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
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
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
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
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

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

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
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
'Tis the season for sweaters, so I made a couple. And I've gotta say that I really love how they both turned out! No new concepts here and I used some very nice fabrics so, all in all, it was an easy win! First I made this blue sweater to test out my pattern hacking … Continue reading A Couple Sweatshirts (Union St. Tee Sweatshirt Hack)
Officially: I love this dress! This is the Davenport Dress by Friday Pattern Company. It is not a new pattern but one that was somehow lost to my knowledge until this last summer. When I unearthed it under someone else's layers of blog posts, I really liked it. And then the more iterations I saw, … Continue reading A Davenport Dress in Liberty London
