Tom - the Hero from Beast Quest Costume

Tom from Beast Quest - costume details

Hello Sewing friends! Anyone else have a "Halloween hangover"? Too much junk food for me. I'm showing off my son's finished costume today. Introducing Tom, the hero from Beast Quest. 

Scout Book Hanging Pocket Tutorial

Scout Book Hanging Pocket Tutorial - Blue Susan Makes

One of the things I love about having my sewing machine sitting at the ready is that I can quickly sew things for my family and my home as the need arises. This week I used my sewing skills to solve a little organization dilemma, and whipped up a little book pocket for my son's scout book. It has been the perfect solution for busy nights. I'll show you how to make one too!

Big Kid Face Mask - Free Pattern

Hello Sewing Friends!! I don't know about you but it is high time we refreshed our handmade masks over here. My littlest grew out of his small masks so I created a free pattern for one that is just the right size for big kids who don't quite fit into adult sized masks yet. 

My Present to Max

My Max loves wearing a robe. His beloved robe was getting a we bit too short so he asked for a new one for Christmas.  


I just laid out his old one and made cut a new one from the old, adding a little width and length.  Polar fleece is so forgiving. It turned out great despite some minor pattern inconsistencies.  


I left it un-hemmed on the bottom and sleeves just so I could make sure it was the right length. Then I finished it up after Christmas.  Now I have a Happy Max with a robe that fits!
