Sewing and Such
It's no surprise that as soon as Sew Like My Mom released the Tulipa Dolman, everyone was asking for the ladies' version. Well here it is! The Allium Dolman is now available in sizes XXS all the way through 3XL and on sale through tomorrow. There are several combinations available with this pattern, including top, …
I really love a good knit pattern, and Sew Like My Mom is one of the best at drafting well fitting knit patterns. I'm so excited for her new Tulipa Dolman because it's great for mixing and matching knits. The Tulipa Dolman is a sporty dolman style top, tunic, and dress with two views, a …
Oh my goodness time flies! I've really enjoyed spending so much time with my family over the summer, and although I've been sewing, I haven't shared much on the blog. Let me tell you though, I've completed a lot of sewing projects that have piled up in my sewing room, and it's felt good to …
Here's a fun weekend sewing project for you if you're looking for one. Warm weather pjs! I've been wanting to make myself some cute summer pajamas for years. I always wear worn-out and stained "can't be worn in public anymore" t-shirts and old maternity shorts to bed (yup, lookin' my best), and I must've been …

Each day seems to get busier and busier, but I'm really looking forward to summer break. Alright, on with …

Aside from having a fabric closet which is AWESOME, I have fabric spilling out of it because it's …
Here's my second week of wearing and photographing my makes. Several haven't been blogged, and probably never will, but I'm working at getting better. It's easier to photograph my girls in my makes than myself! Day 8 Pattern: Ruby Top (refashion) Designer: Made by Rae Blogged: Not yet, but soon! Day 9 Pattern: Charleston Dress …
This is my second year of participating in Me Made May, an annual event put together by "So, Zo... What do you know?". I pledged to wear a handmade item each day this month, but it's not really out of the norm for me. I tend to wear me mades everyday, but here is a …
This is how it happens...Sew Like My Mom releases a pattern for kids, and all of the moms doing the sewing beg her to make one in ladies' sizes. She always obliges! The Plum Dolman is releasing today, and it's the ladies version of the Apricot Dolman. The Plum Dolman is available in a range …
