Easy To Sew Tunic

-




I'm definitely one whose's always on the hunt for clothes that are comfortable these days especially when I have such a busy schedule during the week ( Home health at home as well as in the evenings away from home ) and I'm even busier on weekends with running errands, church, spending quality time with family which usually entails me cooking dinner, hosting and/or attending an event or engaging in one of my most favorite things....SEWING!! Oh no I can't go for too long without stitching something together.  Which brings me to share with you all, a few details about this long tunic with splits on each side. I wore this very comfy top today with one of my favorite pairs of skinny leg jeans ( old, from Chico's ). This tunic was a very easy make with the Simplicity Pattern 8138 view A and the fabric I used was a med weight 100% polyester and is the reason I opt to not make the cap sleeves as shown on the model in the picture.  The layout and instructions were very easy to follow and with that being said, I'm making another one soon... more than likely it will be the shorter version with the tie belt and in a silky type of fabric and it will also have the cap sleeves.  Thanks for visiting and viewing my blog and remember....you too can make it if you try, just DIY!!!  Blessings everyone!

  Hi loves, well June is almost over, and come to think of it June is the halfway mark of this year being almost over as well.  When starting this blog my goal has been to post something here at least once if not twice a month and the  last day of June is fastly approaching.  So, without further ado let me give you a few details about my makes for this month.  I made this top and skirt a few Summers ago with this gorgeous floral linen  fabric that I purchased at Joann Fabrics but on the other hand I might have purchased it at Hancock Fabric before they went out of business ( I'm still sad about that, I really enjoyed shopping there ). I used a pattern to make the top and the skirt was self drafted .  The top is pullover with elastic neckline and 3/4 length sleeve with flounce .  The skirt is a straight line, maxi length with elastic in waist. As you can see in the photos ( below ), I have paired the top with pants ( an old purchase from Dillards ) and I paired the S

Got Faith!

According to God's word in the book of Hebrew Chapter 11 verse 1 says Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see. That is one pretty simple definition of  faith ( I appreciate it being so simple God, thank you ) While faith is putting our trust in something we cannot see, it doesn't mean that there is no evidence for that faith.  We believe God exist not because we can see Him but because we have plenty of evidence that He exists.  We have nature,  Roman 1: 20  states that for since the creation of the world God's invisible qualities - His eternal power and divine nature -have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made such as the sky, clouds, moon, sun, stars, trees, and flowers (just to name a few) so we're without excuse.  We just can not explain creation without acknowledging God as the Creator.  We also have God's word ( the bible ) which proclaims that God exists and there's plenty

Growing up in the south (Florida to be exact ) with fresh vegetable/fruit market and stands on almost every corner, fresh was never hard to come by. Although there were some can veggies stocked in the pantry they were there only if getting to the market to buy fresh wasn't possible.  I can recall right now the many of mornings and sometimes evening my granny and I would walk to the corner store and purchase fresh green beans and potatoes, return to the house and gather all the things we needed to prep the beans and head out to sit on her huge front porch to snap and wash the beans for cooking.  And even to this day I can still hear my granny say " Chile add a few iced potatoes, which were white potatoes ( although I use red potatoes now ) in those beans" as she showed me how to cook green beans. So here I'm sharing how I prep and cook this delicious green bean and potato dish that is great as a meal all by itself or a side dish with one of your
