Another little piece of my heart ~ #FABsessed


I have always been told I am an older soul, a bit of a 'hippy', 70's child born a few decades to late. As I have gotten a little older, I have learned to be proud of this an embrace it, its more of a compliment than I realized. 


When I saw this Blueberry Slush tie dye fabric from The Fab Clique I really felt a deep need for it. I wasn't sure what to make with it I just new I needed it. Sometimes you just look at something and know given time it will be great. 


I have learned a lot about fabrics over the last 2 years, what to use them for, what types are better for certain projects. One of the best things about the Fab Clique to me is that the website has great info on it to to really help you decide on if its right for your project. In this case I had no idea what I was going to make in the end I just new I needed this one, and that it would make a great top for here in Hawaii. 


I looked around for a pattern that really felt right. I wanted one that would fit the fabric, and my feelings towards it. Something that reflected my old soul, but was still adaptable to my current fashion sense as well. When I saw the Phoenix from Hey June Patterns it just clicked. 


I loved the subtle lines and relaxed fit of it, the ties and yoke of the front. It is a bit plain some might say but its got this great vintage, older 70's vibe to me. It was perfect for this fabric! It checked all the boxes to really show off this beautiful print and give me this light, airy top. Makes me want to go to the beach or sing some Janis. Really when I look at it I have to smile, cause it makes me feel good.

Lily Rose - Toy Story Guest Call

I am so excited that I was picked to guest seamstress for  Lily Rose Custom Fabrics . I was sent 2 panels and coordinate in her lush DBP (double brush poly, think those leggings that are butter soft, only better 😏) I made my younger siblings some cute things! This is a pattern a bit of my own making, little of this little of that and a cool muscle tank for my little brother, he loved showing it off!  How cute is he?!  Not to be out done in the drama department Kaylee brought the sass in spades. This is the glitter coordinate from this round. I made her a  Citron Twist  from  Candy Castle Pattern Company .  This is the  Banana Pudding  also from Candy Castle Patterns, they are one of my favorites and she loves this top!  I paired it up with these  Jupiter Joggers  I tested a few weeks ago now, cause she loves this style so much. The pocket is perfect for a panel accent to complete the ...

Pride Keychains (Coming Soon)

  Let’s talk Pride Keychains! As someone who is apart of the community, these keychains bring me an immense amount of joy. I am going to be showing several pictures of the keychain set I made for myself as samples.  These are a few variations of the three keychain designs, I made for myself and as samples. Now I am going to show you a picture of each design. My plan is to make a couple of each design for the website with white vinyl and black vinyl.  The flower is pretty cute, and I love the LGBTQIA+ design!  Now, the “LOVE” design below is the Pansexual flag, because I am Pan and I made these as samples. With that being said, I will have a couple different options up on the website (I’ll get into those in a second). And if you would like a Pride Love design but I haven’t made it yet for the website, then you are free to message me with the special request.  The options I will have available on the website will be a one color design, Agender, Asexual, Bisexual, ...
