I’m trying to clear out my to-sew pile after the last year and a bit when I was often too sick to sew. A lot of projects in the pile had been cut out for a while. It’s been a while since I made a dress. I haven’t really worn them much this past year … More Blank Slate Patterns Marigold Dress
My health is still pretty tenuous so these catch up blogs aren’t moving as swiftly as I hoped. I decided to combine a few of them and all of these ones are in the some shade of purple fabric so I figured, Hey Purple party! LOL. Seamwork Brit (Bonus) This one is my second time … More Purple Party
Years ago when the True Bias Roscoe was first released, I wanted to make it but the original sizing was a few inches smaller than my own. The finished measurements were probably okay at first but then I grew a bit more with my disability majorly limiting my mobility. Now the Roscoe is in sizes … More True Bias Roscoe Dress and an EDS photography show
Hi everyone! I recently redid my website. It’s not 100% finished but getting there and unless you look back in my archives, you can’t really tell the unfinished bits. When I went through all my past posts, it turns out that I didn’t share everything I made in 2019. I know it’s February now but … More Round up of unposted projects from 2019
I’ve been waiting to share this one with you since I tested it. I love the Cashmerette Alcott dress.

I’m wearing it with my Adrienne blouse. The fabric I used was a poly twill … More Helen’s Closet York Pinafore
The Friday Pattern Company Wilder gown is definitely a perfect gown for dramatic looks. I’ve been following the hashtag on IG for a while because people are creating such beautiful versions of it! The Toronto Sewcialists had a fancy party a few weeks ago and I knew I had to make this dress. I had … More Friday Pattern Company Wilder Gown
Disclaimer: I received this pattern for free in exchange for testing, but my opinions can’t be bought by patterns alone. I require cheese (preferably lactose free) and probably a good amount of tequila and cold hard cash. Feel free to send me that. I tested the Cashmerette Holyoke dress ages ago and then left it unhemmed … More Cashmerette Holyoke Dress
After the size inclusivity chat on Instagram, I was contacted by several pattern designers that pledged more sizes. CocoWawa was one of them. While the dress they were doing pattern testing for was just slightly outside my size, the ease in it would work. Ana and I chatted about it and she really wanted to … More Introducing the CocoWawa Crafts Maple Dress
I recently took part in DH Fabrics’ Sewing is for Everyone and Every Body blog series. As part of it, DH Fabrics offered to send us fabric. I opted for this gorgeous berry wool blend jersey. A bunch of us at the CSC wanted to do a Same Pattern Different Bodies for the Seamwork Tacara … More Seamwork Tacara
