I’m not sure how’s the weather outside your window, but from where I’m standing is looks like Spring is a bit late .. Obviously I’m not complaining (despite the 2, soon to be 3, weeks of never-stop raining …), as I know the changing of the seasons can be unpredictable 😦 Still, and as far as sewing… Continue reading (Belated) Ainsley Blouse
I hear myself saying it time and time again: I’m okay with making sewing actually happen (as long as I’ve done some prep work). It’s taking pictures (late after the sewing is over and kids are back exhausted from school) and posting about it, that gets me every time. As much as I plan in advance… Continue reading Kids Clothes Week | Opening act
I might just as well face it: I sew faster than I blog 🙂 Just kidding, of course, but that could help to explain why I have so many projects in the pipeline (waiting to be blogged). The weather is still quite nice around here (if you consider the fact that winter is fast approaching) and my kids… Continue reading Last year favorites (still going strong)
As you should now by now, one of my favorite things to sew are dresses. And sundresses are just as good: easy to sew, perfect to wear and always the perfect addition to a girl’s wardrobe. Since its release (in 2011), I’ve been sewing my girl one Seashore sundress (by Oliver+S) every summer, but I never managed to get… Continue reading Sundress season is here 🙂
After the enthusiastic reception my girl gave the Laura dress (here), I was highly motivated to sew the top version. I selected the unlined short sleeve top version and one of my favorite summer fabric combo: seersucker and Liberty (scraps from two previous projects. Barely enough for the top). Despite my planning, as soon as the weather warms… Continue reading As promised … the Laura top
Several weeks ago, I was the lucky winner of the Frannie Challenge in the Sew Classic for Children (a Facebook secret group). I won a generous gift certificate from The Children’s Corner Store. Nevertheless, the lovely (and very talented) Lezette Thomanson was kind enough to include a few extra treats in my package. It included several lovely patterns for my… Continue reading Perfect prize: The Laura Dress

I love reading all your comments – it’s always so nice to learn more from you (and your favorite Serendipity patterns)! And, as promised, and despite the… Continue reading Serendipity Blouse plus Giveaway winner
I’m pretty sure you have already seen the new Bohemian Babydoll dress and top pattern from Heidi of Elegance and Elephants. It was already in sewing list so when Heidi emailed a couple of “sewing friends” (the best) asking if we’re willing to play with the it, I literally jump off my chair. Seriously?! 🙂 As her… Continue reading Bohemian Babydoll Dress Tour
Another dress that was finished a couple of months ago, but never made it here. I’ve said it before, if I don’t blog about it as soon as it’s finished, changes are I forget about posting about it. Nevertheless, and because there are still a few things that I would like to post here (I’m constantly checking… Continue reading Library ninja dress
My little girl will be turning 6 in just a few days … She has been counting down the dates and I’m still wondering how did this happened so fast! I’m quite sure, she was crawling just yesterday and all of a sudden she’s reading and writing and counting. My sweet baby 🙂 Moving on,… Continue reading An early Birthday gift: Philomena, the Fox
