Little Lizard King Burges- Brittnie Landsgard
Going into 2022, I made many sewing related Resolutions/goals. Topping that list: sew a purse with zippers. Little Lizard King came out with Bruges, a small purse pattern, perfect size for my daughter. Then Ash and Elm released their new base, Poplin. Everything was shaping up to be a great make. I ordered my fabric and hardware, and assembled my pattern. Then my zipper tape arrived. I ordered a metal zipper. Panic mode activated! I didn't know how to sew metal zippers. Every video I watched said "never sew over a metal zipper". Another video said to get "Zipper Nippers"....
2022 Spring Capsule- Melissa
I have a confession to make…. EVERY season I get it in my head that I am going to sew up an AMAZING capsule wardrobe filled with pieces I can mix and match to fill my closet. I sit down and start to plan out my makes and get SO OVERWHELMED.

Petite Stitchery & Co. Sunny Sweats
Have you seen the new Petite Stitchery & Co. Sunny Sweats*?? If you know me then you know I LOVE a good color block pattern, and a pattern that has a TON of options PLUS color blocking is just IRRESISTABLE!!! 😍😍 Why am I obsessed with colorblocking you might ask? Well it's because it allows me to use up some of my beloved scraps that I've been hoarding saving. Plus having 4 boys that tend to get jealous if mom makes something for one of them and not the others I LOVE getting to mix things up to customize their...
