Friday Update!

I will most likely be fabric shopping in the next week or so.

 

Hump Day Wednesday

Hump Day Wednesday!

Oh So Cream!

It's a Marvelous Monday!  I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend.  My weekend was full of house renovations, sewing and planning some projects. The weather wasn't too bad, I had an chance to get outside for a bit.

Don't Stop--Keep it Coming

Happy Friday!  I hope you are all looking forward to the weekend, I know I am.  This RTW Fast is proving to be very rewarding, I think I mentioned that in another posting.  So much so that I have decided to "ramp" things up a bit.

New Pattern--New Top---Disaster Strikes!

I am so excited with all the new fabric that I have acquired.  I am sure  someone out there can relate, I have a stash of fabric that I always say, "I'm gonna make something with that" and then it sits!

My Patterns Have Arrived!

It continues to be very very very  COLD here!  Thankfully my heart is warm with the arrival of my new patterns (lol) .

Can't get Enough

I hope you all had a fun and relaxing weekend.  My weekend was very busy. I was in Niagara Falls with some friends and did a little cross border shopping.  On my excursion across the border I went to Joann Fabric and Craft Store.

Work It Out!

Happy Sunday.  It was a lazy Sunday for me. Basketball and Football on my TV all day. I wanted something that was comfy-cozy.  I made this jacket with the Vogue #8778.

Leather N' Sheer and Everything Nice!

I am not sure about you, but I found that this week has just flown by.  It seems that as the week goes on, things seem to get busier. I have a busy weekend ahead with birthday parties, dinners and the usual weekend activities.  With all the hustle and bustle of the week, there is always time to sew.

Newsboy Cap- First Attempt

I am always looking for something to inspire my next project.  Recently, I came across www.malepatternboldness.blogspot.ca by Peter Lappin and saw his Newsboy Cap.  My husband always complains that I never make anything for him.  In all the sewing I do, I try to avoid male patterns because my hubby is so particular about the way in wants his clothes to fit,

Birthday Party Beauty

I hope everyone had a great weekend.  My weekend was fun with a 40th Birthday Bash for my lovely husband.  We had a few friends over for munchies and then we went out dancing.  I needed an outfit that was fun and sexy.  I was inspired by Mimi G's Peplum Dress.

Simplicity 2472 Pattern Review

I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend.  It is absolutely FREEZING here.  On a day like this, I would rather stay in bed, comfy and warm.  However, duty calls.   I managed to get some sewing in this weekend.

Boucle Suit part 2

My adventure continues with this suit.  I completed the fitting of the jacket cut out the pattern pieces in the fabric, which I love.  In all my haste to work on this project, I forgot to look for some lining material.  When I make a garment that requires lining, I like to "jazz" it up a bit, go BOLD with the lining.

High-Waist Pants- Butterick 5895

I thought I would post a pattern that I absolutely LOVE.  I have made the pants in several fabrics; my favourite being the black Corduroy(featured) and the Camo fabric.

Boucle Suit part 1

I was inspired by one of my favourite blog- @Mimi G of @ www.mimigstyle.com  Her style and the way that she chooses fabrics are amazing.
