I mentioned in my last post that I made the Play Date V-neck Tee from Peek-A-Boo Pattern Shop. This is the first shirt I have ever made and almost my first project made out of knit. I’m pretty excited with how it turned out and looking forward to working more with knit and trying out… Read more »
Have you ever had a project in which you could NOT mess it up? You pretty much had one chance to get it right? Well, this baptism dress was that project for me. And I am pretty excited with how it turned out. It’s nothing too fancy, but still cute. One of our friends asked… Read more »

The advantage to buying the pattern is that you get multiple sizes, as well as calculations to make whatever size bag… Read more »
If you weren’t aware, Keyka Lou Patterns changed to Michelle Patterns, but they are still the same patterns, just from a different business name. As you might remember, I mentioned that I was working on the messenger bag. Well, I finished it a few weeks ago and I think it turned out great! It’s a… Read more »
When Lillian was a baby we always used a hooded towel after her bath. As she got bigger the towels became too small and the larger ones seem to be really expensive. So I decided to make one myself even though Lillian got an elephant towel from her aunt. Who can have too many hooded… Read more »
