Vintage knitting, sewing, and a lifetime of craftiness

Fun sunglasses for summer

June 6, 2017 by Tasha 8 Comments

It's kind of a rare occurrence that I say yes to a blog collaboration, and it's been quite some time since I did one that's not craft-related, too. But recently, GlassesUSA contacted me to see if I wanted to review a pair of their glasses. Here's the deal: I mostly wear vintage frames, with an exception for my Keiko frames from BonLook that I adore and actually wear as my primary pair much of the time now (first ... Read more »

Review: Pins for pinups DIY retro brooches ebook (and my Headless Horseman version!)

October 19, 2016 by Tasha 3 Comments

Awhile back—okay, awhiiiiillllllle back—the lovely Brittany from Va-Voom Vintage kindly sent me a copy of her DIY ebook, Pins for Pin-Ups: DIY Brooches for Retro Girls. I'm a retro girl, I love brooches, I love DIY projects, what's not to love about it?! I knew the ebook would be great, because last winter I'd purchased Brittany's Christmas project ebook, Kitschmas Crafting with Va-Voom Vintage, and I had a ton of fun ... Read more »

Slash-neck winner

October 5, 2016 by Tasha 19 Comments

Before fall hit here, Jennifer Lauren (of Jennifer Lauren Handmade) contacted me about her latest pattern release, the Gable top, a cute 1950s-inspired tee with a slash neck. Little did she know, but it was the exact same type of top I was hoping to try and backwards architect from my favorite Vivien of Holloway slash neck tops, as I hadn't found a similar sewing pattern out there yet. She wondered if I'd be interested in ... Read more »

Clowning around in the park

June 7, 2016 by Tasha 14 Comments

Remember how I said it went from marginal spring to summer in about 10 seconds flat? Right. One week I was wearing wool sweaters and the next shorts, scrambling to rotate my closet before I blinked and it was fall again and I'd be back to wool. (I mean, I'm already getting "pre-fall" promotional emails. Really?!) When I wore these shorts it was the first time I got to bare my thighs this year! They were sent to ... Read more »

Review + giveaway: Gertie’s Ultimate Dress Book (and a peek at the dress I made from the book)

March 14, 2016 by Tasha 180 Comments

Earlier this year, I was lucky enough to get an advance copy of Gertie's Ultimate Dress Book to review on my blog, along with a giveaway at the end of this post! This is Gretchen Hirsch's third book, which was just released last week. You may also be familiar with the "Gertie" name from her blog, her line of patterns with Butterick, or fabric with JoAnn Fabric (man, sooo many cute prints in her spring line). Anyway, ...

My new trick to transforming naturally dark eyebrows to match dyed red hair

September 10, 2015 by Tasha 18 Comments

Here's a relatively unusual post from me today! I have a makeup tip. It's something I found so profoundly changed my perception of an area on my face that was bugging me, that I had to share. So today's post is an ode to MAC Browset! Not a sponsored review or anything, just a girl who fell in love with a new product she bought. ;) This is for those faux redheads out there who, like me, have naturally dark and ... Read more »
