Batch sewing 3 Charm Patterns Hepburn tops

May 9, 2024 by Tasha Leave a Comment

You know me. If I love to sew and wear something, I typically want multiple versions. I love repeating tried-and-true favorite patterns! And the Charm Pattern Hepburn top of one of them. Inspired by a recent batch sewing marathon (corduroy pants!), I decided to kick things up a notch, and I've just finished sewing three Hepburn tops at a time. A trifecta of tops, for my 100th YouTube video. (I KNOW!) Head over to my ... Read more »

Sewing a vintage-inspired Halloween flannel jumpsuit

October 25, 2023 by Tasha Leave a Comment

Happy Halloweentime! I just finished sewing an amazing Halloween-themed flannel jumpsuit, just in the nick of time! This is a pattern hacked jumpsuit of the first order, sewed up in flannel, so it's just as comfy as actually wearing pajamas! I hacked together three modern patterns for this vintage-inspired jumpsuit: two reproduction vintage ones, and one retro one. Dress bodice: Butterick B5748 (1960 ... Read more »

Sewing a 1940s maxi dress for summer

July 19, 2023 by Tasha Leave a Comment

I've really been on a roll sewing dresses! Like I'm sure many people, I go in cycles in terms of what I want to sew and what I want to wear. And lately, that's been dresses. Granted, I type this while wearing a skirt and a top, but I've definitely leaned more towards dresses this year. And I just finished up a fabulous vintage dress! It's featured in my latest YouTube video. I used a 1940s sundress pattern, Simplicity ... Read more »

Sewing a vintage dress with ribbons on the bodice

May 24, 2023 by Tasha 1 Comment

As it's been getting warmer, I've been a busy bee lately with life stuff, and my sewing time has been less. You have to enjoy the warm weather when you can, and sometimes that means hanging out on my deck rather than holing up in the basement sewing! (Much as I love holing up in the basement sewing!) But I recently finished sewing a vintage dress, and it's the subject of my latest video on YouTube. It's another ... Read more »

Dreamy boucle cardigan and a dress

November 30, 2022 by Tasha 12 Comments

How about something completely different? And by different, really I mean the same—I'm sharing a couple of finished projects. That's the bread and butter of what I do 'round here, after all. But it's been awhile since I've shared anything except the knitting patterns I've worked on this year, so I'm here to change that! Ironically part of this outfit started off as something I intended to make into a cardigan pattern ... Read more »

Sildra mittens

January 13, 2021 by Tasha 9 Comments

Thank you for all the kind comments on my last blog post, and hey guess what, I didn't make you wait over a year for another one! It's nice to know there are folks out there who still want to read this. :) As I said before I do have some posts in me, and here I am again to prove it. Writing is a nice way to distract myself from the world and goodness knows, we need distractions right now, especially this last harrowing ... Read more »
