That’s right!!! We couldn’t sit this one out!! The pattern had a vintage vibe. Our niece needed some more long-sleeved attire. And, it was October’s “Flip this Pattern” of choice.

Time and time again, we are asked…”Does your sister sew?” The short answer: YES…. …..and NO….. She smocks. “Sister Momma” learned the same way we did….with our hands. No machine….just hand-stitching at its finest. She made this lovely creation YEARS ago….prior to marriage….prior to children. Then, it was tucked away….waiting….patiently, for a sweet child to […]
The journey of this creation actually began 3 years ago.

I feel certain Emily was more […]

Our sister seldom….ummmmm, rarely…..okay, okay….hardly EVER requests a thing from us in regards to sewing. She willing accepts what we’ve sewn, dresses our nieces in whatever garments we send her way, and even takes random pictures of the girls wearing the garments in their daily lives, with a text of “THANK YOU for my….”! Yeah, […]
