My 3 Favorite Knit T-Shirt Patterns

This blog post has been updated! – Click here to see the new post Ever since December, when I finished sewing a mini capsule wardrobe (basically) for my mom, I really wanted to get a few knit t-shirts made for myself. Since it’s been cold, I stocked up on Cheyenne Tunics and Lane Raglans, but now that it’s started to … Continue reading “My 3 Favorite Knit T-Shirt Patterns”

Patti Pocket Skirt + theDelhiStore

I am so excited to be a part of the Patti Pocket Skirt Blog Tour, and finally get to show you mine! I have been eyeing this skirt pattern since the day Amy released it because it is so pretty, but it does have some different design elements that I was a little bit skeptical about. I had seen so … Continue reading “Patti Pocket Skirt + theDelhiStore”

No Sweat Pants + Blackwood Cardigan

I know we are all dying for spring to get here, but a good majority of people probably still have some cold days ahead. So I’m really excited to share my last cozy makes with you to help you last through until it’s officially warm every day. Indiesew recently released the “No Sweat” Pants with their Seamly Spring Collection. These … Continue reading “No Sweat Pants + Blackwood Cardigan”

Avery Leggings + Pine Crest Fabrics

I have been wanting to make leggings for a while now, but a lot of people in the sewing community seem pretty skeptical about leggings patterns. There are a few that people have told me patterns that they love, but an almost equal amount of people who have decided to stick to buying RTW leggings. I wanted to try making … Continue reading “Avery Leggings + Pine Crest Fabrics”

Fringe Dress

I have had the Fringe Dress cut out since last September, and it has just been nagging at me for months to just finish sewing it all together! It did turn into winter after I got it all cut out, so I wouldn’t have been able to wear it very much anyways, but I’m so glad to have it finished … Continue reading “Fringe Dress”

Cheyenne Tunic

One of my goals for this year was to make a button up shirt. I had the Cheyenne Tunic on my “make nine” last year, but I chickened out and made excuses. I was SO happy when Allie announced that January would be Indiesew’s “Shirt Month”! I immediately decided that this was the year, and January was the month! I didn’t start making … Continue reading “Cheyenne Tunic”

Key Largo Shift Dress

The past couple of years I have had good intentions to make things for different holidays, and it just never happened! (Being pregnant and having a newborn tend to throw off your groove a little.) But at the end of 2017, I was like – This is the year!! I finally have my normal body back, and my baby still … Continue reading “Key Largo Shift Dress”

Key Largo Top vs. Scout Tee

Last week I made muslins of two very popular woven tee patterns, and after having quite a few people interested in a comparison post — here it is! In this post I’m going to be comparing the Scout Tee by Grainline Studio and the Key Largo Top by Hey June. I thought about doing a ‘pros and cons’ list of … Continue reading “Key Largo Top vs. Scout Tee”

Panama Tee Dress [long sleeve + side slits]

I’m just not going to quit you guys. There are just too many good variations of this dress and altering this pattern is just too easy. So I hope you are loving this almost as much as I am. 😉 The Panama Tee and I are like cookies and ice cream, burgers and fries, babies and puppies — you get me? … Continue reading “Panama Tee Dress [long sleeve + side slits]”

The Lane Raglan [Neckline Adjustment]

I recently unpacked all of my long sleeve shirts (all like 7 of them) and basically got rid of all of them, except a sweater I bought in the men’s section of Kohl’s last year, and a couple of button down shirts that aren’t particularly warm. I think I have gotten rid of almost every shirt in my closet after … Continue reading “The Lane Raglan [Neckline Adjustment]”
