I’ve been wanting to make the Ebony Tee Dress by Closet Case Patterns for a while now. It’s a simple swing dress pattern and I know it’s super easy to make any t-shirt or dress a swing dress, but I always feel more comfortable using a pattern for some reason. I love that the Ebony Tee has the two neckline … Continue reading “Ebony Tee with Invisible Zippers [Nursing Friendly]”
Okay. My love for this pattern is no joke, and it doesn’t end here. This is view C of the Panama Tee Dress by Alina Design Co. View C is the maxi length, and it flares out a little bit so that even though it’s long, it’s still easy to walk in. I think next time I make the dress this … Continue reading “Panama Tee Dress [View C, Short Sleeve]”
I am dubbing this my favorite pattern of all time. (Sorry to the rest of the pattern world.) I know I’m not the only one that drools over Sonnet James dresses (linking in case you have no idea what I’m talking about) every time Whitney releases a new collection. The dresses she designs are so simple, comfortable, and the majority of them are … Continue reading “Panama Tee Dress [Half sleeve, view B]”
When I was pregnant, I didn’t really think about the way I was going to feed Braden. I knew that nursing was a natural and healthy option for feeding him, but I was grateful to know there were backup options (like formula) if I had any problems. I had heard so many different moms who said that nursing is the best … Continue reading “You Do You, Mommy”
It’s no surprise that I LOVE this dress. This the Wren from Colette Patterns. I bought the fabric last summer from a shop in the LA Fashion District. I was so excited to finally use it, and it was perfect for this dress! I know wrap dresses are sort of “trending” right now, but I have always loved wrap dresses, … Continue reading “Wren Dress”
Ring slings are really popular because they are comfortable and so easy to use. I have already used mine to go grocery shopping, go for walks, tour the city, and go out to lunch. I basically use it when I go out and would rather just carry my baby, or at home when they are fussy and my arms are getting … Continue reading “DIY Ring Sling – Sewing Tutorial”
I don’t have a question for this week because it’s already late on Tuesday and I’m no quitter. I’m currently feeding a hungry baby and I’ve been sick since Sunday with a horrible cold – That should NOT be aloud when you have an almost two month old. But since there’s not much I can do about that I just … Continue reading “Grati-Tuesday”
What place are you most grateful for? I am most grateful for home – where ever that is at the moment. I’ve moved quite a few times, so I’m not really fond of the question “Where are you from?”, but I do like the places I’ve lived and the people I’ve been able to meet from moving so many times. … Continue reading “Grati-Tuesday”
Saturday, November 26 – It’s a no go. The Saturday after Thanksgiving, I started having contractions. Since Dallas’s whole family was at his grandparents house (where we live), they were all super excited that I would have the baby while they were all there. We went to Labor & Deliver (L&D) Saturday morning with contractions that weren’t very bad, but … Continue reading “Braden Danger’s Birth Story”
I have been slacking on the Grati-Tuesday posts for the past two weeks because having a newborn is a little bit of a whirlwind. I was so grateful that my mom stayed to help with Braden all of last week. As we were sitting on the back porch on Tuesday (the day after we got back from the hospital), I couldn’t … Continue reading “Grateful Every Day”
