Easter Spring Dress Plans and My First Vlog
My First Vlog Although I have made many live videos on Periscope and as co-host of That Sewing Blab, I am a relative newbie with recorded videos.

The Big Dot Coat Reveal
Whew Just in the Nick of Time TaDa, the Dot Coat is finished. Just as we got another dump of snow this week. Arrggghh, I hate winter. This coat will brighten it up! I made this coat for two reasons. The first being that I have wanted to make this coat ever since I designed […]

Revisions, Revisions, Revisions. Patternmaking the Dot Coat
Ch-Ch-Ch-Ch-Changes I work hard during each design challenge to ensure my final design looks as close as possible to the design illustration readers vote for each month.
