After waiting five weeks for my sewing machine to be repaired, it’s back and I’m celebrating! I am offering 15% off the wrap dress (or custom order of the dress) until Friday, 30 october at midnight.
This is a wrap dress that is literally as unique as you are. There are dozens of looks that can […]

So, this is today’s project. I made this top from a rich, espresso brown, perfectly silky-satiny fabric with enough stretch to fit everywhere perfectly and make you feel oh-so-good-about-life type of fit. Yep, I love it. I had a plan for it too. The plan was to sell it. That was the plan until I […]

Well, it’s been a great week, Chris and I had wonderful birthdays, we had a fantastic holiday with friends yesterday, we ate way too much, I’ve sold both my wrap dress and shirt, and now it’s back to work! I’m going to try to get back into a healthier schedule than what we’ve kept these […]

Well, thanks to Heather at Crazyjaneknits, I have sold my first garment and I’ll be looking at fabrics this afternoon! I do hope she likes the little wrap dress.

There’s a bag of shirts in our closet. A bag of long sleeve, button down, mens’ shirts. I bought the shirts for Chris during the Thanksgiving sales but they were a weird fit and they’ve been sitting in a bag in our closet ever since.
I’ve been itching to do more sewing lately and I feel […]

This picture is of a historic moment in our lives. This is the entire beginning congregation of Castleview baptist church eating Chipotle burritos for the very first time together. It was Debbie’s first time eating from Chipotle and I think she found it tolerable. ;)
We had gone to a couple different churches today […]

I know I’ve been posting about this dress a lot lately, but that is what I’ve been working on… I’ve ordered some fabric samples that should come in on Wednesday or Thursday. I’m looking forward to seeing some nice knits and jersey fabric.

I promised a few more photos of the dress I made yesterday, and here they are. I took these in natural light and are much more accurate than my first post. As you can see, the dress is a beautiful brown, instead of a beautiful purple/pink. All of these photos are the same dress, […]
