Oh Wednesday !
Its a rainy gloomy day here full of sewing and prep for an event that hopefully I have made enough clothing for. Today instead of showing you a project or one of our beautiful fabrics I want to talk about efficiency. Kind of odd right? What in the world does that have to do with sewing?

Gifting the Summit
One of my favorite things to do is give a gift, making the gift is even more rewarding! Our family friend's little girl, had a Birthday earlier this month and wanted clothing.

I have a bit of an addiction to PDF patterns and when I see a new to me company I just have to go looking. I instantly was in love, they had a modern twist to some classic patterns. I requested to join their Facebook group because well, there were patterns jumping in my cart. I needed to stock some photos before I hit purchase. It appeared that quite...
