I know...I know...I know.... Even as I write this I am sitting on the couch, late at night in my pajamas after just showering for the first time today. It's been a long day...running errands, doing homework, and changing diapers. Sorting laundry, fixing dinner, and paying bills. Attending meetings, making calls, and driving the carpool. Doing dishes, cleaning toilets, and mopping floors. And today wasn't even a busy day. As I sit here tired and worn out in my Winnie the Pooh thermals ... View the Post
Pencil Skirt Sew Along: Drafting a Skirt Sloper
Today we are going to draft our pencil skirt sloper. If this is your first time drafting a flat pattern to your measurements....you are going to love the fit.

Vintage Pattern + Organic Cotton Sateen = A Winning Combo
I have had this vintage 1976 McCall's pattern for years now. It keeps floating around between my to be cut pile and my stash but earlier this week the pattern met the fabric and it was true love! The fabric I used was organic navy cotton sateen from Organic Cotton Plus. I've used their fabrics before and I love them...they are always so soft and wonderful to work with and this cotton sateen was no exception...it is like butter! Seriously, butter. Which is why I ended up making the long ... View the Post
How to Draft a Pencil Skirt
One thing I think is a staple in any wardrobe is a straight skirt or a pencil skirt. I think they look fantastic on all body shapes and I just love them. I have been dreaming about them in about 100 colors for Spring lately and I keep seeing bright colored ones all over fashion magazines.

When we draft we will show you how to make a straight skirt ... View the Post
