Sewing my vintage birthday dress for 2024

April 3, 2024 by Tasha Leave a Comment

If you've followed me anywhere in the online realms for awhile, you'll know that I sew myself a dress for my birthday every year. Last year was my first year of my YouTube channel, and my first year sewing a birthday dress on video. My birthday isn't until next week, but since I'm going to be out of town, you're getting this year's birthday dress video a little early! Watch me sew my birthday dress for 2024 on ... Read more »

(Belated) birthday sarong dress

April 17, 2019 by Tasha 29 Comments

Happy belated birthday to me! My birthday was actually last Wednesday, but my site had gremlins that had to get fixed, and then I was busy preparing for a trip (more on that below), and so you're only getting the post I planned for my birthday now. Better late than never. :) As I've done every year for several years, I sewed myself a birthday dress! It's a tradition I've enjoyed keeping up (last year's was ... Read more »

A birthday dress with a back story

April 10, 2018 by Tasha 20 Comments

Another birthday, another birthday dress! I'm off on vacation so you get a scheduled post, but it's my birthday today! Hip hip! As I've done every year for 6 years now, I made myself a dress for my birthday. It's possible I'm not actually wearing this dress right now since I'm likely in the mountains hunting down a waterfall as you read this. But this year's birthday dress is one I really love and I'll be wearing it ... Read more »

Special birthday dress for London

April 10, 2017 by Tasha 66 Comments

Today is my birthday! So I sewed a dress! I'm the ripe YOUNG age of 40! And, I'm in London! Um, not in these photos, obviously. We're actually on vacation right now and I took these ahead of time, since we weren't planning to travel with a laptop and I thought trying to do a blog post on my phone on my birthday sounded like a drag. So you get a scheduled post instead. :) Each year for the last handful of ... Read more »

Sweetheart cowgirl birthday dress

April 10, 2016 by Tasha 25 Comments

Happy birthday to meeeee!! In keeping with the tradition that I started for myself three years ago, I've sewn a dress for my birthday. It's my birthday cowgirl dress, featuring a Western novelty print and a sweetheart neckline, modeled in our Southwestern themed den! The pattern is Butterick B5748, a reproduction of their vintage pattern from 1960: I've had this pattern for ages but only got the impetus ... Read more »

Victory Gardening birthday dress

April 10, 2015 by Tasha 41 Comments

Hello hello, my friends! Lots of things to say today! And it's my birthdayyyy! I don't usually go three weeks between posts, but I've been extraordinarily busy lately. We were already having a very full early spring and then about the same time as our friends who moved to Wales have been in and out visiting for the last couple of weeks, I've also been unusually swamped at work, which has meant I've had very little time ...
