I made another couple of things for SEWN recently, and though they’re not for me, I think they’re worth sharing. I’ve really enjoyed making things for this store even if they don’t end up selling (I hope they do!). It’s good to work with fabrics that I love even if they aren’t things that I…
DG Patterns’ Addison Skirt and Mother’s Day Aprons
Happy Mother’s Day! In honor of the day, I’ve been up to a lot of Mommy and Me business this week. First up is DG Patterns’ Addison Skirt. DG Patterns’ Addison Skirt I’m really making more of an effort to have make more skirts. It’s hard to deny how polished you look in them. DG…
Aprons through time
Do you have a type of garment that you’ve made consistently throughout your sewing life? Aprons are one of those things that I’ve made throughout my sewing experience. I use them everyday for all of my artsy messes and for my cooking which are two other things I’ve always done too. My earliest memories are…
DIY Lion hoodie and Very Shannon Sally Dress
This diy lion hoodie and Very Shannon Sally dress are two of the projects I’ve made for my kids of late. The dress was for Easter, though I’m just getting around to writing it up now, and the lion hoodie is the result of a challenge a sewing friend gave me. DIY Lion Hoodie One…
Wardrobe Sudoku Me Made May and Turmeric Peach Smoothie pajamas
It’s that time of year when So Zo hosts Me Made May. It’s always hard to come up with a new spin on Me Made May, especially since nearly everything I wear I’ve made at this point. This year, it seems Wardrobe Sudoku happened at a good time to give me some inspiration. I’ll be…

Old vs. new The Donna Karan wrap top (Vogue 2064) is an old pattern. There’s 32 reviews on Patternreview written from 2004-2014. I’ve meant to make…
Dress like your Grandma: vintage back button blouse and high waist pencil skirt
If you hadn’t heard, I placed 2nd in the Wardrobe Sudoku contest. This makes for my first Patternreview voted win, so I’m proud for that! I’m going to use my Sawyer Brook gift card towards some tailoring supplies I’ll need for a very special project for my husband later this year. A big big thank…
Tops that Pop sew along: a quick refashion
Do you read Faye’s Sewing Adventure? Of course you do. If you do it’s because like me, you are constantly wondering what this prolific blogger is up to. Even if she’s just writing a line or two, Faye always manages to ask engaging questions, and she generously responds. When she announced her Tops that Pop…
Wardrobe Sudoku 2017
Whew, these last 2 months have been a haul! I didn’t expect or plan at first to enter this contest. 10 garments seems like a really big commitment, but in the end, the projects that I’ve been working on kept fitting in the same color scheme. Aside from writing and picture taking, the pace of…
Sea Glass Denim Jacket
I’m pretty sure this Sea Glass Denim jacket was the whole reason I decided to attempt Wardrobe Sudoku at all this year. This is a project I’ve wanted to make for 3 years now. I could blame my procrastination on pregnancy or the time it took to find the right fabric, but anyhow, the time…
