Living Life Fearlessly and Without Hesitation
I've been meaning to share this for a while now since I received this gift like a month ago, but it's better to do this late than never, right? A couple of months ago, my former co-worker and friend Shandana asked me for my address as she wanted to send me a wedding gift from…
There have been many times during my unemployment where I've read articles and self-help posts on how to apply for jobs or what to do for resumés and cover letters in hopes of unlocking the "secret" to landing a job in my desired field. Some were helpful while others...mmm....not so much...and are border line impractical.…

So after making my yellow off the shoulder top and having much success, I admit to getting a bit big headed to the point where I oversimplified other sewing projects I have yet to try. I appreciate the confidence that the project gave me but it was too much and I needed some humbling and…

You know, there's those moments where things just seem to be off in my life, which are just signs from God telling me I am doing way too much and losing sight of who I am living this life for. I experienced that feeling last week and felt I was overdue for much needed alone…
Earlier this week, I was excited to properly break in my machine and wanted to create this off the shoulder top with my yellow cotton material I shared in my previous post. This off the shoulder trend is something I have been adoring this summer season and in need of in my closet.

I wanted to come on here quickly to share some of the fabric and sewing supplies I've acquired over the past few weeks. Since the arrival of my new sewing machine, I've made two trips to fabric stores in search of some material to help me get started. I wasn't really in search for anything…
Everyone, meet my beautiful new Juki HZL-LB5100 sewing machine! Juki, meet Everyone! So a couple of weeks back, my father-in-law sat my husband and I down after church and told us about a conversation he had with his sister (my husband's aunt). He mentioned me in the conversation and how I was interested in…
Can I just say that I am proud of this girl (*points to self*) for completing her very first sewing project EVER! May not be a huge deal for you but it is for me, especially as someone who is a creative and has the awful habit of starting something and not seeing it through…
One of my least favorite things about being unemployed has to be the wait. The wait to find a job post that remotely matches your skills. The wait to finish the unnecessary long applications. The wait to hear back from companies you applied to. The wait to have a phone interview. The wait to see…

It's funny how I write this post with so much hope and chillness regarding this topic when it wasn't the case some few weeks back. If you checked out my last post accurately titled "Barely Started and I Am Already Over Thinking It", you would have noticed that I mentioned my current unemployment situation and…
