Sticking with the Sew Over It theme for the week, I decided this weekend that for the last snap of winter we're having here in Virginia to sew up the new Chloe Coat from Sew Over It! I've been a huge admirer of this coat - it was a class that Sew Over It taught in London, but it hadn't been released as a pattern. When it was released earlier this winter as an online class it went immediately into my cart and I ordered all the supplies from Sew Over It. I loved Lisa's hot pink version and ... View Post

Lonetree Vest
Truth be told, I actually had the Lonetree Vest on my #2017MakeNine and after making the Lonetree Jacket and Kelly Anorak, I decided not to make the vest. But, when Raspberry Creek Fabric sent me some of their new lightweight twill, I knew it was time to revisit the Lonetree Vest. The Pattern and the Vest The Lonetree Jacket and Vest was the first pattern that Allie Olsen from Indie Sew. I mentioned a lot of my thoughts on the pattern in my first post about the Lonetree Jacket and many ... View Post
The Lola Coat | #CoatMakingParty
Have you been following along with the #CoatMakingParty on Instagram?? It's hosted by some of my favorite sewing bloggers (some of whom I got to meet in Utah a couple month ago) and there are some amazing coats being sewn up. I (honestly) had no intention of participating, not for lack of interest but due to lack of time in the month of January with work but when I saw that Tiahna was sewing up the Lola Coat, I convinced myself to jump in! I've actually had the Lola coat on my to-sew list ... View Post
#2017MakeNine | The Results
It's so hard to believe we're in the season of year-end reflections and goal setting for 2018. I wanted to do a recap of my #2017MakeNine. It's not a ton different than my check in that I did in July, but I still think it's important to recap the remainder of the year prior to setting my goals for 2018! #2017MakeNine | Jackets 1- Kelly Anorak - Check! I love this jacket so much - my feelings definitely haven't changed since I was gushing about it in July. It even made it as my ... View Post

Ellsworth Coat | Me Made Monday
I can't believe a week ago I was still up at Camp Workroom Social (CWRS)! This weekend I had some time to finish up my Ellsworth Coat - I had such little left to finish it was silly to keep pushing off! My perpetual fear of buttonholes can always deter me, but not this time! Before I jump in to talking about the coat, if you missed my recaps of CWRS make sure to check them out here and here! I talked a lot about the experience of camp along with what being in the intensive was like where here ... View Post
