Designer Neckties
I recently completed two neckties for my dad. He wears them on a daily basis. Each of them has a back story. Stories coming in the next few days.

Recently for my birthday there was a macaron making party because I love macarons and I like making macarons even more! So of course, since it was my birthday, I had to be dressed appropriately with a macaron apron. I found this fabulous fabric on Etsy. It’s cotton linen from Japan that is all…
I recently subscribed to the Colette patterns e-magazine Seamwork. For $6 per month, you get a digital magazine full of useful and informative articles (I’ve enjoyed both issues so far) and at least 2 patterns. The patterns are the type you should be able to do in a couple hours which is awesome. Because those…
Posting to keep track of all the unfinished objects I’m actually finishing. These were a pair of jeans that were too long. They probably languished in my UFO pile for nearly a year. But now they’re hemmed! I’ve already worn them twice this week! You might be able to see that my stitches look fine…

My college roommate is having her first baby (yay!) and was having a surprise shower this weekend. I would have loved to attend, but by the time I found out about it, my parents had been scheduled to visit me for many months so that was a no-go. However, I still wanted to give her…

I think the first time I found out about pettiskirts was this post on Make It Love It. However, she recommended AFC Express for nylon chiffon and on there I found…
So I finally unpacked my computer and hard drives so that I can manage pictures. Yay! Meanwhile, I have been starting to whittle away at my unfinished objects per this post. The first one I’ve completed is my laundry room curtains. These were the colors that were in the laundry room when we moved here.…
No, this has nothing to do with little green men (or women). It has to do with my UnFinished Objects. I recently found out about the blog LLadyBird and proceeded to devour her last year of posts. I love her blogging style. It cracks me up. Also she sews a lot. Her fashion style is…
