Unintentional Fall Sewing 25 Aug 2013 | 06:47 am
It's still quite summer here and will be for a long while yet so I don't really know why I was drawn to this fall-colored fabric today. But I was, and this 2-piece "dress" is the result. I think maybe...
Preview 20 Aug 2013 | 06:38 am
You would think because I'm modeling this outfit that I wore it today, but ... you would be wrong. ;-) I'm actually trying on the two pieces together for the first time tonight after work to see how ...
Fast and Basic 19 Aug 2013 | 08:13 am
I had a new skirt pattern out, tissue pressed and cut, ready to go and then the wild hair took over. Or should I say, the lazy hair. Instead of making the new pattern/skirt, I re-fashioned a dress and...

Orange you glad to see me? 6 Aug 2013 | 07:48 am
(My favorite knock-knock joke as a kid, so I couldn't resist.) Since I'm not working, I decided to spend some time with some old friends in the sewing room today. First up, my Viking 6010, which I d...
Butterick 5748 - Revisited 29 Jul 2013 | 06:45 am
This dress may be a keeper now. I say *may* because some stress eating coupled with much less movement due to the ongoing sciatica pain has added a few pounds and the dress is now more form-fitting on...
Un-Venting 28 Jul 2013 | 09:24 pm
First, thank you everyone for your support on my vent post. I've now removed that post, its comments, and any other comments in the previous post directed at one commenter. I didn't mean for my vent t...
