I have a couple new sews to show you today! Are you totally shocked that it's from Simple Life Pattern co.?? Not if you know me and my sewing addiction with SLPco patterns. I'm going to take a quick moment to rave about the company before showing you the new patterns. Just quick. I promise… Continue reading It’s Summertime! Time for Swimsuits!
Laela Jeyne Summer Collection Blog Tour
In our house we barely understand the word "blog" never mind "blog tour". So when I was asked by Cassie from Pearberry Lane if I would like to take part in a blog tour I knew I wanted to, but was instantly unsure about what I was doing. And I could tell my husband knew he… Continue reading Laela Jeyne Summer Collection Blog Tour
Adventure in the Bush
I can't believe I actually got this done!! Talk about waiting till the very last moment! Well, almost. It's my take on the theme "Adventure" for June's Project Run and Play sew along. Somehow I have ended up with a whole lot of things due to be completed right around the same time. This particular… Continue reading Adventure in the Bush
Baby Jaimesyn Beauty
When the tester call for this little dress from Simple Life Pattern Company came out I immediately put it out of my mind since my girls are clearly too old for this size range. And then a day before the fit pictures were due I ran across the post on FB once again and remembered that I had a… Continue reading Baby Jaimesyn Beauty
Colour Run 2017 with a Tutorial and a Giveaway!
Here I am, pretty excited about the idea of doing both my first tutorial and my first giveaway. However, as I've been preparing this I'm realizing that there's really no way to do this short and sweet. Tutorials take up some time and space, eh? So, if you need to run and do some laundry… Continue reading Colour Run 2017 with a Tutorial and a Giveaway!
#AGFMakersSpotlight Surprise
A few months ago I posted a picture on my IG account of a work in progress (dress skirt not yet attached to the bodice). Dear Eleri from Sew and Tell Project commented saying "You should add #agfmakersspotlight". I had no idea what that was so I tapped the link and that didn't really help!… Continue reading #AGFMakersSpotlight Surprise
Florals Month at PR&P
I've learned something about myself . And I'm not impressed. I've learned that when given lots of time to complete a project, I will probably waste it away. Give me 2 days and I will meet the challenge. But I don't like that! I like relaxed sewing! Why do I waste the relaxed sewing time and wait… Continue reading Florals Month at PR&P
Bags, Purses, Pettiskirts and My Friend Trish
I have gotten past the "first blog post" and in writing it all out I found the trip down memory lane quite fun. I found myself going through pictures of all the projects I’ve done over the last years and feeling a bit nostalgic. I’d almost forgotten how many purses and bags I have made.… Continue reading Bags, Purses, Pettiskirts and My Friend Trish
From the Beginning
So, as I sit here typing I'm wondering if I should rather jump up and do something else with my time. And such would be the thoughts that circle my brain every time I think "maybe today I'll start that blog". I've had these thoughts for years. Yup, years. I've often thought I'd love to… Continue reading From the Beginning
