We affectionately refer to him as “Charlie Brown” all the time, so I was beside myself with excitement a few months ago to run across this Peanuts cotton knit fabric. I combined my Patrick Curved Raglan and my new Austin Lee Coverall to make his 1st birthday…

Snow Day!
It’s coooooold outside, and six inches or so of snow fell overnight here in Dallas. We’re feeling a little cooped up inside since sleet and ice-covered roads from earlier in the week have kept us from being out and about. We’re doing our best to make the best of it, though.

This pattern is one that I’ve had quite a few requests for. I’m always happy to put together a pattern that you want, especially when it’s something that we can use at our house, too! I made these two pair of boxers, along with a few others, for Jamie, and he doesn’t want to wear…
Adding a Little Detail with Your Serger
I was working on this laptee for a t-shirt and cloth diaper set that I’m sewing for a swap and thought I’d try out this idea that’s been running around in my head for awhile. A lot of ready-to-wear clothing has detailing like this around the neckline and sleeves. They use a special machine to…
Coveralls Under Construction
