What have you been up to these days given our current circumstances? During this time of #sewcialdistancing my babylocksewing machine and nintendo Switch have been my BFFs. I’ve been working through some projects that I’ve felt behind on and playing LOTS of Animal Crossing 😂
Since I’m working from home I have been using my breaks to sew a seam or two. I’m also knitting during my meetings which actually helps me pay more attention. Now I just wish it was socially acceptable to knit at the office during meetings 😅

My ithinksew Noel Bag is complete and I’m in love with it! I made the XL size and it’s such a great carry-all bag that is perfect for the gym or beach. I can fit all my ice skating clothing and gear in it with room to spare!
I’m also loving this fabric from spoonflower. The watercolor lotus design by katrinkastem is gorgeous and I found lining fabric to match it perfectly!
If you’re looking to make a tote style bag I highly recommend this pattern!

I finally finished my greenstylecreations #sundancejacket and love how it turned out 😍 the back pleated panel is adorable (swipe to see the front) and I think this will make a cute jacket to wear to my figure skating lessons ⛸ when they start up again, of course...
To be honest this jacket was mildly frustrating because I am still very new to zippers and generally just suck at sewing knits 😅 I am now a big fan of sewing activewear so hopefully I get a lot better the more I sew!

I made my first pair of activewear leggings!! I made the greenstylecreations Inspire Leggings w/ the Moto hack. You can’t tell by this first pic because my leggings are black so detail is lost, so swipe to see the moto panels! I am so happy with how these turned out as I’ve been wanting moto leggings for so long but RTW options for me never worked out. The moto panels are always super disproportionate and even petite/crop length still bunched at the ankle. With these leggings, I was actually able to use the crop length option, adjust the panels up higher on my thigh and calf, and decreased the size of the panels too to be proportionate with my short legs 😂
I’m officially obsessed with sewing my own activewear and look forward to adding more to my wardrobe!

I’m so happy that I finally get to work on my greenstylecreations Sundance Jacket! I was hoping to have it finished by last month, but life. So far I have the back finished and I’m loving the pleated back panel.
I also love my new method of pattern storage! So much cleaner than my previous method of storing my PDF patterns in hanging file folders 😅 I purchased 10x13 Brown Kraft envelopes on Amazon and being able to label it this way makes it really easy to find.

Meeting up with my fellow knitters breezy_makes and heidi_wears while eating the most adorable Dr Seuss themed donuts at hellosugar 🍩 🧶
This is definitely my kind of Sunday.

When your upcoming project’s color palette matches your babylocksewing machine 🙌🏽
I’m so excited to make a new bag with my spoonflower fabric! These beautiful watercolor designs are so amazing and look like they were freshly painted on this fabric. The lotus pattern is cypress cotton canvas and herringbone pattern will be my lining using the petal signature cotton!
Lotus pattern by katrinkastem and herringbone pattern by Thinline Textiles.
