I’m not sure what possessed me last week but I decided to make a dress with a pattern I wasn’t sure I was going to like and a fabric I wasn’t sure about. Way to get myself excited about a…

Yet Another One
Another top, that is. Sick of it yet? Actually, I kind of am. Not the results, just the constant sewing up of tops. But then again, they’re what my wardrobe needs the most. So I keep at it. This time,…
Photo Monday – At the Garden
Brooklyn Botanical Garden, that is. And the girls were actually excited about it! I ended up messing with the aperture a lot. It’s so interesting. I’m realizing that the depth of field at a given aperture is more or less…
Still Sewing For Me
I admit I’m starting to get burnt out on personal sewing. Not so much because there’s nothing else I want to make. There is! It’s just… I’m trying to reduce my stash so no buying. That seriously limits what I can…
But She’s So Cute!

Me Made May and More
My head is so filled with apartment hunting and the stress of moving that I can hardly focus on anything else. It feels like there’s this annoying fly harassing me all the time. Seriously. All. The. Time. Fashion Revolution Day…
