Another non-garment sewing project finished, fresh off the success of my scrappy quilted Christmas tree skirt: a rug!

Vintage Wool Auburn Blazer
Robin (of Stash) and I decided to sew blazers last spring. We had a sewing day together, did a ton of work, but a blazer takes longer than a day to sew, and I stalled out once I got home. Cooler weather and the #Worktober prompt from Alexandria Arnold got me in gear to finish it up!

Georgia Tee x Three
I recently made three versions of the Elizabeth Suzann Georgia tee, a favorite pattern of mine, all from stash fabric. Such a satisfying, palette-cleansing sew! And a wearable basic.

Crinkle Cotton Slub Sydney Designer Dress
It's summer dress season, folks! It's the time of year that I want to be wearing a lot of fabric that never really touches my body in any way.

Happy Feet Quilted Sneakers
Recently I took a fun day-long workshop at a local-ish quilt shop, Quilter's Corner: quilted sneaker making!
Turns out it's difficult to take photos of shoes on your own feet!

Ruby Overalls for Wario
This project started very differently... namely as a Halloween costume for Tim! It's been an unfinished project since then, but one of my Me Made May goals was to finish up some UFOs.

Jenna Shirt with Ina Energy
I've been on a shirt-making spree, and this latest project is giving big Ina Garten cooking for a cocktail party in the Hamptons vibes. Or maybe Ina Garten cooking a Friday night roast chicken for Jeffrey vibes.

Indigo-Dyed Haskell Shirt
I've been planning some indigo dyeing after listening to a very interesting presentation from Jackie Reno about the indigo process from growing your own indigo, to fermenting it, to dyeing with it.

Improv Quilted Jacket
This was such a fun and satisfying project!
I pieced this jacket entirely from linen and linen-blend scraps from my previous sewing projects, and then I hand quilted it.

Waxed Canvas Akerfeldt Coat
This was a entertaining, but labor intensive project! For Tim's birthday (albeit finished a little bit late), I sewed him this fun and hopefully functional water-repellant hooded coat.
