I finally, finally, finally made myself another Mave Skirt! If anyone forced me to name a singular goal from the last few months that goal would be to get myself another Mave as soon as possible! The first Mave I made (this green floral maxi) has quickly become a favorite among the things I wear. … Continue reading Watercolor Mave Skirt
Athletic Hudson Pants
Hallelujah! After some lackluster sews, I'm happy to report that I have a couple successes under my belt that I'll gladly be sharing with you guys! First off is this pair of Hudson pants. And yes, they might be a basic black pair of joggers but I really do love how they turned out and … Continue reading Athletic Hudson Pants
An Adrienne-esque Top
Happy March, everyone! As I'm writing this post, my town is being positively pummeled with snow and we just completed the tenth snow day as called by the school district. TEN!!! I am so ready for some warmer weather! I wish I could say all these snow days have given me tons of time to … Continue reading An Adrienne-esque Top
LLK Galena: Dresses for my Girls
Sewing has been so weird for me lately and it has just felt like I fail and then turn around to fail again. Frankly, I was getting pretty tired of this! But I made each of my girls a dress and they turned out so well! I'm hoping I can get a win like this … Continue reading LLK Galena: Dresses for my Girls
McCalls 8248: Pleated skirt
A couple weekends ago my brother-in-law set up a trip for my sister and I to spend a weekend together in Atlanta, Georgia for her birthday. The trip was short and sweet and glorious. We spent two, kid-free days hiking, eating delicious foods, exploring, and enjoying the wonderment of getting in the car and going, … Continue reading McCalls 8248: Pleated skirt
Waffle Crop Marlo
Hey! I made myself another Marlo! I wish I could just leave the post there because I feel like the above could only be construed as good news. But in reality, I made some really stupid mistakes on this Marlo. So no, it's not all good news from here on out. Eventually, and what you'll … Continue reading Waffle Crop Marlo
Mini Marlos
I made my girls some mini Marlo cardigans. Now, before you get too excited, True Bias does not, as of yet, have a mini version of the Marlo pattern. Unfortunately. I checked first thing when I had the thought to make slouchy cardigans for the girls. If they had the pattern in mini, my job … Continue reading Mini Marlos
Best and Worst Makes of 2022
Blogging, sewing and wearing me-mades this year has been a little bit of a process for me mostly because of my postpartum journey. However, I've been feeling like I'm getting back to my normal which is awesome. I sew, blog and wear things I make because it typically brings me joy. I'm grateful to be … Continue reading Best and Worst Makes of 2022
Merry Christmas!
Hello, everyone! I, unfortunately, am not the person who typically sends out Christmas cards mostly because I don't put it as high enough of a priority that it actually gets done in a timely manner. However, this year, I realized I didn't have to plan too far ahead, lick envelopes, or wipe the post office … Continue reading Merry Christmas!
Holiday Mave Skirt
For lots of years I've had more of a minimalist attitude toward those items that get only a couple uses in a year. When space is limited, why keep a Christmas sweater in my closet only to be pulled out once or twice in December? For me, it's mostly been a space issue. We don't … Continue reading Holiday Mave Skirt
