Hi. 

Enjoy browsing around the blog.  Feel free to leave a comment or ask a question!

A Maker Heart
Give the people what they want—which is more indoor photos of me next to a very old outlet and a very old vent, obviously 🤪! I am wearing handmade pants so look at those 😳. These are my trial run of the @deer_and_doe_patterns #NarcissePants which have a very cool side panel.  I made these for #SewFancyPants and received a copy of this pattern as a part of @deer_and_doe_patterns sponsorship of Sew Fancy Pants!  Thank you D&D for their sponsorship and go to my blog linked in my profile for more info about these pants and some close up shots of this make.  #sewingpants #handmadewardrobe #makerhearthandmades #deeranddoepatterns
ANNOUNCEMENT:  Grand prize winner of the #SewFancyPantsDance and random drawing winners of the other two grand prizes for #SewFancyPants will be announced TODAY at 1pmEST/11amMST on @nf_merritts blog!  Her post is scheduled and we are spending the hours until then giving THANKS to YOU for participating and all of these amazing companies above (swipe for more👉🏻) for sponsoring our grand prizes.  What an amazing month of sewing, community, and pants! 💕 (slide 1 is the #SewFancyPantsDance prize sponsors and slides 2&3 are the sponsors of the other 2 grand prizes!) #sewing #sewingpants #sewingchallenge #fancypants #letssewfancypants
This burgundy stretch twill (overstock from J. Crew) from @imaginegnats is a DREAM to sew.  It has beautiful stretch and a crisp hand the lightly brushed texture makes it really easy to tell right from wrong side!  I’m sewing down to the wire for #sewfancypants but I couldn’t skip a cute pocket design!  I think I’m just going to do one pocket.  What do you think?  Let me know 👇🏻. You all have really good ideas and have helped me so much this month! (PS- there are only 13 yards of this in stock—you better get some!!!) #sewingpants #sewingjeans #cashmeretteamesjeans #amesjeans #imaginegnats (I received this fabric as a part of Imagine Gnats sponsorship of Sew Fancy Pants but my love for it is completely my own.)
Let’s wish Loni @havinsewmuchfun a very happy birthday! 🎂🥂
My next #sewfancypants make are my #SeamworkCallahan pants!  Are you ready to #sewyourseamwork2019 with me?  I’m sewing one @seamworkmag pattern per month for 2019 and we can do it together and cheer each other on!  Also pictured is my #TaosTop which has been released TODAY by @threadbeargarments.  Details about both patterns plus lots of pics of my pants on my blog linked in my profile.  Are you a Seamwork subscriber?  Do you actually sew your patterns or just collect them (like I have done until now)? Let me know👇🏻! #seamworkmakes #sewyourseamwork #fabricmartfabrics
If you want to see me show off my jumping abilities, swipe 👉🏻 😜. If you want to hear all about my first make for #SewFancyPants, go to my blog (linked in profile). They are the @blankslatepatterns #skyejoggers and it’s love 💜 (in plum sweatshirting from @imaginegnats). This pattern goes up to a 55” hip and it was very simple to make. Plus deep pockets!  How is your pants’ sewing going?  What do you have in progress this week?  EDIT:  this sweatshirting is back in stock TODAY at @imaginegnats ! Go get some in a variety of colors before it sells out AGAIN!
How amazing is Nicole’s relationship with her son? 💕. This is serious #boymom goals right here!!! And also they are both looking really fancy in those pants!  Pop over to her feed for the link to her blog post!

Good morning! This cutie is joining me on the blog today as I share my #sewfancypants projects number 3 and 4. Used this blue/grey Ventana Twill from @raspberrycreekfabrics to sew up another pair of #persephonepants. Had some long, odd shaped scraps left over and was able to squeeze out a pair of @misusupatterns #ollisummerpants for my boy. Click the link in my profile to read more about this fabric and using tried and true patterns for your fancy pants.
