On Wednesdays We Sew

Road Trip!! My mom and I decided last year that this would be the summer we take our epic road trip we have been wanting to do since as long as we could remember. And since circumstances have changed a bit since we dreamed this up,  we will now be bringing my two kids with… VIEW POST

I was having a conversation with my neighbor the other day about Kate Spade….yes….you probably know by now what we were talking about. We actually talked about it the other day. How did she manage to do that without anybody in the house noticing? Why did she feel like that was her only way out?… VIEW POST

My oldest, she is fierce and a force to be rekoned with. She blows me away day after day. “They” say your kids your not be your friends…and she is most certainly my kid before my friend, but man she’s gonna make one seriously loyal bestie to some lucky kiddos! For now, though, she humors… VIEW POST

Cherishing: The concept of “hygge.” I have been decluttering with a purpose and trying to create cozy, snuggly spaces in my home. The first room I did this with just kept drawing me in….making me want to be there. It is swathed in sunbeams and just makes me happy. I can’t not smile and feel happy… VIEW POST

I didn’t even know I wanted a fur coat! Here I am, though, thoroughly loving my brand new fur Hvar! I mean, sure, there is fur in my lungs, I had to lint-roll myself, and it looks like it snowed and a tiny white animal exploded in my sewing room, but I don’t care! When… VIEW POST

It’s today! It’s today!!! Why am I so dang excited about some random Tuesday in November? Well I’m about to tell you. <3 Ok, ok , okaaaaay….I’ll just show you! The Lulu Dolman was designed by Jennifer Jeremiah and The Rory Dress and Peplum is my first pattern. Together they are the first women’s mini… VIEW POST

So a loooong time ago, when my daughter was three weeks old, I traveled to Maryland from Ohio for a doctors appointment at the military hospital there, and visited my friend Joyce while I was at it. I had my three-week-old daughter in tow and Joyce was giving me heaps of clothing, a swing, and… VIEW POST
