Remember when I said that I was fine with the sleeves ties of this dress being kind of (too) longish? Well I guess that was a lie because I kept thinking about those dang sleeve ties after I posted ...
Thank you for your “get well” wishes–I’m feeling much better today with the exception of the occasion coughing fit. I had to leave the house to drop off some packages at the ...
I’ve been terribly sick all weekend and now that it’s Monday I’ve had to drag myself out of bed to try to have a normal workday and now I’m considering braving this rainstorm ...
Work has been so busy, I’m seriously behind in my sewing! But I can’t really complain, work is good. But I guess I’ve been so consumed by it that I completely missed my Burdastyle ...
How cool is this? Have you seen it before? (via Happiness is…blog)
Happy 2012! I’m starting the year off right by sharing not one but two projects I recently completed. Today is the first official day back to work and I’m simply not ready so I’m po...
I just ran up and down the hallway 5 times with Spoo Kee on my heels (so that he’ll attack me with his hilarious Matrix moves) so I need to catch my breath before I continue on with the gibberi...
I really thought I’d have a sewing project to share (I’m making another Built by Wendy #3835 dress, this time with the sleeve ties!) but I simply don’t have time to finish it before...
I hope everyone is enjoying the holiday season so far! I haven’t been a very good blogger lately and posting has been sporadic the last month or two, even for me. In a nutshell life has been ...

I finished a scarflette. Don’t you love the color? If you follow along on Facebook you probably know that I got a treadle sewing machine. Singer model 115, 1921. Bought it from the original ...
Thank you to those who entered in this giveaway! Without further ado, the winner is #2…Bunny!
Also don’t forget, the Holiday Haberdashery Giveaway ends this Sunday 10p PST. Happy Weekend!
I made this dress several weeks ago, strictly on a whim, inspired by a wee baby’s dress I found at a yard sale and a blouse spied on Pinterest (via Casey). In my excitement and haste, I went a...
Hi peeps! Last month on my Facebook page I briefly mentioned doing a haberdashery giveaway and it’s finally up! I have an abundance of craft supplies–I could probably open a little shop!...
Everyone has idiosyncrasies and I’d like to share a particularly silly one of mine with you. I rarely remove my wedding ring but I will, on occasion, and I most certainly take off my engagement...
Last year I picked up a couple of vintage dresses that needed some serious altering before I could wear them. Recently I decided to take a break from fall sewing to make the necessary changes; I don...
I hope everyone had a nice weekend! Because of our Labor Day holiday here in the U.S. I was able to finish up some sewing that has been sitting around since my last fall outfit post. Once again, thi...
I feel as though I have not posted in ages, it feels a bit awkward right now. Nor have I sewn in what seems like the same length of time. Everything was business as usual last week, working on my n...
All I want to do is sew clothes. I have many ideas for other crafty projects, including shop stuff, but at the end of the day I just want to make a skirt or cut out a new blouse. Life has been a bi...
For the first time ever I’m planning out my sewing projects for the next season in advance so that they will complement each other. It’s fun in a sewing/fashion-nerd sort of way. I̵...
Don’t you love it when you are so inspired to do something that you have to do it RIGHT NOW? Several weeks ago I saw these 1930s floral-pattern and metallic shoes on Pinterest (from the Thought...
Before I embark on fall sewing (and Sleepy Hollow quilt-making) I want to continue finish up some projects I’ve already started. I cut out and begin to sew this little dress last fall from Sim...
Another summery project from my favorite skirt pattern, Simplicity 8418. This pattern is just so good, the possibilities are endless. (The green is not quite as vibrant as they are in these photos;...
This skirt must be shy because I had a heck of a time trying to photograph it! I think it has to do with the color or perhaps the fabric (err, or both). Overall I’m happy with the quality of t...
You may remember this dress from a post earlier last year. I loved how it turned out but found it too skimpy for me to wear outside of the house. Problem was, I didn’t have any more vintage h...
Happy Tuesday! How was your weekend? I spent the better part of mine sewing…I haven’t felt this productive sewing-wise in a long, long time. I’m pleased as punch with my new summ...
Good afternoon, all! I’ve been sewing up a storm. My creative spark has returned, at least to help liven up my summer wardrobe. Just when I think I’ve got the sewing bug out of my syst...
I hope your weekend is going well so far! It’s been quiet on the blogfront which I, in an odd way, find a little thrilling because it must mean people are busy with summer plans. I just wanted...
