Hi, friends! Oh, heavens! It’s a new dress! Why, how unusual? Not really, no. But I’m a dresses gal, so another one in my closet makes me happy. 🙂 This, my friends is the By Hand London Kim dress. I’ve admired this pattern since I saw Mary’s watercolor version. A few months ago I was the […]
A Floral “Beaded” Shirtdress [McCalls 7084]
Hello, friends! Here’s a dress that I’ve had finished for about a month now and worn several times already! Yes, I’m slow on the blog photos lately! This is McCall’s 7084, a shirtdress with princess seams and a gored skirt. I chose View A and made mine with quilting cottons. The black floral cotton is […]
An Anchor Print Felicity
Well, hello there, folks! It’s been a while! I actually have been sewing, just not too into taking photos lately…. I plan to, and then another week passes me by…. yeah, a little lazy about that, I suppose! However, I have been busy with household stuff and sorting/cleaning at my grandparents’ house. I’ve found some […]
Back to Sewing
I felt this matter deserved a post rather than an addendum on other post. I have not been sewing much lately nor blogging due to the illness and loss of my grandmother. My grandma passed away peacefully after almost two weeks in the hospital from heart disease. She was 89 and outlasted my grandpa by […]

Sewing Goal #4: Leggings
Hello, friends! I’m happy to say that I’ve followed through with a goal! At the beginning of the year, I set five goals out for myself to complete before the year’s end. I’ve finished one and 7/8 of that goal! (There’s one goal on that list which is nearing it’s completion) Sometimes I have a […]
{tutorial} DIY Concho Belt
Hello, friends! I’m happy to share this tutorial with you! I’ve made several belts over the years and these are by far the easiest ones. The other belts I’ve made were tooled belts that I cut out of tooling leather. I was honestly never great at making those as my lines were never cut perfectly straight […]

The Poppy ESP Dress
Hey there, friends! It sure feels like spring around these parts! Quite apropos for this dress, me thinks! This is one of the fabrics that came before the pattern. (You know — “what came first, the fabric or the pattern?”). This large scale print needed a pattern as wonderful as it is to […]
The Star Trek Dress
Hello, friends! Yep, I’m sharing a wee bit of my geek love today! 🙂 I’ve had this fabric lingering in my stash for a few months now and the unseasonable warm temps here in CA lately have inspired me to cut into it. That and my need to sew the ESP pattern up ASAP! […]
