My Secret Shorts!
Hello everyone, I hope you’re having an amazing summer (or winter!) so far… I have a confession to make. I’ve been keeping a secret for MONTHS. But finally the cat is out of the bag – I was contacted to be a Pattern Tester for Megan Nielsen’s new Harper pattern!!!
Winter Coats for the Kiddos
Wow, have I ever been neglecting this blog… Hopefully you’re following me on Instagram because that seems like all I manage to have time to update these days… I’ve been trying to sew as much as I can, but my free time is short. Working outside the home part-time, as well as being a full-time […]
Shades of Grey
Autumn is beginning to set in here in Sea-to-Sky Country. Leaves are changing colour, snow is dusting the tops of the mountains around town, and there is a definite chill in the air. So far we’ve been pretty lucky and have been enjoying more sunny days than normal for this time of year. That said, […]
Sewaholic Granville in Chambray
I’ve never really been a huge fan of blouses (on me). But I love them on other people.

Summer Cascade Skirt
I’m sure I’ve mentioned that we go to A LOT of weddings. 2015 is no exception. Our friends got married at the end of June in the Okanagan, on what turned out to be a record-breaking heat wave! Luckily I wore my Megan Nielsen Cascade skirt to help beat the heat.
Sailor Hat Tutorial
Ohhhhhhh mannnnnn…. I CANNOT believe an entire year has gone by already! Our little guy is turning one at the end of the month. In all likelihood, he is our last baby (but hey, never say never), so it’s a bit sad for me. That said, his little personality is really starting to shine. He’s […]
More Drape-Draping
I thought I’d take a quick minute and blog about a dress I posted on Instagram the other day. It’s the No. 6 Low Back Drape Drape Dress (phew, that’s a mouthful!) from Drape Drape Vol. 1.
