Hi friends! It's been awhile since I made time to sit down at the computer to write anything of substance. My new little one is a doll, but she's quite demanding about my time.

Post-Maternity Project Planning: The White Cami
Well, hello again! I know, I disappear for two months, and then I find the time for two posts in as many weeks.

Seriously, these days when… Continue reading Reflecting on 2013

The Summer Dress: Saltspring in Liberty
Have you seen Sewaholic's most recent pattern release, the Saltspring Dress? I was one of the lucky pattern testers, and I fear I've lost my job as I couldn't really find anything off about the pattern. I tried, too.
