I’ve posted a handful of times about these adorable boys neck ties I’ve been making by the handful but I have yet to do a full tutorial. Since I just drew up all my own neck tie patterns, a real, full-blown tutorial is in order. MATERIALS iron (39.95 USD) 1/8 yard fabric for tie front […]
Get the pattern. Get the tutorial. Tie the tie. I’ve posted a few times about making toddler neck ties and I FINALLY got all my stuff together to create my very own printable pattern. For you! For FREE!!! This is my first ever original sewing pattern and I’m so excited about it! Size 1 […]
I have been really trying to make the most of our quiet mornings with Elliot gone to kindergarten and give Gus some one-on-one time AND some preschool activities. So we are now charting the weather AND learning the days of the week. Making a weather chart is so easy and there are tons of different ways […]
