Did everyone just buy the Lodo Dress by True Bias  as soon as it was released?? I totally did, and I was so excited when I saw a few people use this same fabric, just in different colorways. I was pretty set on making this fabric into something else, but it was perfect for the Lodo and I’m SO glad … Continue reading “Lodo Dress”
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”
