The Penny Pullover is available now on my website (link in bio)! It’s my ultimate #memademay!
#ThePennyPullover is a vintage inspired raglan sweatshirt sewing pattern. It is unisex and ranges from 29”-61” bust. The pattern includes a copy shop and print at home PDFs. While the pattern includes written instructions, I have also posted a YouTube video walking through construction!
I’m so excited to have this out!! For those of you wondering, penny is my cat pictured above. The pattern is named after her!
Idk where y’all live but Atlanta is already getting a bit sweaty, so I figure it’s the perfect time to release a sweater pattern 🥵😂
Making a sewing pattern is hard work, but I couldn’t have done it without my wonderful testers who offered their time and resources to provide feedback on my pattern. Thank you to everyone who tested!! Tester roundups to come 🤩
This pattern has really been a long time coming, as I’m sure you know if you’ve been following along. I’ve had serious moments of imposter syndrome and feelings of inadequacy. Getting through those moments were tough, but it really came down to not rushing the process, and literally nobody was rushing me but me 😂
I don’t say all this to guilt you into getting the pattern, but to let you know that if you’ve had those feelings, it’s ok, me too 🤍 thank you to everyone who has supported me and encouraged me along the way!
Ok luv u kiss kiss go get the pattern if you want 🥰
ok so i made my dress for my best friend’s wedding but that’s honestly not the focus of this post. I will post again with deets but tldr this is the #rosecafebustier with a gathered skirt made from orange silk 🍊
It was such an incredible honor to be able to celebrate two of my fave people getting married. @mercedesbleth & @alexxtorrey , being around such a loving group of people was a testament to who y’all are as people and I am so happy to have made such lovely memories with you and your loved ones 🥰
Thanks for entrusting me to give a speech and giving the opportunity to visit Mexico, me gusta mucho y quiero volver.
I hope everyone has the opportunity to have friends like these. Kind, intentional, creative and fun, I could go on and on but I’m just real happy to know ya and luv ya 🧡
I didn’t take all these pics, I stole them from the people in the other pics. Main pics by my main, @alexisallgood 🧡
it’s finally release day for the #STsidetietop! link in bio if you wanna peep it 👀
With two construction views, the Steph Time side tie top is an intermediate sewing pattern for a cropped and reversible top with a high neckline and side ties. This top is so versatile and can be worn layered or on its own. I love my tank versions just as much as a I love my quilted versions, so I had to include both in this pattern!
In this pattern we will be tackling the burrito method, bias binding, making skinny straps, as well as some familiar or new-to-you fun techniques. This pattern is also great for stash busting for all sizes, especially if you decide to make your own quilted piece. Sew along videos coming soon! 🧡
A big thank you to my testers who provided excellent, detailed and helpful feedback that helped this pattern become more well-thought out and a better fit for all. I’ll be sharing their creations all day!
Me made May day 12 ✨
#proteapants made from the softest washed linen. So so soft, so so wrinkly! Paired with a modified #lolatank made from secondhand fabric. This tank is SOOOOO worn lol I need to make another! I love my basics!
Also worn with a secondhand linen Talbots jacket that I just replaced the buttons on 🤭

A classic for featuring the Elliot top by @coolstitches & some of my favorite self-drafted trousers. Need to work on it and turn it into a pattern!
Also featuring some freshly picked strawberries 🍓

reporting in for me made May no. 5 ➡️ swipe for a surprise visitor 🤭
Pants are modified #helenejeans (@annaallenclothing ) & this #fridayslipover (@petiteknit ) was knit with yarn from Hobbii who I will not be working with in the future because of their proclamation of love for ai (👎🏻 bold take for a craft supply company.) sorry that was weird to just bring up, but I have worked with them in the past, have many many things using their yarn, (and have loads of yarn to get through), but I can’t stand by them atp. 🙅🏻♀️
Ty for snapping these @happilydressed

happy me made may to all who celebrate. 🌸
i gotta say, my proudest makes of late I grew and picked for you in the later slides 💐
Today I’m wearing a modified gilbert top made from heavy weight double gauze (I finally added buttons! These three were buried in my button stash and were just perfect) paired with some banana republic jeans I’ve worn for two years straight, dyed back to blue and now need to patch because my phone made a hole in the back pocket from bending down to look at my plants too much.
I gotta say, my relationship with sewing has been weird the past couple of years. Monetizing and constantly analyzing my creative practice kinda sucked the joy out of it. (Booooo burnout sucks)
I intend to use this month to take a look at my me made wardrobe and see what wants to stay, what wants to go,and what new projects will be on the cutting table next.
That being said, I’ve actively been trying to create more from a place of inspiration and excitement, and to pull on the thread of interest, just as I’ve done with sewing, and gardening has really been that outpouring of curiosity and passion for me. I hope you don’t mind me sharing a bit of that over here too. 🌼

new hat & scarf hot off the needles 🧶
it’s pretty nice to knit myself some fun winter accessories, I usually go for larger makes so not only was it nice to have some quick knits, but they get more wear than say, a sweater! not to mention these are legitimately very warm. the cats are also loving them hehe

The Sol Oven Set sewing pattern in full swing this holiday season! The perfect quick sew and gift! 🎁 pdf pattern available on my website ❄️

finished another pair of socks, this time as an anniversary present! they turned out very squishy and the colors are just superb! nothing beats knitting by the fire 🔥
I used the comfort socks pattern from the ozetta sock pack and knit with the silly socks self-striping yarn from @hobbii_yarn in the color Diablo. I knit these holding the yarn double, so lining up the striping bits to match was a bit time consuming, and I did run out of yarn halfway through 😛 so if you wanna hold it double, order two skeins lol
Did these take me almost a year? Did they put my hands out of commission because I was trying to knit them in record time? Did they make me fall in love with DPNs? All yes 🙂↕️
