It's a Rockerbye Easter!

Ever since having my kiddos Easter has become so much more fun! They absolutely lose their minds over the egg hunts! This year I decided now that our little family is complete they needed some matching outfits. So Rockerbye to the rescue of course! First, let's chat about these boys shirts. I don't have quite as much sewing time with little miss so I wanted simple, quick, but cute! For this little cutie's, I used the Elliedactyl 5k shirt that comes with built-in color blocking. Best part, the pattern is free if you join their group here and get the code! It's...

2019 Make 9 Sewing Goals- Get out of that Creative Rut!

So I've been sewing for around 3-4 years now and as I continue to grow in my skills I've also realized I tend to get comfortable. With comfortable comes burn out and boredom, at least for me. It's so easy to fall into our favorite patterns and comfort zone. While that's not a bad thing, it can kill our creative side. The side that brought us to sewing in the first place! So this year I've decided to try for the Instagram make 9 challenge. Basically, you choose 9 things (sewing or craft related) that have been on your "to...

The Aphrodite Dress and Bamboo = The Perfect Marriage!

Who else is excited about this amazing Bamboo Amber is offering this time!? Let me gush about it for a second and then I'll take you to the pattern. Bamboo is LIFE for warm months! It's like the summer equivalent of squish! It's crazy soft, breathable, gorgeous drape, and so vibrant! It's perfect for flowy pants, cardigans, dresses, tops, skirts, and really anything you want some pretty drape on. Bamboo is kind of "heavy" but light meaning it definitely has weight to it but doesn't feel like it when you are wearing. It also doesn't have the best recovery so...
