DragonCon Countdown: 23 days! I’ve been putting off making this outfit, thought it might take a while, or more likely, Olivia would change her mind and be completely uninterested in it by the time that DragonCon rolled around. But it was quick and easy so far, just need some finishing touches and she is adoring […]
Honeybee Shirt: Pocket or No Pocket?
DragonCon Countdown: 24 days! Ok while not really DragonCon related, I used the honeybee fabric that I bought from Spoonflower to make a shirt for my Metro Atlanta Beekeeping meeting on Wednesday. With the colors I chose, it is also something White and Gold I can wear on game days for Georgia Tech! Only issue […]
Working on Claire Dearing’s Outfit
DragonCon Countdown: 25 days!! While on vacation this weekend, I spent some time watching Jurassic World while prepping meals. I still love the original Jurassic Park best, but love the new movie and the music for it! Definitely one of my favorite soundtracks.

An Ode to my Seam Ripper
DragonCon Countdown: 28 days! Seam Ripper, dear Seam Ripper, I would be lost without you. I would have no clothing without you. I would also not learn to sew without you. You allow me to make all the mistakes I want and still be able to undo them. Sometimes I feel like I spend more […]

The new Fabric’s Here, The new Fabric’s here! I’m Somebody Now!!
DragonCon Countdown: 30 days!! So I’ve been dreaming/scheming for months about new clothing.

I love many of the fabric’s I see at Joann’s that have nerdy designs on them, but some of […]

Wonder Woman Inspired Swimsuit
DragonCon Countdown: 32 days!! Ok this outfit isn’t officially for Dragoncon but nerd inspired nonetheless and necessary for the beach this weekend. A couple weeks ago, I was at my in-laws pool wearing a bathing suit that I bought soon after having Olivia, and went down the slide (my favorite part of the pool) and […]
Scarlet Witch Semi-Final Touches: Necklace and Nails!
DragonCon Countdown: 35 days!! I am a craft supply hoarder. I can not seem to get rid of craft supplies from projects and hobbies long forgotten, but sometimes that comes in handy! I still own clay supplies and necklace supplies, so I was able to make the necklace that Scarlet Witch wears. I mixed together […]
