Disclosure: I was provided the pattern and fabric for free but all opinions are my own. Matching family pajamas is one of my favourite parts of the holidays. For many years I made matching pajamas for all of my nieces and nephews, but when it got to be something like 14 pairs ranging in size …
I have a closet full of Leschi tops and dresses. For awhile there it is all I was sewing because every fabric just seemed to go perfectly with the pattern. Usually I either lengthen it into a dress or tunic or leave the sleeves off, but this time I wanted to try remixing it into …
Montlake is a workhorse in my wardrobe, I am constantly finding new ways to remix it. It wasn’t until I saw a picture of my Magnolia dress a couple months ago that I remembered how much I love the swing in the hem. I figured I could use the same idea on my Montlake for …
This v-neck Leschi with ruffled sleeves might be my favourite make to date. And since I can’t just leave the blog post at that I will elaborate… That colour, those ruffles, that v-neck! This fabric was a dream to work with and I am excited to try the other 2 colours I got it in. …

Week 2 recap of Me Made May is finally here. It has been a strange few weeks for my business which I will be sharing more about tomorrow on the blog, but I really wanted to recap every week since I am really learning so much about my clothes choices this month. If you didn’t …
Tomorrow I will be sharing my Sew the Year sewing plans for April but today I wanted to share how March went. To recap my plans, I planned to sew a knit View Ridge and the Colette Myrtle dress. I am happy to say I managed to sew them both this month! First month since starting this fun challenge …
My post yesterday on how different the pattern fits depending on the fabric you choose, is even more evident today with the Bryant Tester Roundup. These ladies sewed up a bunch of amazing tops and I can’t wait to share them with you. Abigail really took the opportunity to show off the print in her …
Somehow I became the 30 something mom who sees a trend but by the time I get around to it all the ‘cool kids’ have moved onto something new. I am pretty sure that is exactly the case with this cold shoulder Montlake. I had no real interest in making one for myself but then I …
