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 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
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
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
I recognize this might not be the most exciting post but I don't care! I'm excited about it and I guess that's what matters since it's my blog haha. I rubbed off my very favorite RTW tee shirt and it turned out near perfectly! I know, I know! It's a tee shirt! Big whoop! But … Continue reading Rubbing Off My Favorite Tee
This is my first time making this pattern but I can tell you with full confidence that I will be making it again and again. It is a gem of a pattern! I've taken to asking, "Will it Mave?" to any fabric I come across and I'd say most of the time the answer is, … Continue reading A Mave Skirt
I allllmost made this dress in the spring which would have lined up fabric to season pretty well. But then I didn't. And I just got around to realizing that that was a pretty silly choice, so in an effort to rectify my misguidedness, I decided to go forth and make! I got going on … Continue reading New Look 6651: Casual Shirtdress
Sorry for all the bottoms posts but that's what I've been seriously lacking in my wardrobe and as a result what I've been focusing on in my sewing lately. Pants and shorts all up in here. Maybe someday we'll return to other items...maybe. I was really wanting some shorts that fit into the magical realm … Continue reading Deer and Doe Goji Shorts…but Knee Length
