Last week I said to myself, "Meg, you need a new white buttonup shirt. A classic, simple, white buttonup. The one you made a few years back is a little snug and a little stained."

Polka Dot BHL Hannah Dress
I hope you're ready for a series of woven wrap dresses... I've gone down a woven wrap rabbit hole and I'll be doing a bit of a comparison over the next few weeks!

Plum week continues! Today I'm sharing a plum-colored double gauze version of the Made by Rae Beatrix blouse on Imagine Gnats, but I'm talking about my wearable muslin (which also reads plum) here!

Floral Dove Blouse: The Sequel
My mom really loved the Megan Nielsen Dove Blouse we made her a few months ago, and I had a piece of cotton lawn purchased from Belleboo with her in mind, so the combination was a no-brainer.

Megan Nielsen Dove Blouse
I was jonesing for Megan Nielsen's latest, the Dove blouse, from the first sneak peeks.
That v-neck, the extreme curved hem (with a hem facing!), those pretty angled bust darts...

Purple Piped Pajamas
Although I adored the idea of the Closet Case Files Carolyn Pajamas from the get-go (and subsequently saw gorgeous piped pajamas everywhere after that- see The Mindy Project, etc.), I didn't really neeeeeeeed any pajamas when the pattern was first released.

Lace Print Gallery Tunic
The sewing blog and indie sewing pattern worlds have been abuzz with tons of new tunic patterns lately (see Hey June Cheyenne, Itch to Stitch Mila, etc).
