Living Life Fearlessly and Without Hesitation
Let me introduce you all to this silent gem of a dress. I refer to it as "silent" because although this pattern seemed to make great impressions when Simplicity previewed it, I haven't seen many people make this pattern (especially in this view). Something I love to do before making a pattern or sometimes before…
On April 13th, 2019 (just two days before my birthday) I completed my 100 days of sewing challenge. I honestly could not believe that that it had come to an end or that I even made it that far. That challenge was no joke! I never sewed for that many days straight so I honestly…

So let's get real for a moment about something I am currently battling with and praying about ya'll....

My initial reaction…

With the New Year just a few days away, I had a goal to squeeze in just one more sewing project to give me that added boost to take over the sewing game in 2018. After scouring through my saved pins on Pinterest I came across this gorgeous dress that was unique, classy and fun.…

It has been a serious minute since I last posted so please pardon my absence.
