I just had to post another Meadowood outfit becaus I just had to post another Meadowood outfit because it surprised me.  I knew I liked Meadowood and Phinney Ridge together but this combination and the distressed jeans just made me happy.

I love finding new ways to wear my clothes.

The bias binding on Meadowood is such a great stas The bias binding on Meadowood is such a great stash buster.  I like going through my scrap bin to find a fun coordinating fabric to add a pop of colour or pattern to my top. ⁣
⁣
It makes the top even better and uses some of the scraps that pile up.  Really it's a win/win in my book.⁣
⁣
Today is the last day of the Meadowood sewalong and it all about buttons and buttonholes.  Plus I share how you can skip the buttonholes if you just don't want to take on sewing 8 of them.⁣

The one thing I have come to realize with my Meado The one thing I have come to realize with my Meadowood blouses is that they look great both on their own and layered with other patterns I have.⁣
⁣
Yesterday I wore it with skinny jeans, moccasins, and a linen Leavenworth jacket.  I love when a garment can be transitioned through the seasons.⁣
⁣
Today is day 5 of the Meadowood sewalong where I am teaching you all about how to finish the neckline and front placket with bias tape.  I may be crazy, but I love working with bias tape.⁣

It's Day 4 of the Meadowood Sewalong. Today is al It's Day 4 of the Meadowood Sewalong.  Today is all about sewing the front and back together and getting all ready for the bias tape tomorrow. ⁣
⁣
The biggest skill in this video is going over my method for gathering fabric.  It's not nearly as difficult as it can seem.⁣
⁣
Head to the link in my bio for the video and grab your copy of the pattern to sew along with me.⁣

It's Day 3 of the Meadowood Sewalong. Today is al It's Day 3 of the Meadowood Sewalong.  Today is all about cutting out your fabric and making bias strips.⁣
⁣
I don't provide fabric layout guides in my patterns so today's video is a great example of how I cut out pattern pieces.  It also explains my reasoning behind not providing them in patterns.⁣
⁣
And just a reminder, there is a coupon code in the video description if you haven't already picked up your copy of the pattern.⁣

Keeping it comfy while editing the Meadowood sew-a Keeping it comfy while editing the Meadowood sew-along.
It is such a strange holiday season this year for It is such a strange holiday season this year for so many of us.  What would normally be a time to get together with people we love is now a chance for us to stay home and keep everyone safe and healthy.

I have spent the last few weeks doing things that make me happy and just a little less homesick.  Some of that is work and some are just for me.  I hope you will take this opportunity to spend time doing the things you love.

There are going to be so many sales this week especially for small businesses.  I encourage you to find a way to support them even if that means just a share of a post or a shoutout on stories.  It doesn't always mean a purchase.

This business has been a labour of love for the last 6 years and I appreciate all of you who have been along for the ride.  If there is a pattern you have been thinking about getting make sure to take advantage of the sale this week.  Save 20% off patterns with code GIVING20.

Happy Holidays and stay home, or wear a mask if you must leave the house!! This is only temporary but it could mean life or death for so many people around you.
