Blue Confetti Knit Top + Cream Selvedge Culottes
I’m so excited about this new top! It’s self drafted off my knit sloper with the shoulder seam pushed to the back in a curved inset. I love how regency dresses had the shoulder seams pushed to the back bodice and I wanted to create a more modern adaptation of that idea. This is my…
Blue Linen Marilyn Dress
We’re just back from a fabulous vacation at Disney World with my whole family! I’m still exhausted from our whirlwind 4 day trip but had just enough energy to whip up this new dress when we got back home. I was itching to get back to sewing after being away from home. The kids and I spent Spring…
Dior Grey Badgley Mischka V1460
I’ve been sewing up a storm over here! A little bit of sewing escapism was needed this past week(s). I finished off a pair of Morgan jeans, a super cute set of Carolyn pj’s and two handbags/backpacks! This dress I’m showing off today was finished before the new year but getting some decent pictures required…
Work Wardrobe: Apollo Gray Selvedge Wrap Culottes
I think the best part of going back to work for me is how much my personal style has developed. Working in fashion has made me really reevaluate what I’m wearing and how to get the most out of my wardrobe. Next week I’ll share my full plan but I couldn’t wait to show off my…
Creme de la Creme Granville Blouse
I think this is my favorite Granville blouse yet! The cotton double gauze on this Crème de la crème woven is just luscious. It’s so soft and a nice light weight. Great for summer and layered in the fall. I was originally planning on doing some sashiko stitching on the back yoke but decided the simplicity…
Chartreuse Donna Karan Vogue V1489
I’m feeling really on trend in my newest make, a beautiful chartreuse Donna Karan for Vogue Patterns, V1489. This dress was supposed to be my wearable muslin but it’s fabulous as is. I wasn’t quite sure about the color until I put it on-but once I did –wow! This dress is a real stunner! I bought a bunch of Donna Karan patterns before…
Pacific Grove Vogue V8871
Can you tell how much I love this fabric! This is dress #2 in Pacific Grove, a gorgeous landscape knit from Marcy Tilton. After making my V Neck dress I had just enough fabric leftover to whip up this little dress. It’s V8871, Very Easy Vogue, that I picked up during the last pattern sale to add…
Pacific Grove V Neck Dress M6658
This dress is all about the fabric! I fell in love with this Pacific Grove landscape print, a gorgeous knit from Marcy Tilton , and bought up a few panels. After I got this in the early spring I couldn’t make up my mind on what to use it for. I finally decided I needed a really simple silhouette to really…
