Happy Easter! I found your blog by searching for "basic shirt patterns", lol! I would also like to make my own clothes that go with my own sense of style- do you know how hard it is to find a pattern for a camisole top? Or a basic skirt or shirt? I am having a hard time. I was wondering if there was a post you have made that you could direct me too or if you just happen to know where i can find clothes patterns that are sort of easy and "normal"? Thank you!

Oh, BABE-y!

Pics of the fabu BABES gathering at Jennifer's in San Francisco on Sunday, August 21. Thanks so much for hosting, Jen! Here are the pictures. I apologize in advance for any misspelling of names and will happily fix them if you let me know! Georgene offers fitting advice to Lori while Neefer and our hostess look on. Jen, Lori, Dena, Gloria and Veronica (Verosews) swapping fabric, magazines and patterns. Joan (Grannygeek) and Georgene say their goodbyes. Tamtay, Neefer, Jen and Lori get ready to shop! Shopping in the Haight. Lisa M. , Cheryl, Dena and Gloria get inspired at Discount Fabrics

Cozy Purple Pop of Color

Cozy purple throws for snuggling!  Adds some color  to the living room.  Thick fleece trimmed straight with rounded corners.  I tried some overcast stitches with my Juki however I couldn't get the look I wanted so I pulled out my serger. Gosh it's been, like 2 years since I used it but luckily it worked (I've had it for quite awhile but I'm still kinda afraid of it 😜).

Crafty Stirrings

My sewing stuff has been packed up for quite awhile and I miss it! It was packed up to make room for a season of extended visits by family which we have truly enjoyed so it was a worthy trade-off. Family visits will be done in a few weeks and in the meantime we decided that we'll be moving into a different house a few weeks later, so my sewing and craft things (other than sewing-related stuff I have just a few jewelry-making and scrap-booking supplies) will remain packed until it's arranged in our new abode. Focusing on family and transition decisions has taken up my mental space so it's just now, as I begin creating the vision of our next home I'm looking forward to having a sewing space again.
