Read MoreWith all the weather changes this Autumn, sniffles and coughs are bound to come our way! One way I curbed my kids from spreading their germs to everyone in the house (and outsiders!) was to make a sick mask that aided us from those nasty colds! And I gotta say, it did help. It does not replace coughing into your elbows, but it does help contain the amount of spreading.
Now these aren’t just for flu season, these are GREAT for costumes and Halloween too! I drafted a FREE PDF pattern for little kids, big kids, and older kids/ adults so that everyone is covered.
Pun intended 😉

It’s the 25th!!! So you know what that means: SEW GEEKY! This month’s theme is Epic Fantasy inspired. Think Lord of the Rings, Game of Thrones, or really anything that would conjure up visions of enchantment.
Read MoreI told myself that I wouldn’t go over the top; that I want to keep Sew Geeky a little more casual so that I don’t burn myself out trying to outdo myself every month. It’s exhausting! It also makes me struggle to make other things; the essential things. BUT STUDIO GHIBLI?! I could not go small. I just couldn’t! Ugh, I am my own worst enemy, I know! Narrowing it down was incredibly hard. I have the urge to STUDIO GHIBLI ALL THE THINGS!
Read MoreGood morning to you! ^_^ It’s time for Sew Geeky’s newest episode: Marvel vs DC! We didn’t want to do just Superheroes. We wanted to spice it up a bit, so we did a Marvel vs Detective Comics (aka DC) theme! So I decided to go with a hero vs villain approach for my outfits. I give you retro Catwoman and chibi Loki!
Read MoreHello my lovelies! I'm over at Rae Gun Ramblings for her Happy Harry Potter series today showing off my chibi Bellatrix Lestrange dress!
Read MoreThis is me.
In a nutshell, my whole life I've been a cartoon addict. No lie. I recorded my faves on VHS when I was a teenager and I have never really stopped watching them!
But as you get older you learn to appreciate new things and I fell, similar to Alice, down the rabbit hole, into the world of anime.

So who here is a former angsty teenager from the 90s? I was! I was the only kid in school wearing patent leather pants in every color and donning a choker necklace made out of safety pins and I listened to punk and ska music and loved every minute of it! The grown up Kat loves those things still, but I've evolved since then. But ain't nostalgia grand! Well, TANK GiRL is like a time capsule for me of my high school days (even though TANK GiRL came out just before I started high school). The thing about TANK GiRL is that she's a bad girl. She smokes, she loves guns and ahem her tank and she dresses far on the risque side of things. Being that I'm a mom and am not into any of those things, I made my look and accessories more of a TANK GiRL: the Mom.

One of my very very best friends and fellow blogger, Sarah of EmmyLouBeeDoo, has literally just released her latest PDF pattern: {affiliate link} The Shandiin Tank and Tunic! So I decided to make a Star Wars version! Check it out!
Read MoreI decided to look to two of my favorite things: my bloggy life partner: Max-California and Philly indie rock bands. Being this is a sewing blog, a lot of you probably know about Vincent, Max's adorable little boy and muse. But- I'll bet a lot of my readers do not know about Man Man. Guys, Man Man is the BEST. Want to know what they sound like? Click on the song below! Black Mission Goggles is my favorite but it's hard to pick one song when they are so bad ass!
Read MoreWe love all things anime and yes that includes Pokemon! Get ready for a sweet Girafarig inspired dress! YEAH! Earlier this month, someone turned 6! It has been a whirlwind of a month, what with birthdays x 2, visitors, sewing (per the usual), starting kindergarten, baby announcements, appointments galore... my head is still spinning! But don't worry: I'm passed my nausea-phase so I'll be fine 😁
Read MoreToday is Throw Down Day between me and a couple of kick ass ladies: Jessica and Alida. You might have heard of them if you have ever gone on to this thing called "the internet." These ladies and I are about to get all Mortal Kombat, Sewing Style up in this piece sewing the Owl Backpack by the Sewing Loft!
