Fulton Sweater Blazer

January 23, 2019 by Tori 1 Comment
Fulton Sweater Blazer by Alina Design Co.

The Fulton Sweater Blazer is another one of the patterns I bought during it’s release week because it was just too good!! Alina knocks it out of the park with all of her patterns, and they are all perfect basics for anyone’s wardrobe. I knew the Fulton was another great pattern since so many people already … [Read more…]

Perkins Shirt + Indiesew Fabric

December 12, 2018 by Tori 2 Comments

There are few patterns that I buy immediately on release day, but the Perkins Shirt by Ensemble Patterns was one of them. When I saw it, I immediately thought of this shirt on my Pinterest board (which may or may not have been her inspiration, who knows), and I had to have it. But first, let’s … [Read more…]

Mandy Boat Tee – Navigating the New Sizes

November 21, 2018 by Tori 2 Comments
Mandy Boat Tee by Tessuti Fabrics

Most of the things I’ve been making lately have been on my list for so long, but I can honestly say that I didn’t really plan on making the Mandy Boat Tee (FREE PDF pattern!) until a few months ago when I heard on the Love To Sew Podcast that the hosts, Caroline and Helen, really … [Read more…]

Nikko Top + Indiesew

November 12, 2018 by Tori Leave a Comment

I was in love with the Nikko Top by True Bias when it was released and I had this exact version (short sleeved) in my head. I was nervous to make it, though, because I completely hated turtlenecks when I was little. I also don’t really like things around my neck most of the time, except … [Read more…]

Kalle Shirt + Style Maker Fabrics

July 17, 2018 by Tori 9 Comments
Kalle Shirt by Closet Case Files

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…]

Carolyn Top with D+H Fabrics Co

June 25, 2018 by Tori 6 Comments

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…]

Strathcona Henley

June 16, 2018 by Tori 2 Comments
Strathcona Henley by Thread Theory

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…]

Bonn Dress with Indiesew

May 14, 2018 by Tori 3 Comments
Bonn Dress by Itch to Stitch

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…]

My 3 Favorite Knit T-Shirt Patterns

April 30, 2018 by Tori 6 Comments
Panama Tee by Alina Design Co.

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…]

Patti Pocket Skirt + theDelhiStore

April 17, 2018 by Tori 2 Comments

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…]
