It seems a little crazy to be posting a sweatshirt right now. Even though we’re over halfway through September (oh my god, how are we halfway through September), it’s still 95° F/35° C here in St. Louis. Admittedly, that’s out of character for this time of the year, but even last year at this time
Okay, I admit it: I’m a little extra. Not all the time, but there are some things for which I just can’t resist going a little over the top. And faux fur is one of those things! When JOANN let me know they were sending me some of their new faux fur for this month’s
Hi friends! This is just a quick note to let you all know that I guest posted over on the Harts Fabric blog today to celebrate Sew Your Heart Out September. Head over there to learn all about my gorgeous Joy Jacket!
We’re officially 67% of the way through Project #SewMyStyle. How weird is that? I swear this year is just flying by.

Okay remember last week when I said I’d finally have time to catch up on about a million posts and emails? Well, Mercury in retrograde has hit me hard and basically every electronic I own has taken turns being on the fritz. If I owe you an email… I will do my best to get
Hello from California! I’m out on the West Coast for a quick work trip, and hitting up Tampa on my way home to drop something off at one of our schools. Everything’s on your way home when you’re in an airport, isn’t it? I did finish my Lander Shorts for #SewMyStyle just in the nick

It’s crazy to think that I’ve been in living in St. Louis for almost a year now, isn’t it? A year ago right around now I was frantically packing up my life in Chicago, getting ready to make an enormous change in my life. In the past year, I’ve done so many things that have
Hey friends! I’ve been home from Italy for almost a week, and I’m finally feeling back in the swing of things — nearly! Sharing my Suki Kimono from June’s #SewMyStyle2018 is long overdue, though. I wish I had brought my Suki to Italy with me. It would have been the perfect layer in the mornings,
