Hello! This week, I am so excited to share my DIY silk kimono. Not only am I absolutely crazy about this kimono, but it is a project that has been a long time coming. It started more than two years ago, when I picked up Simplicity #1318. I had been thinking of making a kimono for a while, and I loved the easy style of this pattern. What I didn’t realize was that it would take me more than TWO YEARS to finally find the right fabric … good thing I wasn’t in a hurry.
I’ll be honest here…working out is not my favorite activity. It’s more of a necessary evil that takes up valuable time I could be using to sew. So, I’m always up for finding ways to make it more fun. In this case, the fun quotient […]
This week’s post is all about a shirt that I had as much fun making as I have wearing it (and that’s a lot of fun!). My striped tee with leopard appliqué was inspired by BurdaStyle’s DIY Cat Appliqués tutorial.
I love polka dots and button-down shirts…so it seemed only fitting that my first post should be both. I am thrilled to finally publish my first blog post, and this shirt is hands down one of my favorite recent projects.
