As I look at my vacation photos, I am reminded of how important it is to take a break and just rest and regroup. I will not be posting for a couple of weeks, so that I can focus on work and family. I will also be taking time to finish up the last pieces of my summer collection. I have sewn my butt off this summer, and I am so very proud of all the new addition to my #memade wardrobe. I will be on here to like and uplift you on your posts, and from time to time I will share instastories of my sewing progress. Thank you guys for your constant support and kind words, it truly makes a difference. #takeabreak #restandregroup . . #sewing #dress #florals #creativelife #livecolorfully #ilovecolor #yellow #pink #doitfortheprocess #creativedesign #handmade #imadeit #sewcialists #sewersofinstagram #mccallspatterns #imadeit

The first day of school left my cheeks in a lot of pain from smiling so hard 😁. Those little kindergarteners came in so cheerful and ready for their first journey into big kids world. The third graders (including my son 😮) were all too excited to join the upper class on the second floor. For them, the second floor means you are now truly in big kid territory 😂😂. I smiled hard at the sound of them high fiving and cheering about being upstairs away from the little kids 😂😂😂. The fifth graders (including my daughter 🙀) came in extra hyped that they are now the seniors of elementary school. For me, I am excited for another year of teaching, inspiring, and uplifting these kids, and reminding them that their possibilities are endless.

One of my favorite movie is Pleasantville. I love how Reese Witherspoon and Tobey Maguire brought color to a black and white world. In my everyday life, I wear a lot of black, but I often add color with clothing options and/or accessories. I found this beautiful black and white floral linen fabric at JoAnns and I knew right away that I wanted to make a layered maxi skirt. I also made a cute crop top using a knit lace fabric also from JoAnns.

When the weather won't let you be great, you dress up your dressform. I absolutely love how this look came together, and I can't wait to wear my new #sewfit. I have truly come to love adding pops of color with my neutral makes. With this look, I paired my black and white floral skirt with a red lace knit top for the pop of color. .
