I promise I really do know how to iron, but when Mommy has to carry you through the stream, wrinkles happen. Well, we’ve finally reached the end of the Out to Sea Collection, but I’ve saved one of my favorites for last. This Lily Pulitzer dress was one that I had originally pinned to my… Read More
I love homemade clothes that have a story to them, and this dress is definitely one of those! Way way back this past Memorial Day weekend, we took a trip to the beach so that I could do as many mini photo-shoots as Aurelia could possibly handle for the clothes from the Out to Sea… Read More
Wow, I didn’t realize until now just how many refashions there were in this Out to Sea collection! This time though instead of just shrinking them down, I took two t-shirts and turned them into a whole new outfit. Man I love that Reli’s still tiny! First I cut the green and white tee… Read More
Am I getting a bit too cheesy with the whole “nautical” theme yet? Sorry, but I just can’t help myself.

While I’ve been so busy with all of Aurelia’s summer clothes (which she doesn’t even need!), poor Corbin has been forced to wear the same five outfits over and over again. I’m sure he couldn’t care less, but it kinda makes me feel bad that he’s been left out. Unfortunately, I don’t have much experience… Read More
Isn’t it funny how the simplest sewing project is always your kid’s favorite? You could spend hours on special details, ribbons, embroidery, piping, etc. and they will completely ignore it in favor of the t-shirt you slapped together in 15 minutes one afternoon. That’s exactly what happened with this dress. It was never part… Read More
