I’m posting my hooded vest tutorial here today just in case you missed my guest post over at Project Run and Play a few months ago. So I knew right away that I was going to share a tutorial for a hooded vest. A few months back I purchased a Gymboree hooded vest at the thrift store and my two little… Keep Reading
Fat Quarter Friday {guest post from Syzygy of Me}
I’m so excited about today’s Fat Quarter Friday and not because the post I wrote last night was never saved so I lost everything, but because Karen’s idea is brilliant and way better then what I had planned anyways. It is one of those “Now why did I think of that?!” projects. Trust me, this is brilliant! So let’s all welcome… Keep Reading
Project Run & Play sew along {week 4: color challenge}
This weeks theme over at Project Run & Play was a color challenge. I knew right away I was going to make something with orange. (I’m pretty sure you could have guess that as well.)

Project Run & Play sew along {Week 2: Sportswear}
This weeks theme for Project Run & Play is sportswear. This was an easy, yet hard one for me. I had way too many ideas running through my head on what to make, but I finally ended up with these three pieces. For the first dress I used a medium weight knit with a little bit of cotton to line… Keep Reading
