Summer is in full swing here in the Washington, DC area – we’ve had a lot of days around the 90 degree mark and as probably the only person who LOVES that heat – I could not be more thrilled. With the warm weather, I’ve been on the search for some awesome summer patterns and […]

I think when I started this journey I didn’t realize how many t-shirt patterns have a dress option as well! It’s been really fun as I’ve been making the t-shirts to also make the dress version. I do think that just because the dress version is perfect, it doesn’t necessarily mean that the t-shirt version […]

After the release of The Simple Life Pattern Company x Sew Caroline, I could not get the Ayda dress and top out of my head. I originally planed on just making the dress this weekend to wear to Mother’s Day brunch, but after making it, I decided to make a top version and make another […]

I am a huge fan of independent pattern designers. I actually have never sewn a “big 4” pattern so independent patterns are all I know. I love finding new designers and new patterns and this is no exception. I had no doubt that in my journey to find the perfect t-shirt, I would find new things […]

It’s time for the Fall Fabric launch at Raspberry Creek! I was so excited to use the Fall launch as an opportunity to jump right back into sewing. For those of you new around here the cliff notes version is I had a baby in June and we moved 2 weeks later! This was exactly […]

I can’t believe Will is 6 months old and that Christmas is this week. To say this year has been an eventful one would be an understatement – unfortunately sewing has taken a back seat as I’ve been adjusting to life with a baby and being a working mom, but I think 2020 will bring […]
