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.

throwing it back to another comfy made for our Spa throwing it back to another comfy made for our Spain trip last year!! the construction on this poncho is wonderfully simple - three pattern pieces, simple construction, it comes together in such a short time. I'm thinking a solid black version would be a good addition to this year's cool weather wardrobe!⠀⠀⠀⠀⁠

I've been enjoying looking back over a few older m I've been enjoying looking back over a few older makes since Minerva launched their new website recently! I'd had a number of things I'd made with their fabrics that I'd held off on blogging until the launch, and it's been a fun way to remember some of the things I don't always grab for in my closet. My comfy sweatshirt collection from early 2020 is heavily back in rotation this month!⠀⠀⠀⠀⁠

last time I wore this sweatshirt, my 2 year old ha last time I wore this sweatshirt, my 2 year old had a great time climbing all over me to check out the buttons and tell me all of the colors! I didn't realize until recently that part of the job description of a mama includes being a human jungle gym!! I'm working on a woven top with another set of these beautiful buttons right now - I can't wait to show it off, too!⠀⠀⠀⠀⁠

the first time I made the I Am Lion sweatshirt, I the first time I made the I Am Lion sweatshirt, I omitted the button placket and sewed the size recommended by my measurements. With this version, I sized down two sizes and doubled up the button plackets to show off more of these fun buttons!! they both still get worn a lot, but I like the extra glitziness of this version quite a bit!⠀⠀⠀⠀⁠

has anyone else found the Zebre and Lion sweatshir has anyone else found the Zebre and Lion sweatshirt patterns to run a bit large? I modified this one slightly to cinch in the waistband, but found it to run 1-2 sizes large when cut to the size recommended for my measurements! I'm sizing down on the next one 👍🏻 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

another well-loved sweatshirt has finally made it another well-loved sweatshirt has finally made it to my blog today! this sweatshirt was really the catalyst for my entire suitcase full of clothes when we travelled to Spain in January of 2020. I was aiming for a travel wardrobe comfortable and warm enough for long train rides and hauling my rolling suitcase behind me on cobblestone streets while pushing a stroller, but I also didn't want to just look like a slob! I think I nailed it with this one! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

I often pre-plan my posts a few days at a time, an I often pre-plan my posts a few days at a time, and I'd written a sweet caption today about why hummingbirds are special to me. But that's just not what we need today. Instead, I just want to put it simply that what transpired in the US yesterday was a disgrace, and the most disappointing and terrifying part of it was the LACK of response to those actions. A confederate flag was waved in the halls of our capitol. In 2021. White supremacists spread their hate and roamed the halls freely while government officials were sheltered and the man elected to lead this nation applauded from the safety of his Twitter feed. I'm so disappointed. I will continue to post my sewing content, because 2020 taught me the high value of a safe space to escape to for a moment, but I hope you're staying aware, reacting, and supporting or being supported by your friends and loved ones. What we witnessed yesterday is not okay, and highlighted, yet again, the terrible need for change. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
