m so excited to finally share it! After making the adjustments I needed to, this Charleston Dress fits like a GLOVE! I was so giddy with excitement when I was all done, and it fit so well. … [Read more…]
I first discovered the Reeta Midi Shirt Dress by Named a few months ago. I think I was searching for button up dress patterns because…I’m a little obsessed over here if you haven’t noticed. 😉 The pattern came out last February, so I don’t know how I missed it!

I have once again made a pattern that has been on my make list for a very long time now! And, since this is apparently The Year of the Buttons for me, the Kalle Shirt was high up on my list. This is another Closet Case Files pattern, just like my Carolyn Pajama Top from last month. … [Read more…]
Has everyone else been dying over the pajama top trend lately?! I LOVE the look styled with jeans. I’ll be honest that I don’t really dig it with matching PJ pants, but the tops separately is gorgeous. I love the piping and curved lapels, and I really don’t see how I could sleep in something … [Read more…]
I bought some fabric to make Dallas a shirt around 3 years ago, and it has been sitting at the bottom of my stash ever since …haunting me. Haha. I figured that I had put it off long enough, and I really wanted to try the Strathcona Henley ever since I discovered Thread Theory towards … [Read more…]
I have wanted to make the Bonn Dress by Itch to Stitch ever since it was part of the Indiesew Fall/Winter Collection in 2016. That was back when I was still really intimidated by button up shirts, so I figured it would be a while until I actually made it. I have heard SO many … [Read more…]
Ever since December, when I finished sewing a mini capsule wardrobe (basically) for my mom, I really wanted to get a few knit t-shirts made for myself. Since it’s been cold, I stocked up on Cheyenne Tunics and Lane Raglans, but now that it’s started to warm up in SoCal, I figure it is a … [Read more…]
I am so excited to be a part of the Patti Pocket Skirt Blog Tour, and finally get to show you mine! I have been eyeing this skirt pattern since the day Amy released it because it is so pretty, but it does have some different design elements that I was a little bit skeptical … [Read more…]
