About


This blog is my work in progress!! As well as I am work in progress!!


I created this blog because I wanted a place that I can showcase my projects, ideas, thoughts and other parts of my life that make me who I am!!


I am in no way an expert or even close to being an intermediate sewer / seamstress but I am trying my best and that's what matters to me.  Hey....I am self-teaching so there is bound to be faux pas!!  I just have to work through them and learn from them.


I am a mother of a beautiful pre-teen girl who is an amazing tri-athlete and loves to smile.  And a handsome little boy who is smart as a whip and is a comedian in the making. 


I work full-time in the medical field as well as play softball and ride my bike 12-miles every other day (weather permitting)!  I also love to develop black and white film and pictures in my pseudo darkroom which is my bathroom after hours so no one distracts me.  (Mom I need to pee)


All my work spaces whether I am sewing or in my darkroom need to be clean and organized.  I also have to have music playing in the background.  It can't be too loud or make me dance to much or I won't comprehend the pattern I am reading or remember my time limits.


I believe in smiling until your cheeks hurt and laughing until you pee!! :)

DIY -- Hello Kitty Scrub Top -- OOTD

DIY - Hello Kitty Scrub Top What I Wore Today  Fabric from Joann Fabrics  I'm not sure if you can buy this particular print online, but I did see it in a few of their retail stores.  I used Wrights Extra Wide Double Fold Bias Tape accent the pockets and around the top.  If you haven't read my About Me page yet, I state that I work full-time in the medical field.  I don't have to wear scrubs all the time, but when I want to be comfortable it's my go to option!!  I was tired of seeing the same scrub tops I was wearing that day on other co-workers in the hospital and smiling at each other because we didn't know what else to say. I felt like I was in People Magazine on the "Who Wore It Better" page. So I decided to start making my own tops!!  This is the 2nd scrub top that I have ever made.  The first one I made ended up being a complete bust (My Failure) and I never took a pic of it.  I definitely learned for my mistakes (M...

Scrub - A - Dub Sunday!! DIY - Scrub Tops

DIY - Scrub Sunday!! I buckled down and add four more scrub tops to my work wardrobe.  I did this really for two reasons. 1) I like how easy and fast it is for me at this moment, very calming and non-stressful sewing! 2) I enjoy the compliments I get from my co-worker for having original scrub tops! If you have not read my Fabric Haul 2 post, please check it out.  There you will find a description of all the fabric I used for these scrub tops.   Fabric Haul 2 My son decided that he wanted to draw all over my pocket template. To learn more about the Ideal Seam Guide that I use while sewing, check out my   Tool I Can't Live Without Post It seemed easier for me to just cut all the fabric out and just sew everything at once. The only thing that was time consuming on these scrubs was changing the thread to match the color of the bias tape being used. The finished products!! So happy!! Can't wa...

Website Launch and New Blog

My New Website and New Blog www.SilverliningsOriginals.biz www.SilverliningsOriginals.biz/blog I have finally chosen a new place to start the second part of my journey in sewing. I am now part of the Wix family. Blogger has been so good to me and it's hard to say goodbye.  I won't completely disable this blog because I know I still have frequent visitors. I have grown and changed and with that my content has changed. Since starting this blog a lot of things have happened on my sewing journey.  I am now running a small business that seems to be getting busier and busier everyday.  With that a new website and new blog had to be started. I hope you continue to follow my journey on the new website and blog.  You should also subscribe to be privy to exclusive content.
