Hey, Hey, hey!

As you all know, I’m a BIG fan of Rebecca Page patterns . And she just released a CUTE little romper pattern called the Cerena . (Psst… it’s also on sale for nearly half off!). So, today, I thought I would show you a neat little sewing hack using the bottoms of the pattern: a Yoga Waistband!

Lemme tell you something: I absolutely LOVE yoga waistbands.

The Women’s March on Washington is happening on January 21, 2017 and to celebrate, people are knitting, crocheting, and sewing pink, cat inspired hats, affectionately known as Pussy Hats (read more about the #pussyhatproject here ). Since I don’t knit or crochet (yet!), I thought getting a sewing tutorial would be a great way to include the fabric obsessed.

I was at the fabric store one day, picked out all my beautiful fabric, got it cut, headed to the counter to pay, and… realized I didn’t have my wallet . ARGH! Not only was it embarrassing, but a total time waster.

Quiltcon is coming up, and I’m so excited to be working at The Cloth Pocket booth. I created a badge holder for the show, and thought I would share it with you!

I'm Miranda, and, you guessed it, I have purple hair! I've been sewing the better part of my life and am on a mission to sew ALL THE THINGS.

I love all things bright, whimsical, and absurd. I live in the country with my chickens, The Golden Girls, 3 wee ones 5 and under, Mr. Man, and Max, our Betta. This is my exploration of life, sewing, and (hopefully) not losing my sanity.

Oh! E-mail me your best pun or dad joke, ok?
