I had a baby shower a few weeks ago for an old friend-well she's not old, just...well you know. I've known her forevers. Anyways, she's having her first baby-(a girl!) so I knew I wanted to shower her with homemade goodies. She's got amazing style so I tried to pick fabrics out that were stylin'...haha who knows if I succeeded but I … [Read more...]
KCW: more Nessies
April 12, 2014 By 21 Comments
We can never have too many Nessie tops around this house-I love it as a basic tee, and with the variations too! After Amanda from Kitschycoo was sweet enough to send me some of the incredible fabric from her shop, I knew it was destined for greatness. Ok, cheesy yes, but seriously. This fabric deserved to be showcased! DEERS! This fabric … [Read more...]
KCW: solid bateau tops
April 10, 2014 By 6 Comments
This is one of those projects I thought would be a good idea. "just whip up some solid colored tees to build up Sadie's wardrobe" I said to myself. Self, next time just buy solid tees. Seriously these actually weren't too bad, but since I wasn't customizing them or anything, they were a bit boring to sew up...just repetitive I guess. But … [Read more...]

You may have seen the awesomeness that is the new Pattern Anthology collection-4 knit top patterns for WOMEN! And they are all so cute and stylish. I had a tough time deciding which one to make, honestly! I might have to shamelessly copy Stef's Parisian top at a later date...I heart it SO much. I decided on the City Girl top (designed by … [Read more...]
KCW: liberty heart Nessie top
February 5, 2014 By 25 Comments
One more project for KCW that's been on my list for awhile-I really wanted to make a Nessie sweatshirt with a liberty heart on the front. So I did it. Can I get a huzzah for crossing things off your list!? *huzzah!* Anyways. It's SUPER cozy. Sadie wasn't thrilled about our photo shoot which was in the morning when it was still a little chilly. … [Read more...]
KCW: grey and mint bimaa sweater
February 2, 2014 By 14 Comments
Mint and grey-another color grey goes well with! (it's a great neutral wouldn't you say?) I just had to make another Bimaa sweater after my first one. Sadie doesn't wear it, sadly. She doesn't like the cowl very much. boo! But Charlotte has worn it, I'm just waiting til it fits a bit better before I let her wear it out of the house. I must admit I … [Read more...]

I finished up a springy outfit for the littlest the other day-a pair of Go To Leggings (affliate linkaroo) (fabric from Hobby Lobby), and a Sweet Dress top made with some soft yellow polka dot fabric. I love grey and yellow together, don't you? So fresh yet classic. Oh and I made another pair of these moccs for Ava-love love love them! Ava was … [Read more...]
KCWC: floral go to leggings and gold dot pippa peplum

First day of Kids Clothes Week! (for me, at least...) Yes, so.....sewing? Let's talk 'bout that. Cause it's fun. I am straight up addicted to the GO TO Leggings pattern (affiliate link). It takes me roughly 1/2 hour now to make a pair. Shazam! that's fast. I got this obnoxiously awesome (it's ok if you don't like it, but I DO) granny knit … [Read more...]
KNITerview & a knit bow tutorial

I'm psyched to be over at Rae's today as a part of her KNITerviews-a series all about your favorite bloggers & KNITS! Knits are one of my favorite fabric types to sew with-so comfy for kiddos and grown ups alike, and not as hard to sew with as you may think! Also, as you may know I recently came out with my first knit PDF pattern-the Nessie … [Read more...]
heathered red nessie top and butterfly leggings
December 2, 2013 By 4 Comments
Is it weird to say that I am in love with my own pattern? If it's wrong, I don't wanna be right, I guess. But I love how quick it is to sew up and how comfy and easy to wear it is. Little Miss C needed some new leggings and long sleeves, so I whipped up this red heathered Nessie top for her, and added a little gold pocket. To go with it, a pair … [Read more...]
