Remember this gorgeous geo rose print Mya that I made back in March?  Yeah.  Me too.  I freaking loved it.  Which is why I was extra excited when...

Walk the Plank PJ Bottoms by Patterns for Pirates

Walk the Plank PJ Bottoms by Patterns for Pirates

We’ve spent all summer sewing and putting out woven fabric patterns over at Patterns for Pirates, and today is the final day of our “P4P Summer of Wovens”!  Woot!  We are celebrating the end of the woven sewing season with a FREE pattern for you guys, and one that will work for the entire family. 

Really, the WHOLE family.  It’s a unisex pant pattern in youth and adult sizes and covers from 3M – Plus 3X.  Not bad, eh?

Run the Ball! Score the Points!

I used to be the best WVU fan ever.  EVER.  Never missed a game, always knew the players and the current season standings, and all of that good stuff.  And then we had a baby and started our own businesses and life got in the way…and I’m officially the worst sports fan ever.

I’m trying to be better this year, Mountaineers.  I swear I am.
But when I decided that this week’s Feature Friday theme over at Thread & Grain would be football….I needed a shirt that represented my poor sports fan-ing abilities.

What?  Another P4P pattern release day?  Oh my stars!
I think you’re going to be happy with this one too, friends…because it’s a WOVEN dolman pattern.  Which means it’s quick, easy, and you can use your woven apparel fabrics that you’ve been hoarding without a plan for it.  Let’s talk about the new Brunch Blouse!

Woohoo!  Another pattern release from Made for Mermaids just launched yesterday and it’s a good one.  This cutie is called “Mama Nina” and she’s a raglan high-low swing style dress that will make you swoon.  For real.

Summer Cocktail + Wanderer Skirt

When we received the schedule for the Cricut Conference, it said that the first night would involve a cocktail party.  SHIT.  Cocktail party?  I don’t have any cocktail dresses in my closet…because I have this issue of making a dress and only wanting to wear it once, and then giving it away or selling it.

Empty closet.  Fabric that I’ve been dying to sew into something.  And a short schedule before I had to leave for Salt Lake City.  I decided not to go as formal cocktail as I normally would, and went with more summer vibes.  I AM OBSESSED.

Thursday was a new release day for Made for Mermaids….and I’m just a little bit behind on the party.  But I still want to share with you about Mama Tara. The pattern is still totally on sale thru Sunday, July 30, so I’m not late.  I’m just coming in as a backup reminder!

I totally planned it out like that…………..

Sharing my BeeBox make every month is becoming one of my favorite things!  Surprise fabric mail is so fun and the challenge of making something with them is so good for my creative spirit.  I also adore the little cards that are sent in each box.  I feel like Allison and Lauren are my bffs when I read them, and that they’ve put so much thought into what they’ve sent each of us BeeBoxers.

Sew Americana :: Day 5

It’s the final day of our Sew Americana Blog tour, friends.  Holy butts this week has flown by!  I hope you all have enjoyed it as much as I did!  Blog tours can be a lot, and usually there’s some sort of reward or giveaway or whatever….but I chose not to do one with this tour.  And these ladies still bring their best work!  It’s pretty cool, if you think about it.

They just slay, what can I say?

PATTERN RELEASE DAY IS HERE!!!  It’s like Christmas in the sewing world, am I right?

Made for Mermaids is releasing FOUR patterns all at the same time and I am geeked.  They span the entire family…boys, girls, men and women.  AND they’re fabulous for pattern mixing, which is way up my alley.  I have so many photos to share that I’m going to break it down into two days of posts.  And of course, I’m being a brat and showing off my photos first.  Would you expect any less?

The 15th day of every month is quickly becoming my favorite day.  Because it usually means I get a notification in my email, telling me that my BeeBox from Vinegar + Honey Co has shipped.  Fabric mail is the only kind of mail I like to get.

M4M Ella Sew-a-long :: Flutter Sleeve Add-On

Have you guys heard?  Made for Mermaids is doing a sew-a-long for the Ella + Mama Ella patterns all next week!  So fun, right?  Sew-a-longs are just a little way for hundreds of people to sew the same thing, at the same time, and feel like you have sewing buddies making the same thing alongside you…as well as get a lot of inspiration, tips and hacks.

I’m here to share one of the extras that is coming next Wednesday: a flutter sleeve add-on!
