I think I’m addicted. The clothes I would yawn over before are getting a second look in my closet now. To me it’s just as thrilling to revamp something you already own than to go out and buy something new. Because, you made it. It’s yours. And it’s unique. So here is another sweater refashion [...]

Here are a few projects I’ve been working on lately.

Making cute headbands for gifts.

Sewing ring pillows and getting ready for my first retail venture. Brides, if you live in Maryland, check out English Rose Floral Design in historic downtown Annapolis. Tell Joanne that Evie sent you!

I’ve also been thinking about [...]

I decided to share a cute little sewing project I finished the other day. On a whim I decided I wanted a new cardigan with a spring feel, you know, because of the sub-zero temperatures lately. Ha! Anyway, I’m dreaming of Spring and what other color to incorporate than yellow, right? So I took a [...]

Happy 2010 everyone! I trust you had a nice break and are raring to go for another year, and…another decade!
I’ve been experimenting with some projects made of felt that I thought I’d quickly share. For some reason I’ve been on a kick of making things for myself which for some reason, I rarely do. Maybe [...]

Remember that cute purse I made for my niece a few months ago? Well, I slightly modified that concept and made a knit pouch for a little girl named Sarah, and I can’t wait to give it to her! Sarah is in second grade at a school back in Tulsa, and I enjoyed visiting her [...]

Oh how I love accessories! They can make any dull outfit brighter, cuter, and more interesting. Here are some of my favorites I’ve come across this season.

Beautiful handmade headbands from Taza (found via SeeSaw Designs). I’m also a fan of her coat that’s seen in all her photos and awesome red lipstick!

These are creations from [...]

My baby officially turned one year old today. I reflected a lot on all the memories from this time last year. Hearing his cries for the first time, letting those little fingers clasp on to mine, meeting perfection in the form of an 8 pound, 1 ounce little boy. What a joyous year its been!

This [...]

My list of things I want to make is growing, growing, growing. I’ve had to take somewhat of a break in the creative department though. I’ve been busy packing for our move to OKC, scoping out places to live, spending time with my husband who has been in and out of town a lot, and [...]

I promised yesterday I would have something neat to show you! I finished up a handmade purse for my 7-year old niece (it’s her b-day next month) just last night. Oh, it is sooo cute! I’m really proud of it and I couldn’t wait to share it with you.

Basically I just knit a large rectangular [...]

I picked up this vintage ribbon with a beautiful mustard yellow and green pattern. With some leftovers from this project, I used the jersey knit and sewed a length on either end of my cut ribbon. It’s great because I made it originally just for my hair, but it also fits around my waist, so [...]
