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. 🍁
Starting to look like a sweater… #holidaydoodlesweater #knitting #showyourknits

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.

Need to make a fall and winter version next.

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

#jalienico with extra growing room as this kid is obsessed with pandas so wanted to ensure it has extra growing room. #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

Oh I have one to add. And it’s fall themed. #doodleknits #showmeyourknits #Doodlehat

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.

@grey_owl_knits chart is completed for this sock. I really need to make better notes on the top up sock as all my socks are a smidge big and I need to be brave enough to go a little smaller. It fits decently. And I’m liking how it’s coming together. #knitting #sockknitting #knittingsky

#jalieroxanne shorts for my daughter. Left off the inseam pockets because I was feeling lazy. But love how these turned out. I added a bit of length the elastic and now they are smidge big. Growing room hopefully. #jaliepatterns #sewing #sewingforgirls #garmentsewing #sewingsky

#jalienico is always perfect. Panda shirt for my panda obsessed kid. Love being able to make clothes that fit (with a tiny bit of growing room) for my slim kids. #jaliepatterns #jalielife #garmentsewing #sewingforboys #sewingsky

@greyowlknits.bsky.social canadiana sweater pattern came out just as I was attempting to add some maple leaves to my Canadian pride socks. Using her charts and loving it so far. #knitting #sockknitting #greyowlknits

Tubing down the pembina river today. And that was with applying sunscreen 2x!!

Brought some helpers to campaign for one of our favourite people! And boy did they run hard and fast! They did all the houses it looks like I skipped! May have incentivized the kids with some slushies. #teamrutherford #erinforanirniq #yegcityhall #yegcitycouncil @erinrutherford.bsky.social
