I cut this out in hopes to get it done during Kids Clothes Week but couldn't quite get to it. Its the same pattern as this dress but in a size 3T. I did the scoop cutout and made it sleeveless cause this girl loves her tank tops (even in... Continue reading

This isn't such a good picture of the sweater I am making. Maybe this is a better one. Its for the almost 10 year old. It probably won't be finished until the spring. But that's how knitting is for me lately and I kind of like it. To be honest,... Continue reading

While I was sewing like a mad lady last week my girls were doing some of their own designing with Rosie Flo. Have you seen these? They are pretty great coloring books and the girls often add different design elements to make it more their style. You have to add... Continue reading

So I am going to post two today and that will be it for the Kids Clothes week for me. They are both in knit fabric and actually most of the projects from this week were jersey knit. It was good to get the practice but I still don't feel... Continue reading

I think I have always felt drawn to sewing because of my art background. Walking into fabric stores with all the beautiful fabric inspires me the way looking at Monet's work does. Sewing is a perfect alternative to painting for me right now. It fits into my life so well... Continue reading

The second KCW project was inspired by this dress by Tea. Every time I get their catalogue I want to buy every dress. Then I look at the price tag and say to myself, I can make that! I cut out the pictures and put it in my inspiration book... Continue reading

After looking at all the great work on the Kids Clothes Week flickr page I knew I had to find some time to sew. Something about hundreds of women all sewing together. Exciting and motivating! The first thing I wanted to tackle was the Figgy's Circle Skirt. Its a free... Continue reading

I made this lady for the seven year old's handmade birthday gift. I try and make them each *something* for their birthdays but its getting more difficult as they get older. This year I asked her what she wanted me to make and she said a bear. I was reluctant... Continue reading

There hasn't been much sewing going on lately. We have been trying out a new diet that cuts out snacks in a bag or box. In the end its a good thing but it puts me in the kitchen a little more and makes planning food a bit more time... Continue reading

My covert robin gift was from a women named Margaret and when I opened it I was amazed. She used the same color polka dots as my new business cards and she had ever seen them! Crazy right? and look at the "sweet puddles" banner! How thoughtful. Won't it be... Continue reading

Everyday I try to practice some form of gratitude. Its such a simple thing but can be so helpful for my mood, my parenting, and I find such great things come from it. Its a form of meditation too, which I have been delving into a little bit more. It... Continue reading

Did you notice my newest sidebar? I have entered my first bloggy gift exchange called the Covert Robin run by Rachael of Imaginegnats. There is an element of surprise to it all because you don't know who will be giving you a gift. Sort of like white elephant. You can... Continue reading
