Freezer Paper Stenciling
The holiday season always inspires me to make and give gifts to my children, nieces and nephews. This year I wanted to make several pairs of flannel PJ bottoms with matching knit tops. Of course the holidays have a way of sneaking up on me and I no longer had time to appliqué the knit […]

Rough and Tumble Pants
This mama loves when I am in the fabric store with Mr. E and he either says 1) very dramatically, “not the fabric store again” or 2) he is making requests for clothes as he points out fabric “I need Lightening McQueen footy pajamas”. It is gratifying (and what keeps me up until the wee […]

Hidden Card Pocket
Today I am going to try to explain my brain. Ha! My husband says it cannot be done…but I will try…as chances are very good that you (the reader) are female and we speak the same language. So with no further ado… I love my Columbia snow jacket because it has pockets everywhere! Like SIX […]

Ascent Fleece Pullover Review
The fall has been gorgeous with great weather and vivid fall colors. The mornings have been crisp enough to want a lightweight jacket, but not to pull out my wool peacoat.

Happy Halloween
This Halloween was a bit relaxing for me from a sewing perspective. My daughter WANTED to be a Ninja…not a princess…a NINJA. And Mr. E wanted to be a MINION! Well at least these were the costumes most often mentioned during the past 2 months of daily costume idea changes. So with no further ado… […]

French Seams
The French seam is an enclosed seam (or finishing seam) as it does not require further finishing. Because this type of seam is bulkier, it is best for sheers and if the finished seam is 1/4″ or less. It is most definitely not for the cotton that I used below, but I wanted to try […]

Flat Felled Seams
Flat Felled Seams are a type of self-enclosed or finishing seam. It is a great seam to use for jeans, pants, children’s clothing and more rugged type clothing as it helps reinforce the seams. Basically it is for seams that have a lot of stretch, tension, or stress on it (i.e. yoke, crotch or butt […]
