Welcome

I've started this blog in order to share my sewing projects with family and friends.  This way mom won't be startled out of a sound sleep when I text her pictures at midnight, I guess.  I'm still a bit of a novice when it comes to sewing, though I hope to gain enough expertise to sew most of my own clothes.

I am helped in these efforts by my husband, who will be known as Sweetie since that's what I call him, and our six cats.  Sweetie is not an artsy-crafty kind of guy, though he does show some interest in the technical aspects of sewing and appreciates what I've made for him (which as of right now consists of one windbreaker).  The cats adore sewing, particularly Lilly who is a calico and will take a running leap onto any pattern piece mamacat has ever so carefully pinned to thread-perfect fabric.

I started with pajama pants (I've made about twenty), casual pants and shirts.  I've since progressed to more advanced sewing and trying to incorporate couture finishes and construction.  I've made my winter coat and am now working on a formal dress for myself.

Enjoy!
