I'm a self-trained sewist, learning a little more about my own style with each make. My fire is fed by coffee, pinot noir, and my sewing machine. So pull up a chair, pour yourself a glass, and join me in creating a wardrobe that speaks to your soul.

  • for real. last one! i wanted to include a handmade on holiday photo that actually looked a little bit like i do now - and by that i mean big-bellied. this was 5 1/2 weeks ago now, so needless to say the bump is much larger today! this was a fun, short stopover in Waco on the way home from spending my birthday in Dallas. 😍⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ •⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ •⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ •⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ top: handmade by me 🙋🏼⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ fabric: Tropic Vertical Stripe Single Brushed Poly - So Sew English⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ pattern: Pony Tank - Chalk & Notch⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 📷: Seed Visual ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ •⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ •⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ •⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #sewphotohop #handmadeonholiday #ponytank #ponytankpattern #sewingwithknits #ponytankparty #vneck #maternitysewing #isew #memade #sewersofinstagram #sewcialists #handmade #diyfashion #dressmaker #imademyclothes #sewing #handmadewardrobe #makethingsnotwar #ootd #handmadeootd #pinsandpinot #dallassews #texassews #sewingblogger
  • yep, another- I couldn’t resist! We spent Memorial Day weekend in Austin - we spent this day laying out and people watching at Barton Springs Pool. This is one of the last times I feel like we did photos and I didn’t look pregnant 😂⠀ •⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ •⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ •⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ dress: handmade by me 🙋🏼⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ fabric: Sandwash Rayon Challis - Teal Denim - Stylish Fabric⠀⠀⠀⠀ pattern: Deer & Doe - Myosotis Dress⠀⠀⠀ 📷: Seed Visual ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ •⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ •⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ •⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #sewphotohop #handmadeonholiday #ddmyosotis #myosotisdress #stylishfabric #rayon #sponsored #isew #memade #sewersofinstagram #sewcialists #handmade #diyfashion #dressmaker #imademyclothes #sewing #handmadewardrobe #makethingsnotwar #ootd #handmadeootd #pinsandpinot #dallassews #texassews #sewingblogger
  • and because handmade on holiday is my favorite #sewphotohop theme, i couldn’t stop at just one! we spent this day of our Italy trip exploring, getting some great drone footage, and eating lunch on the steps while watching everyone take the traditional fun and silly Pisa photos! ⠀⠀ •⠀⠀⠀⠀ •⠀⠀⠀⠀ •⠀⠀⠀⠀ cardigan: handmade by me 🙋🏼⠀⠀⠀⠀ pattern: Helen’s Closet - Blackwood Cardigan ⠀⠀ fabric: Everglades shimmer stretch Jersey knit - Minerva Crafts⠀⠀⠀ 📷: @seed_visual ⠀⠀⠀⠀ •⠀⠀⠀⠀ •⠀⠀⠀⠀ •⠀⠀⠀⠀ #handmadeonholiday #youcanhackit #isew #memade #sewersofinstagram #sewcialists #handmade #diyfashion #dressmaker #imademyclothes #sewing #handmadewardrobe #fallfashion #makersgonnamake #makethingsnotwar #ootd #handmadeootd #blackwoodcardigan #sweaterweather #minervacrafts #wearhandmade #dallassews #texassews #seeingblogger #adventuresinitaly

  • today’s #sewphotohop theme is activewear or loungewear - I’ve really taken the plunge into activewear sewing this year! I’ve made up three pairs of leggings, one sports bra, and i have a great activewear top sitting half finished on my sewing table right now. Here’s a sneak peek of that top’s matching leggings, which i took out for a test run at yoga last night. Look at that waistband!! Blog post on these coming as soon as I can finish the top & get pics! (ps - see my blog / previous post for more info on the awesome labels!)⠀ •⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ •⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ •⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ leggings: handmade by me 🙋🏼⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ fabric: PineCrest Fabrics Olympus Knit - similar found at Fabric.com⠀⠀⠀⠀ pattern: Patterns for Pirates - Peg Legs (with under belly maternity V-band)⠀ labels: Dutch Label Shop⠀⠀⠀ 📷: Seed Visual ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ •⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ •⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ •⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #patternsforpirates #p4p #maternitysewing #peglegs #sewingwithknits #sponsored #isew #memade #sewersofinstagram #sewcialists #handmade #diyfashion #sewingactivewear #imademyclothes #sewing #handmadewardrobe #activewear #makethingsnotwar #ootd #handmadeootd #pinsandpinot #dallassews #texassews #sewingblogger
