I've been loosely following along with #SewMyStyle since January and this month's make really jumped out at me! I've had the Briar T-Shirt pattern from Megan Neilsen for a while now and the Search for the Perfect T-Shirt + #SewMyStyle made it the perfect fit for this month. The Briar T-Shirt and Sweater features a high low hem, two lengths, and two options for a patch pocket. It comes with three versions - a cropped tee, a sweater, and a full length tee. I chose to sew up the t-shirt ... View Post
Waterfall Raglan + Virginia Leggings
Last month's #SewMyStyle was a little bit of a fail for me.

As a big fan of the Alberta Pencil Skirt by Sew House Seven, I was really excited to try her Toaster Sweater as well. While I'm not really a turtleneck or high neck kind of girl, the ... View Post
Friday Favorites
Happy Friday everyone! I hope this weekend holds lots of sewing time for you or spending time with family and friends! I can't believe we're already a week closer to Christmas - I swear each week is going by quicker than the next. We're currently in Florida trying to soak up some sun (it's currently raining....) before the long winter months and trying to relax a bit before the holiday season! I'm here to share some of my favorites from the week with you! Sew Over It Kits! ... View Post
