Amidst all the kid-centered Valentines, I always love thinking of a special Valentine idea for my husband. In recent years, I've made these "My Life Would Suck Without You" (Succulent Valentines), "You're all that and a bag of chips" printables and this year I have a special one for a vinyl lover! These Record Sleeve Valentines are catchy and fun to put together. These record sleeve valentines adorn a label that says "You spin me right round, baby, right round" and you can finish the rest in your head! The song always reminds me of the ...Continue Reading

the BLAIR maternity tee
The BLAIR maternity TEE is here! This is my first maternity pattern (though there are a couple of current patterns that work for maternity!) and I'm thrilled with it! This basic tee is all you need for all 9 months of pregnancy! It's fitted enough to flatter your belly while allowing you to grow and there are multiple sleeve options to get you through all seasons! I've made so many of these so far! I just keep growing so I just keep sewing more. Since this is my third pregnancy, I'm SO sick of most of my maternity clothes. ...Continue Reading

HOW TO DO IT ALL + make time for sewing with HP
I've partnered with HP & Intel to show you how I work from my happy place and make time to sew! As a busy mom, I am often asked the age-old question "How do you do it all?". The question first makes me laugh (Hah! you have no idea, come see my laundry pile!), and then it makes me a little sad! The feeling I get from the women who ask me this question is that they don't think they are doing enough, or they want to have time to be creative and pursue hobbies, but it just doesn't seem to fit in their current lifestyle. I never want anyone ...Continue Reading
