My sewing in 2023 kicked off with an awesome start, thanks to a couple of days home with a feverish little girl who wanted to just snuggle in my chair in the sewing room and relax quietly with a stuffed animal and a show! I finished 5 projects in the first 11 days of the month, which truly has to be a record for me!
Right after my sweet baby boy was born in 2021, Andrea of ThimbleLamb kindly gifted me a couple of her sewing patterns for children that she thought might suit my little ones. It was a true act of kindness, and while I will admit this was my first introduction to her brand, she asked nothing of me except to enjoy the patterns if I felt they were right for my babies! I was in a little bit of a postpartum cloud at that time, and while I was still sewing, I was also very behind on some collaborations and my own ideas of things I wanted to sew, and therefore wasn’t able to make any immediate plans to sew up either pattern.
Y’all have been singing the praises of the Wilder Gown for so long, and I’ve been admiring from the audience as the thousands of beautiful gowns and blouses pop up on Instagram. SO let me tell you, I am so excited to join the ranks today and show off MY beautiful Wilder!
Y’all – a new issue of FibreMood Magazine is out, and this one is chock full of styles to make you shine during the holiday season! There were SO many great patterns to choose from this time (as always!), but I’m pretty sure I chose the best one!
