I took Alisa’s advice yesterday… :) I didn’t know what to sew and she said make what you need most in your closet. Simple advice and yet so true! And what do I need most right now!? Pajama shorts! A simple project but much needed! I took Ruthie’s lead and used my McCALL’S M6848 pattern – view D. I had just enough of this blue gingham fabric from my grandma stash to make these. They’re super comfy – I’ll definitely be making more! Until next time,

I always get excited when I see BDAR pups in the vests that I’ve made. Here’s a picture from an adoption drive that I stole from Facebook the other day: Pretty sure this sweet baby has already been adopted, but you can see all the other awesome adoptable BDAR pups here. Here’s what I’ve made so far… let me know if you have any suggestions for new ones. It’s almost about time to make another batch :) And if anyone ever uses my tutorial for adopt-me vests, please send pictures! I would love love love to see them! Adopt Me Vests – Round One plus a rough tutorial Adopt Me Vests – Round Two Donation Dog Vests Until next time,
When I was younger, my favorite bathing suit was zebra print and hot pink; along with that, I still have a furry zebra print blanket in my living room. I guess I have a soft spot for the pattern. :) At this point in my life, I wouldn’t normally look for something zebra print to actually wear, but as soon as I read the theme of the Monthly Stitch July challenge… I knew I’d found a use for the zebra print fabric I’ve had lying around since Christmas. Pattern used: By Hand London – Polly Top In an effort to stick with my Summer Stashbust plan and not buy any new fabric until September… the black fabric came from another one of Danny’s ripped pairs of work pants. :) Because I had to cut it from two pieces, I just pieced them together in the middle. The grain is off… but it’s black… it goes together well enough…right!? :) For some reason when I cut fabric, I seem to forget that I’m trying to …
