I'd like to think that I'm not a prude, but posting photos of my underthings online (not even me wearing said underthings) gives me low level anxiety, so maybe I am a bit prudish? But I will post this because I'm really happy with how this turned out and proud that I've cracked into another … Continue reading Bramaking: Trying it out with the Jordy Bralette
Baby Tuxedo Pattern
Hello, everyone! Gosh, it's been a long time hasn't it! I am so sorry about the silence over here on my end! I wasn't aware that when you add a third child to the mix, the hours you have in a day decrease by about ten, but somehow they do. Don't ask me the physics … Continue reading Baby Tuxedo Pattern
Waterfall Raglans: Halloween Butterfly Edition
To be completely honest, I don't love Halloween. I don't hate it. I know it's beloved American holiday that's not going anywhere. And I do enjoy the chocolate. So it's not all bad. I just don't love the scary/spooky aspect. That's not really my flavor. So I'm very grateful for my girls' version of Halloween … Continue reading Waterfall Raglans: Halloween Butterfly Edition
Nursing Nightgown (a Recklessly Hacked Hinterland)
Well, if I've ever made a hack job of a sewing project, this would be it. I threw caution (and level headedness) to the wind and just went for it to make this nursing nightgown. I am sharing this project because, in the end, it turned out. But for anyone wanting to replicate it, just … Continue reading Nursing Nightgown (a Recklessly Hacked Hinterland)
Kiddo #3: He’s here!
He's here! Our sweet baby boy finally came (yes, technically he was a few days early, but, believe me, I was ready for him to come). Labor was long (I am good at a lot of things. Labor is not one of them) but all in all things went well and he's been healthy and … Continue reading Kiddo #3: He’s here!
Things I’ve Been Sewing
I know I've whined ad nauseum about how little I've been sewing (sorry!), but looking back I have done some nice little sewing projects over this year that probably don't deserve a post all on their own, but can't hurt to mention briefly. So here's a super post of some of the sewing projects I … Continue reading Things I’ve Been Sewing
Lately
Hello, everyone! I thought that maybe it was time for a little update on happenings around here! First and foremost, hello, September! I can now say that I am due this month and that is a very good feeling. Yes, I am exhausted and tired of being pregnant and all those things but we are … Continue reading Lately
Five Ways to Improve Sewing Skills {Without Actually Sewing}
Oh man, I'm really sorry about the lapse in posts over the last while! I had no intention of neglecting the blog so much but we've had a busy few weeks with a good amount of traveling. I've mentioned I'm not sewing as much lately AND I only have so much energy in the day! … Continue reading Five Ways to Improve Sewing Skills {Without Actually Sewing}
More Racerback Dresses
There is something about an impending baby that makes you want to clean all the things. We've had some visitors this month so I figured it was as good a time as any to go through the list of areas I've been wanting to dejunk. One of those areas was my fabric stash. I went … Continue reading More Racerback Dresses
Shoes
This post is waaaaay outside my norm. I've been thinking about how I've gotten a pretty good handful of new shoes over the last year and a half or so. Most of these were purchased only after months (sometimes years) of debate. I am not an impulse shopper by any means. I know there are … Continue reading Shoes
