This shirt took me about 2 years to finish. I actually started it during the same Lauren Taylor workshop as this shirt. Basically I’m fast (when I want to be)(at sewing, not taking photos . . . obviously) and don’t really need the full three days. So on the third day I started a new one…
This is my first finished knit top! I crocheted a sweater a while back, but this was the first non-hat/scarf knit garment I made. I’m really pleased with how it came out! I did it as part of a virtual knitalong with Alison of Uncommon Threads and used Sami by Amano yarn which I also got…
I have another pattern test to show you! This is the Flawesome Cut Out Top (and dress, but I only made the top for the test) by Pattern Emporium and it was just released today! It’s a fun top with a little bit of an edgy vibe due to the cut out on top. I probably…
Okay, I’ve got one more (for now) Tank Dress: 3-Ways by Pattern Emporium for you. In my previous post I go into how much I love about the pattern. But now I want to show you some of the extra fun things you can do. The dress above — right, I know my dog steals…
I was super excited to be chosen as a pattern tester for the recent release of the Tank Dress: 3-Ways by Pattern Emporium. I’ve used Pattern Emporium patterns before and found them to be quite well designed so I was looking forward to seeing the testing process and being involved in making one of…
Technically I made this last year so I figured it’s about time I post it. I really need to get more timely, but then again it’s my blog so I guess I can post whenever I want. This is the Grainline Linden Sweatshirt. Although it’s labeled as a sweatshirt, just about everyone I know who…
Rumor has it that it’s French Macaron Day. I have no idea who decides when “days” are for various things, but I’ve been meaning to post this dress for a while anyways so today is as good a day as any. This is the Seamwork (formerly Colette) Myrtle dress. The fabric is Spoonflower’s Performance Piqué printed…
Here’s another super old project that I’m just getting around to posting. These photos are from . . . 2017? Yeah, super old. Well, this will be a quick post. And nevermind what I’m wearing in the photos. I’m gardening. I’m not going to be wearing my finest duds when I’m playing in the dirt.…
Yeah, so this one is long overdue for posting. This is the Grainline Archer Button Up Shirt which I made at a workshop with Lauren Taylor at Hello Stitch Studio which is the cutest and most welcoming studio you’ve ever been to. If I lived near them, they’d be like a second home. Also, you can see…
This was the final project for the other class I took at Cañada College Fashion Department, Designer Techniques in Sewing. This was such a fun class. We basically spent the semester learning cool and fun techniques you could do to a garment to move from the basic pattern to something that is more “you.” You’ll…
