She’s so purrrdy...🥰 that’s all... Pattern is #adrienneblouse by @fridaypatterncompany
Fabric is from @fabricdotcom

Hey guys! I just uploaded my first video on my IGTV channel. DIY pattern weights! This is a video that I filmed a couple years ago but never uploaded because I didn’t think anyone would be interested. Mostly because they are just so simple to make and I thought it would be a meh project to share. That’s me always second guessing myself 🙄. But! I’ve gotten messages about them, so now here’s the video. These pattern weights have been a game changer for me. No more using cans 😄! Go check it out and tag me if you make some of your own. Enjoy!

Kicking off the new year with the super pretty #adrienneblouse by @fridaypatterncompany . I haven’t sewn anything in a while, so I thought I’d start with a quick but satisfying project. The only thing that’s 😏 is that I wish my fabric was a little bit more opaque. Oh well...we shall see. Also, I don’t think I have any elastic 🤔, so I might have to run over to the fabric shop later (Birdbox challenge style so I don’t buy anything else). Wish me luck! 😊 What’s your first sewing project of 2019?

Had to take a photo of my sewing table before it gets messy again in about 5 minutes. Can you relate? Are you a tidy sewist or the thread clippings everywhere and fabric scraps left on the cutting table type? I usually get on a roll and forget to clean up as I go. I'm trying to get better guys. This year, this year 😋. Share some tips with me will ya?

I haven’t been this excited about a trend in a long time. It’s definitely helped bring my sewjo back. Are you down with animal print? Yes? No? Tell me coz I’m curious👇🏼. There’s inspo in my stories if you need some convincing. 😋

Hi all! How’s it going? I hope you’re enjoying your May so far. As for me, I am still recovering from a mini family vacation we had last weekend. Anyone else need a vacation after a vacation? Introvert alert over here 🤪. Anyway, I just wanted to drop in to say thank you for all of your sweet comments on my #mmmay18 posts. The sewing community is truly one of the kindest, most supportive community that I’ve ever been a part of. Like seriously, you guys are SO awesome! Also, I’ve noticed some beautiful new faces 😍. If you’ve followed me within the last week, 🤗 Hi there, I see you 😘. My name is Maycie, a sewist since 15 (now 35), wife to a handsome dude named Ben, mama of four (two humans + two pups), from the central coast of California. Welcome! If I’m not mistaken, we share the same passion for all things sewing. Yay! In my feed I share a lot about the projects I’m currently working on, things that are inspiring me at the moment, and once in a while, some mini sewing tutorials. I feel like there’s so much more for me to learn, so I’m looking forward to seeing all of your posts and sewing tips. Thank you so much for joining me on my sewing adventure - I’m so happy to meet you! Aside from sewing, I love to read, go for walks around my town, eat chocolate (chocolate is my kryptonite), cook (not that I’m any good at it 😆), do yoga, watch Vanderpump Rules 😉...If you’ve made it this far down my post, please leave a little snippet about yourself in the comment section below. Whether you’re an old sewing friend or new, I’d love to learn more about you. 😊♥️ Btw, today I’m wearing my @inthefolds #peppermintjumpsuit . This pattern is so good, brilliant even. I just wish I had made it in a different color. It’s a linen/rayon mix called putty. Putty?! It was a better idea in the fabric store 🤦🏻‍♀️

Casual Friday wearing another @grainlinestudio #mossskirt ! I love this pattern so much guys, so much so that I recently ordered true black denim from @blackbirdfabrics to make my third one. It’s a silhouette that will never go out of trend, so I may make it in every color denim I get my hands on. This white @robertkaufman denim one from @fabricdotcom was my first. I shoulda sized down tbh, but ya know, I think it still turned out cute and wearable. I’ll be assembling my pdf #persephonepants pattern tonight (💃🏻!!!). Whoa! Party girl over here 😜! What’re your weekend plans? Sewing? Not sewing? Just chillin’ out? I wanna know.👇🏼#mmmay18

Hands free purse-ing is the only option today. 🏃🏻‍♀️I have a full day of errands to run, but I got this 👊🏼. Wearing a #hemlocktee by @grainlinestudio and my #fennelfannypack by @sarkirsten . My husband @canonismyweapon is taking our daughter to the @taylorswift concert this weekend, so I’m on a mission to find a transparent bag for them to take to Levi Stadium. It’s the only kind they allow in and I don’t have time to make one. @target , please have said bag. #mmmay18

“Oh! You’re in white!” I’m quoting my mother-in-law 😁. Wearing my favorite @gap white tee with my favorite #astertieskirt by @sarkirsten 💕 Plaid fabric is from @moodfabrics #mmmay18 #moodmademay18
