Spring Showers Jacket Pattern Tour & Tips On Sewing With PUL

I am so excited and thrilled and a little star struck to have been invited on this fabulous tour!! So needless to say, when I received an email from Heidi at Elegance & Elephants I opened it very eagerly and was typing YES before I could even finish reading the email ;) And lucky me, she was asking if I would be willing to sew up her newest pattern, the Spring Showers Jacket!!!

The Zippy Top - A Pattern By See Kate Sew

Is it silly that I'm nervous? Taking photos and especially POSTING photos of myself is just a little nerve wracking! Anyway, gulp, here goes.

One of my goals for this year was to sew more for myself. I've "experimented" in sewing for myself before. Meaning I've sewn stuff, without patterns, and it was always pretty much a failure. I've made a few skirts that turned out ok, but just... ok. So I was VERY excited when Kate came out with the Zippy Top pattern!

Hi all!! I hope everyone had a very wonderful Easter! And hopefully you've all had a day now to recoup and get into the swing of  things again. We had a pretty good day yesterday, especially for a Monday around these parts, I'm hoping the good moods will last for the rest of the week ;)

I wanted to share a couple of photos I got of both kids TOGETHER (amazing!) in their Easter outfits!

Easter Geranium Dress & DIY Polka Dot Chambray Fabric

Monday, April 21, 2014


I maybe shouldn't even admit this... This is O's very first official Geranium Dress!! I know, I know! It's not that I haven't used the pattern before. I made these two Baby Geraniums here and used bits and pieces of the pattern, here, here and here. But for whatever reason I've never made the whole dress just for her. Now that I have I can see five more of these appearing in her closet. That is, once the days magically add about five more hours to themselves...
