The next month is going to be busy! I am going to be a contestant in the Skirt Fixation blog sewing challenge. The blog is about skirts, but the contest is really anything apparel. I am looking forward to the […]
Well, I have been sewing, but we have also been a bit busy over here. Kai had his 4th grade performance, whereby we all got to listen to the wildly entertaining, and often off-key, recorders. Then we saw something more […]
Follow my blog with Bloglovin More stuff for Anya! This was a pretty simple little outfit and a transition piece. The lace-like fabric on the arms will be good when it starts warming up a little bit. She was not […]

I finally got my version of this skirt done. This is a skirt that is listed on Etsy. I checked it out and wasn’t a huge fan on how she placed the ruffles on her skirt, plus the edges look […]
We had to good way to try to remember summer and warm temperatures last weekend…The World’s Toughest Rodeo! I bought the tickets right away, and got excellent seats for us. We were nice and close to the action, and were […]
