I was scrolling on Instagram and I saw someone bring up their end of year WIP purge. While I don’t really have a lot of true WIPs lying about, I have been wanting to do a deep dive on the LilyPADesigns patterns since April, and I do have quite a few planned projects that have … More Adventures in Bra Sewing: LilyPADesigns Haru Knicker Pattern Review
Somehow despite being a rather busy month I actually got a decent amount of sewing done in November! Blogging about it… Not so much, but hopefully I can get some more detailed posts about my most recent projects up soon. The early winter darkness and rainy weather hasn’t made photography a super fun prospect, but … More Monthly Sewing Review – 2025 November Wrap Up
October is the first month in a long while where I haven’t had at least one weekend of travel, and it has been really nice to be at home, though it does feel like the month has gone by very quickly and that I haven’t been able to get as much done with the time … More Monthly Sewing Review – 2025 October Wrap Up
I think this is the part of writing this blog where I tap the mic to see if it’s still on and blow heartily to clear away the dust and cobwebs. It’s been and continues to be a crazy year (for so many reasons), and I must admit I have largely let sewing fall by … More Adventures in Bra Sewing: LilyPADesigns Lamina Bra Pattern Review
I did get more sewing done in September than in August, but not as much as I would have hoped. I got a few things done, but not any pictures yet, and I’ve got one WIP that with any luck should finish up next month. Sewing Progress I finally started on what I’m calling the … More Monthly Sewing Review – 2025 September Wrap Up
I thought August would be the month I got back to sewing, but it wasn’t as much as I had hoped. This month feels like it has been flying, and I’ve been trying to get caught up on other things, so the sewing has been pretty minimal. Sewing Progress My limited sewing time has been … More Monthly Sewing Review – 2025 August Wrap Up
Like June, July has been a rapid and busy month. I feel like I’ve barely been home, and had no time or inclination towards sewing even when I was. It’s been overall a good month for me on a personal level – I’ve been able to see a lot of friends and do a lot … More Monthly Sewing Review – 2025 July Wrap Up
June has flown by. It’s been an incredibly busy month, which has been fun, but it also feels a bit like I’m just trying to hold on for the ride. No sewing to report, though I have been reading some new books I hope to review on the blog soon. This is going to be … More Monthly Sewing Review – 2025 June Wrap Up
I… honestly can’t even really believe it’s the end of May. It didn’t seem like it while I was going through it, but now that I’m a bit more caught up with reality it feels like I lost a lot of time to the vortex of jury duty. This month has been busy, and the … More Monthly Sewing Review – 2025 May Wrap Up
I posted my review of the AFI Elegance Bra a while back, but at the time I noted that I wasn’t entirely pleased with the fit of the bra because the upper cup was just a bit tight. I’ve gone back to remake the pattern and test my theory that a stretch upper cup would … More Adventures in Bra Sewing: Elegance Bra Again
