It's another Me Made Monday around here and I'm really excited to share my Penelope Peplum from See Kate Sew! It's got florals and a circle skirt - so it's right up my ally! Yesterday I talked about five things I learned in my first year of sewing, and my love of florals was one of those things - so this top is highly appropriate! The Penelope Peplum is a knit top with multiple sleeve length and the original pattern comes with a gathered skirt. See Kate Sew has an add on pack to add a ... View Post
Sewing Anniversary | 5 Lessons I Learned from my First Year of Sewing
I can't believe it's been one year since I entered the world of garment sewing! If you had told me a year ago, that I would have sewn one garment let alone replace almost my whole wardrobe with handmade clothing, I would have laughed in your face! I bough a sewing machine in early 2016 only with the intention of learning how to make project bags for my knitting projects. I was never that great at it, and try as I might, I couldn't teach myself very well. I took a sewing class at a place in ... View Post
The Search for the Perfect T-Shirt | The Panama Tee + Dress
I'm excited to be back to share another installment of my series of the Search for the Perfect T-Shirt. I'm here today to talk a little bit about the Panama Tee and Panama Tee Dress from Alina Design Co. I sewed up the Panama Tee Dress last week one night after work and was so pleasantly surprised how much I loved it. I've mentioned before, but I am not a dress person usually, but as I mentioned in my Wardrobe Staples post yesterday, I have been so into t-shirt dresses. After loving the ... View Post
Wardrobe Staples | Spring Edition
Me Made May is halfway over and it's been a really wonderful experience so far! While I always considered myself to wear something handmade everyday, I didn't realize that I wear the same couple items over and over again. In order to not make it terribly boring for anyone who watches my Instagram stories, I've been trying to avoid too many outfit repeats, although as we hit the halfway mark, I can't guarantee you won't start to see repeats. What is has taught me is the "staples" in my ... View Post
Me Made Monday | Ayda Top & Dress
After the release of The Simple Life Pattern Company x Sew Caroline, I could not get the Ayda dress and top out of my head. I originally planed on just making the dress this weekend to wear to Mother's Day brunch, but after making it, I decided to make a top version and make another Molly top. During Me Made May, I've realized that I LOVE the handmade tops I have, but I don't have enough to really have a variety of them to wear throughout a month. As to not bore you (or myself) on my ...

Pattern Testing | Molly Top
I have been so excited to share this pattern test with you all that I got to do for Sew Caroline. I have been obsessed with circle skirt tops recently and when the opportunity to test the Molly Top + Dress came up I signed right up! At the time, the whole project was a bit of a secret, but us testers found out a couple days ago that this test was a collaboration with Simple Life Pattern Company. Katie, from Simple Life Pattern Company, and Caroline, from Sew Caroline, worked together to ... View Post
