Well, summer has came and went. There were so many sewing projects but very little blog time.

Out of all of the things I have made myself, my husband was impressed with this one.

Pirate-Mermaid Swimsuit Mash Up

And we definitely hoard scraps because you never know when those … Continue reading Pirate-Mermaid Swimsuit Mash Up
