I was recently asked to review a new alcoholic beverage and it would have been a travesty to turn down such an awesome opportunity! You want me to drink an adult beverage and then review it? Not a problem. I am the lady for the job. Best. Job. Ever. I was even […]

I have been totally scarce from Project Run and Play this season, haven’t I??? Other than my Jump Rope Dress, I have legitimately not had time to participate and that makes me want to rip my hair out! Okay, so I won’t harm myself, but seriously, time needs to slow down a bit! This week’s […]

Memory Book for Uncle Luke
I have been quiet around blog-land the past week because I have been spending lots of time with my family and preparing to bode farewell to my brother, Luke. As most of you know, we are originally from Australia and my brother has decided to move back there with his wife. Hooray for them, but […]
Sewing Preparation
I can’t be the only one that despises the preparation it takes to sew, right? You know…. pre washing the fabric, cutting out the pattern, tracing the pattern onto paper, cutting the traced pattern out, pinning to fabric, cutting the fabric, blah blah blah.

Please spread the word… Please
I came across this video via Facebook and I am so incredibly saddened by the actions of the teachers, teacher’s aides and the school district. To make it even worse, I grew up a town over. As as a parent of an Autistic child, PLEASE watch this video and become an advocate for your child. […]
The Jump Rope Dress: Project Run and Play/ Week 2 Sportswear
It’s that time again for sewing along! Week 2 of Project Run and Play and the theme is “sportswear”. Pretty vague and broad topic, right? However, I knew what I wanted to make right away: The Oliver and S Jump Rope Dress. I have had that pattern in my collection for quite some time and, […]
