Magnolia Blog Tour Day Two: All The Hacks!

 Welcome back to day 2 of our Magnolia Re-launch Blog Tour!!!The Magnolia is one of those patterns that has been around so long, you might not even know it exists.  The Magnolia was first released in 2016 and was one of my early patterns after I'd decided to dive headlong into this whole 'pattern design' thing.  From the very beginning it was a pattern that I loved to wear.  It was always comfortable, always flattering, and worked with a huge variety of fabrics that I could grab from my stash.  The base pattern includes a gajillion options with neckline, hem,...

Sew Yourself Some Love: Night to Day with the Y Back Slip Dress

 Welcome back to DAY 2 of our Sew Yourself Some Love Blog Tour as we take a deeper look at the Y Back Sleep Set.I love that we live in the age of 'lounge wear'.  That yoga pants and a tank are as acceptable at the gym as they are at brunch or hanging with the kids at the park.  As much as I love gorgeous historical pieces, I am so glad that I don't personally have to be bogged down by all the undergarments to create those silhouettes or all the societal rules of what can be worn where,...

Sew Yourself Some Love 2020: Day 1

February is often considered a month of love... we look for signs of love in a bouquet of flowers, some heart shaped chocolates, a silly card that sums up a magnitude of feelings, and if kids are involved - then all the time, money and love gets showered on them!!!  So, we're taking this moment to remind all sewists that they should take some time for themselves.  Maybe that is in the form of a glass of wine, reading a god book, going for a solo walk with great tunes, orrrrrrr maaaaayyyyyybeeeee it is carving out the time to sew...
