So I’ve been debating about what sort of Cambie dress to make. I actually made the Renfrew top last weekend but haven’t had a chance to take pictures yet. I will try and do that this weekend. Anyhow, I’ve seen so many Cambies that I love online. I found this great site called Flickriver which…
DetailsBack in college, my mom and I made the duvet cover below. This was thick upholstery fabric. It didn’t really fit in my dorm room, but it was so regal looking. I felt like Shirley Temple in The Little Princess after the guy brings her that plush comforter. Not that my dorm room was nearly…
DetailsYay! My Sewaholic patterns came today. I’m so excited! Ever since I saw the Cambie dress on Sew Busy Lizzy, I’ve been eyeing the Sewaholic patterns. When I went to the Sewaholic website, I also loved the jacket and knit shirt patterns as well. I tried to hold out for sale, and wouldn’t you know…
DetailsI love bunting. I think it’s awesome. I wanted some festive decorations for Hanuka last winter so I decided to make bunting. Even though I love bunting, you’ll be surprised to know that this was the first time I’ve made it! I basically just added tabs to letters in Silhouette studio and then added a…
DetailsApparently there were lots of New Year’s Eve/Day sales which I totally missed. I assumed things would be closed. We called and Eddie’s Quilting Bee was open so we made the trek over there since I love going to fabric stores with my mom. We were in luck. They had some of the cutest Hanukkah…
DetailsFor New Year’s Eve, I decided to make a traditional Norwegian celebration cake. It’s called kransekake which literally translates to “wreath cake” and you’ll soon see why. My husband’s family enjoys one at Christmas every year and we had one at our wedding. My parents really like it so I figured why not make one…
DetailsMy grandmother just redid her kitchen and got some fancy new curtains. However, some of them were a bit too long so I shortened them for her. There was quite a bit of fabric leftover so I decided to make her a matching oven mitt. I’ve been meaning to make an oven mitt for a…
DetailsIt has been many moons since I last posted. About 4 if we’re counting. It’s not that nothing has been happening. Rather the opposite — too much has been happening! I haven’t had time to breathe let alone sit down and post. But hopefully (fingers crossed!) things should be calming down at least a little…
DetailsI fixed my issues. Lunarpages wasn’t much help in this case, but fortunately my debugging skills are strong 🙂 As it turns out, it had nothing to do with the upgrade to WordPress 3.3.1. At the same time as the upgrade, I had been fiddling with some other settings that had tried to install some…
DetailsWe are having some issues with our wordpress upgrade and will have them sorted out shortly. But that’s why there aren’t any images at the moment. Hopefully Lunarpages will get back to me soon to help me diagnose the problem.