  • one of my favorite things about sewing my own clothing is sewing in my very own custom labels. I just teamed up with Dutch Label Shop to create some new labels with my logo on them, and I’m pretty much over the moon. If you’re interested in getting some of your own, check out the blog for all the details - I even have a 15% off code for YOU to make your own!!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ •⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ •⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ •⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #dutchlabelshop #customwovenlabels #handmadeclothing #diy #sponsored #isew #memade #sewersofinstagram #sewcialists #handmade #diyfashion #dressmaker #imademyclothes #sewing #handmadewardrobe #makethingsnotwar #ootd #pinsandpinot #dallassews #texassews #sewingblogger
  • theme of the day: fitting S.O.S. though nothing came to mind right away, scrolling through my photos reminded me that this number left a little to be desired as far as fitting! I love it so much for being super comfy and functional, but it’s certainly not the most flattering or well fitted! wondering if I should give this pattern another shot in a drapier fabric, or resign this one to comfy nightgowns only!⠀ •⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ •⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ •⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ dress: Handmade by me 🙋🏼⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ pattern: Rosy Peña Patterns - Laura Dress⠀⠀⠀⠀ fabric: Taco Love Light Knit - Art Gallery Fabrics (from Cottoneer)⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 📷: Seed Visual ⠀⠀⠀⠀ •⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ •⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ •⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #sewphotohop #rosypenapatterns #rplauradress #tacodress #cincodemayo #daytripfabrics #tacolovefabric #indiepatterncompany #indiepatterns #sewistsofinstagram #sewcialists #sewingblogger #slowfashion #imademyclothes #makersgonnamake #makethingsnotwar #isew #isewmyownclothes #memadeeveryday #ootd #memeadeootd #dallassews #texassews #pinsandpinot #artgalleryfabrics #sewingwithknits #AGFmakersspotlight
  • I’m super lucky to feel like i don’t have any makes that total make me say “what the flip was going on there”... however, these trousers would be the closest to that. the fabric is perfect, the pattern was great, but making pants (without a maternity hack!) while 5ish months pregnant made it really hard to tell if these are a good fit on me or not! pregnant bodies are very oddly shaped, so what i was thinking here i couldn’t say. I’m still interested to see how these fit someday when i have a normal human body though!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ •⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ •⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ •⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ pants: handmade by me 🙋🏼⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ fabric: Brussels Washer Linen/Rayon Blend in Black - Cottoneer Fabrics⠀⠀ pattern: Blank Slate Patterns - Forsythe Trousers⠀ 📷: @seed_visual ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ •⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ •⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ •⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #sewphotohop #forsythetrousers #isewedpants #cottoneerfabrics #linen #rayon #imadepants #isew #memade #sewersofinstagram #sewcialists #handmade #diyfashion #dressmaker #imademyclothes #sewing #handmadewardrobe #makethingsnotwar #ootd #handmadeootd #pinsandpinot #dallassews #texassews #sewingblogger
  • this year, wardrobe essentials has meant KNITS to me. Anything stretchy enough to grow with me over the past 7 months has been on constant rotation. my current favorite is the #nikkodress, and I’ve got two more cut and ready to sew this week. 😍 (ps - coupon code for this fabric on the blog!)⠀ •⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ •⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ •⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ dress: handmade by me 🙋🏼⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ fabric: Dark Dusty Pink 4x2 Thermal Ribbed Stretch Knit Fabric - Stylish Fabric⠀⠀⠀⠀ pattern: True Bias - Nikko Dress⠀ necklace: Flying Cactus⠀⠀⠀ 📷: Seed Visual ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ •⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ •⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ •⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #sewphotohop #truebias #nikkodress #maternitysewing #stylishfabric #sewingwithknits #sponsored #isew #memade #sewersofinstagram #sewcialists #handmade #diyfashion #dressmaker #imademyclothes #sewing #handmadewardrobe #makethingsnotwar #ootd #handmadeootd #pinsandpinot #dallassews #texassews #sewingblogger
