A Little Bit of Selfless Sewing

I did quite a bit of selfless sewing in April, so I thought I would lump it all into one post for those who are interested.

She and my … Continue reading “A Little Bit of Selfless Sewing”

Panama Tee Dress [Half sleeve, view B]

I am dubbing this my favorite pattern of all time. (Sorry to the rest of the pattern world.)
