Working on sewing up my fabric stash, learning watercolour, trying to bike more, figure out my next adventure, raise a few kids with my husband, trying to do my part for the environment and hopefully make less typos when posting. 🍁
Final plan that meets fabric limitations… now to double check pieces and cut out. #sewingsky #sewing

Trying to summon the bravery required to cut out all the pieces and hope I haven’t made any calculation errors and that the design will look OK. Was short on fabric for my preferred design and have *just* enough for an alternate. Off to draw it out and hope. #jalie2108 #jalie2109

Love to my local library. Did you know you can request books for them to order? And mine puts it on hold for me to get to be the first to take it out. They’ve said yes to most of what I’ve requested!

And the reason why I’ve put off starting the snow pants (besides it being a challenging project?)
Obsession with this…
Will I finish for holiday parties???

Finished the actual knitting awhile back but finally got some buttons on this sweater. Fully recycled the wool from my first sweater I ever made that never fit great so nice to have one I can wear again.
Just need to block out the ribbing a bit more. #firesidecardigan #upcycle #knitting

And the project that’s currently on hold while I deal with my obsession with knitting a #holidaydoodlesweater with holiday doodles rather than just my left overs. See you in December or January.

And I started the #holidaydoodlesweater and now I’m debating if I frog the red to make it a white background snowflake or just keep going and hope it looks great as stripes. #doodleknitting #knitting #knittingsky

Now that diplomas have been cancelled, imagine if all AB high school students went on strike? I’ve seen that impact before in Quebec and the government did end up reversing some of the cuts planned because the of the movement. The power that would have! Nearly impossible logistics. #teacherstrike

And I’ve accepted that sometimes online colour matching between stores is a fail… blue I knew wasn’t a perfect match but bought anyways, attempted the red as contrast but way to bright… got the neutral in person today and will use that. Good thing I have lots of people in my life to sew up the rest.

I’ve committed to a snow suit by buying all the materials (I really hope the red I ordered coordinates!) and now to figure out the design. Which is your favourite? #jaliepatterns #jalie2109 #jalie2108 #sewingsky

Loving how this came out. Got the request to make a Marshmello ( a popular DJ) costume for my 8 year old. Bought a couple of cricut designs and sewed them up today. It’s a bit big, but I’m hoping he’ll wear this beyond Halloween. It is so versatile. #jalie3355 #jaliepatterns #sewingsky

Why I love tracing patterns onto painting drop cloth… can ensure good pattern placement for panels and patterns. #sewingtips #sewingsky

#jalienico made for number 3 who is currently obsessed with Marshmellow and dressing up as him for Halloween. Pants also #jaliepatterns #jalie3355 made a few years ago and now patched at the knee. Yeah for growing room. Fabric from #loiseaufabrics

First time sewing up #jalie3352 and it is so quick and cute. And my daughter seemed pretty excited to have matching tops. #jaliepatterns #sewing

Hospital visits turn out to be good for knitting but really suck for everything else. So incredibly grateful to the amazing team at the #stollerychildrenshospital they made the scary situation manageable. Fortunately home again and recovery is going well. #showyourknits #doodleknits

Back to debating with myself if I frog or finish? Feel I screwed up with the order of some of the doodles and with some practice could make it better… would you? #knitsky

one of my goals has been to do a bit of a watercolour travel journal. Mostly finished this painting of a chalet we rented for a few days while waiting for our flight home. Need to look at it again to decide if fully finished. #watercolorpainting

Been awhile since I did any #watercolour I keep have dreams of doing a travel watercolour journal. Realize you need to just start painting « in the wild » to build up the skills. And a nice way to pass the time at the park while the kid plays.
