The Sage Skirt



I love a good maxi skirt!! You can dress it up for a special occasion. You can also wear it with with a t-shirt and still look great.  The Sage Skirt by The Sewing Addiction is an easy to sew, high waist maxi skirt that is flawless!!!  This maxi skirt with the high waist is a unique twist on a classic design. 




If you're running low on time and are in need of a statement piece to make  then this maxi skirt pattern is for you. From cut to wear it took me a total of about 2 hours.  The instructions for this pattern are so easy to follow and has illustrations to go along with each step. 





The Sage Skirt requires at least 2 yards of knit fabric. Sly Fox Fabrics provided me with this beautiful fabric.  Bourbon Street in Black is the name of this golden and unique double brushed poly plaid. This pretty fabric is extra soft to make this maxi skirt the ultimate comfort. This pattern also requires 2" wide elastic for the waistband. Tip: To get the best fit for your waistband, use your high waist measurements then add 1".




I was inspired by the name of this fabric, Bourbon Street, when I styled this maxi skirt. I paired it with an athletic racerback top and a strappy bralet from Victoria's Secret. I added a couple of gold necklaces to give a slight New Orleans cool night vibe. I feel like I'm ready for anything in this outfit!!



Things that I love about this Pattern:

*Sizes XS - XXL
*Illustrated Steps
*Quick and Easy to Sew

Men's Emmett T-shirt

In all the years that I've been sewing, I've never made anything for Phillip. Now I can no longer say that sentence. I recently tested the  Emmet T-Shirt  by Laela Jeyne patterns. Not only did he love it he kept complimenting the softness of the shirt. I used double brushed poly knit fabric that I recieved from  Knitpop .   The Emmett Tee has lots of options: henley style, polo, or plain t-shirt. There are even different sleeve length options. The sizes range from XS-3X. I chose to make the plain tee in a size L with short sleeves. I think the shirt fits him very well. he liked the fact that there is actually a shirt that is custom made for his height (6'3). I added 1 inch to the length of the shirt just for his comfort.  If you've never made a shirt or anything for your significant other, now is the time. This shirt only takes 1.75 yards of fabric to make. The instructions are clearly written with lots of photos to follow. Th...

Lollapolooza Top

It's officially hot here in Bossier City, La.  Though while it isn't summer yet, we are in the season of pre-summer. It's time to bring out the practical, cool, and comfortable apparel. The Lollapalooza Top  by  George + Ginger  is all of the above!! This breezy top is sure to be one of your favorites this hot, hot spring! The Lolla Top is an off the shoulder top, which I love, with beautiful accentuated flared gathered sleeves. This off the shoulder top is designed to be one of the most comfortable tops. With 3/8" elastic in the neckline, this shoulder showing top does not slide down, it stays in it's place. I can totally appreciate a  top that I don't have to fight with all day. The flared gathered sleeve  is just so charming. I'm an adult who would wear ruffles everyday if given the chance.  The gathered sleeves of this peasant style top gives it such a dainty feel. Don't be intimidated by the ruffles, it is really eas...

Drama Dress

When velvet first came into the fabric lovers world, I was not it's greatest fan. I thought that the fabric was outdated and just ugly. Well I've since changed my mind. When I saw this green stretch velvet I knew it would be the perfect compliment to my  Drama Dress  by G+G. It's such a simple yet sophisticated piece for a cool night out. The Drama Dress has a great draping effect. There are two fit options; slim or full. I went with the slim fitting version. I like that this dress shows off the right curves but is not too tight and revealing. I can still feel glamorous even when I'm not feeling my lightest. With the Drama Dress,  G+G  has given us many options. There are 4 different neckline options; collar, keyhole, bowtie, and basic. I wanted a basic dress so I went with the basic neckline. There are also 4 sleeve choices; long 3/4th, short and sleeveless. I wanted to include some dramatics to the drama so I added 6 inches to the long ...
