Hey Sweeties,
The boys and I are going to be on St. Thomas for the majority of March, but I still want to do some sewing.
I have 5 projects that I have promised myself this month and then a few other random projects that I would love to make but they can wait.
Most of my plans for the month are utility, things to decorate the boys’ bedroom.
First things first, I want to make a traveler’s notebook for my Costume College projects. I am really inspired by this one from Pinterest. I want two rows of front pockets, one row side facing one row top facing, two back pockets, one side facing, one top facing and a reinforced decorative spine.
I’m decorating the boys’ bedroom in a superhero theme and I want to make some collapsible storage cubes to hold their toys and books. I’m inspired these available on Etsy, but I’ll be making my own. And, I want to make hanging clothes organizers for their closet.
In another post I mentioned I’m going to Costume College this year and I MUST start working on my costumes if I’m going to have any in time. I’m still not telling who or when but I do have to do the undergarments before I can start working on the gown for the Red Carpet.
I am kind of enamored by these linen-looking, tent dresses and I really want several. I’ve already bought some off-white gauze to make a wearable muslin. That fabric is so thin though that in order to wear it I will have to make a dress to wear under it. It’ll be two projects in one, the dress and the under-dress, designed to wear together but made separately.

And then, if my some miracle I get all of that done, I have a couple of yards of fabric to make clothes for the boys, I want t try making some felt busy books for Master and there is a super adorable Witch Tiana drawing from last October that I want to cosplay. Those are at the very bottom of my list though, only to be touched if everything else gets finished first.
Ok, so those are my sewing plans for the month. What are yours?
