a very scary DIY halloween
October 8, 2018
Once in awhile two ideas come together to create something spectacular. Okay “spectacular” might be a little bit overkill but I was pretty excited. I finally had the perfect Halloween costume idea AND the perfect sewing pattern to make it! I have had the sewing pattern for the Lonetree jacket in my stash ever since … More a very scary DIY halloween
a baby blue party dress
July 25, 2018
I am asked about once a week what new things have I sewed. And even more recently I was asked “do you not sew anymore?” And the truth is I am always sewing! Well… not exactly. I am always in my head sewing. Or at least creating ideas of things I want to sew, projects … More a baby blue party dress

This week has been a wild ride full of medial procedures and doctors appointments and waiting and waiting and more waiting for phone calls from said doctors.

I keep waiting anxiously for the day maxi dresses fall out of style, but to my luck it looks like they’ve made it another year. Welcome back old friends.

With every new season comes the perfect opportunity to dress your child up in theme and take thousands of photos.

Then he’ll be 13 and wearing t-shirts with band names I have never … More how to make your own graphic baby tees

October 12, 2017

a DIY onesie + an important message
October 10, 2017
As much as it hurts me to bring it up, how many of you remember the infamous “locker room talk” between Billy Bush and Donald Trump? Despite which political party you affiliate with, I think this is something we need to talk about.
A D.I.Y Sundress for “Fall”
October 1, 2017
While my entire Instagram feed seems to embracing fall and talking about “sweater weather,” we here in Charleston are enjoying one last beach day, sweating through 90 degree temperatures in September, and living it up in tanks and sundresses. So I decided it was only appropriate to make one last “summer dress” to have in … More A D.I.Y Sundress for “Fall”
