I had such a hard time picking fabric for the Magnolia Blossom Dress! The main fabric was easy to choose, but as is often the case, I had just donated a piece of fabric that would have been perfect for the flounce. And, my sewing room is still quite chaotic from the move so it …
A well-fitting dress that skims and hugs in the right places can totally change your mood. The Sophie Wrap Dress is the latest sewing pattern for women by Frocks and Frolics. It’s a faux wrap dress with half-circle, but how does it make me feel? I seriously think this should be called the “I Feel …
I live in leggings, seriously, i have quite the collection and i am firmly in the ‘leggings are pants’ team but also on the ‘wear whatever makes you feel good’ team too. I had a bunch of different fabrics i could have made these out of, but then i suddenly remembered a pair of jeans …

One of my boys has been asking me for a bag to carry his Bible, pencils and other ‘treasures’ that he takes to Church. When the Bucket Bag came across my screen, I knew that it would be a neat bag for him. The Bucket Bag has pockets, it’s wide open so it’ll be easy for …
