I am slowly trying to get back into the swing of things and I blogged. I am wondering do people even read blogs anymore? Am I wasting my time? If not, what types of posts do you like? I am thinking of going back to blogging like I did when I first started, some inspirational posts, some of my favourite brands and some sewing too. Am I crazy? What say you?

In case you didn't believe me when I said my son outgrew all his clothes! 😳Thanks for all the help in my last post. I'm still undecided with what to do but I should have something sewn up soon. 😊#growingspurt#lifewithmisterm#shamoftheperfect

My son went from wearing a size 4/6 to size 11 overnight! All his pants & sleeves are too short! We filled 2 garbage bags with clothing he had been wearing for years. So I kind of have no choice to get my sewjo and creative juices flowing; which have disappeared in the last 3/4 months in case you were wondering where I had disappeared too! The real reason I am posting this, is that I need your help ( clearly i have forgotten everything) the main fabric is this lion fleece( not to thick) and I am not sure if this thin French terry will be to flimsy for the sleeve and "rib" for the collar, hem and cuffs. Also it has no stretch! Umm maybe I could interface it or should I just use some other fleece I have and not take a chance. Help please!

Hello! It's been a while. I hope to be back real soon, in the mean time I am sharing this adorable tip top dress by the super talented and inspirational @kneesocksandgoldilocks 🐰💕 I hope you are all having a wonderful Easter. #tiptopdress #petitapetitpatterns #sewingforkids

My hacked version of the Waterfall Raglan by @chalkandnotch is on the blog! [ link in comments] I ❤️ my new dress! #makeitminetour#chalkandnotchpatterns#waterfallraglan

Editing photos for tomorrow's post for the #makeitminetour Anyone else have a hard time selecting photos for blogposts? #soundecided #takingforever #help!

Hello Tip Top lovers 💕 I will be adding some new sleeve options to the pattern and was wondering if you had any requests or suggestions? Thanks 😀This cute summery version is by @e_shimokawa ✨ #tiptopdress#petitapetitpatterns#pdfsewingpattern#indiepatterns#sewingforkids#sewcialists

MissE then (2) and now (7). I am playing along with @sew_chibi and her #makerskidsthenandnow . This is not the first thing I made my daughter, but it was the first time I showed her face on my blog back in 2012. I also think this is when I really started to get to know a lot of you and how amazing this sewing community is. Thanks for the fun prompt Kat!

Photoshoot ready for @chalkandnotch 's Make it Mine blog tour. Come join the fun, there is link party and giveaway. #makeitminetour#waterfallraglan#pdfsewingpattern#sewingmywardrobe #indiepatterns#isew#sewcialists#sewblueandwhite

I promise this is the last photo of me for a while!
This my #projectsewit for the month of January. A hacked Waterfall Raglan by @chalkandnotch 👌🏼I made the hem high low and added a split cuffed hem. I made the sleeve and collar wider too. The fabric is this cool loopy jersey weird knit that I got at my local fabric shop. Check out the Chalk and Notch's account for a fun sewalong, blog tour and giveaway! #waterfallraglan#indiesewing#indiepatterns#sewingmywardrobe#pdfsewingpattern#

I love my Waterfall raglan by @chalkandnotch 💃🏻I made it with a thin wool jersey blend and it's simply the best. I cannot tell you how many times I have worn it in the last 2 months 🙊#waterfallraglan#chalkandnotchpatterns#projectsewit

Proof I am still alive! Here is a photo I took today of a shirt I made in September! 🐛🐞🐝So sorry I have been mia- I've been in a creative funk and avoiding social media for the most part. Do you ever get this way? I did make an effort and made myself a sweater for #projectsewit2017 and i promise to post that tomorrow.
If you are curious, I got the fabric @fabricdotcom - it's called Alexander Henry June Bug Tropical Types Single Border Natural/Peach

Sorry I've been mia. I took some time off to spend it with these 👆🏼three and promised to not to work and limit my time online. It's back to normal tomorrow!

Aren't these polka dots the sweetest? Thanks @3_meisjes_op_het_strand 💙What are you all working on this January? 😊

I did this a couple of weeks ago and got Strength. Then the gif popped back in my feed again yesterday and I tried it again and got the same thing. So I got skeptical and tried it not once but three more times and got strength again and finally infinite pizza🍕I am not sure what the universe is trying to tell me, but I guess strength is something good to have! Wishing you all a Happy New Year full of strength as well.

Love the absolute joy on this cutie's face 😍 And those stripes!!! Thank you, Nina @fliegfederfrei 💙💙💙 #isewfridaydresses #petitapetitpatterns #handmadekidsclothes #sewingforgirls #sewingforkids #kidsfashion

I am having a [crazy] sale on my sewing patterns @petitapetitblog and while I was looking for photos to showcase some of the patterns I have made, I came across this one, circa June 2015. She has been giving attitude since 2009 and today was no exception! 🙄#breatheinbreatheout#moroccopants#petitapetitpatterns#pdfpatterns#isew#sewingforkids#lifewithmisse

Utah-Salt Lake City friends, who is free Monday evening? I am headed your way but only for 2.5 days and for 2 of those days I'll be busy learning from the fab @yanpalmer #52reflections#movingtrain#jaspertovancouver#travelingwithkids#illuminateclasses#rdmfamilyonholiday #molgetin52#getin52#visitcanada#🇨🇦#theunspokenperspectivesproject

Upper Grassi Lakes (2/2) We taught the kids how to skip rocks and it kept busy everywhere we went. We also tried to get to the top of that mountain but after 40 minutes of uphill hiking and people telling us we weren't even half way, we turned back. The kids were so relieved 😳 I was pretty proud we even tried. #grassilakes#canmorealberta#explorecanada#explorealberta#shamoftheperfect#illuminateclasses#documentyourdays#🇨🇦

Upper Grassi Lake (1/2) This small lake at the top of the mountains was one of our favourite spots. We would have never checked it out had I not booked a hotel that was totally out of the way (unintentionally 😬) The positive part is that we discovered Kananaskis Country and the beauty it has to offer. #kananaskiscountry#explorecanada#🇨🇦#canoncanada150#explorealberta#illuminateclasses#definethejourney#shamoftheperfect#documentyourdays

I haven't shared the @shamoftheperfect weekly post in a while, come and see what you've been missing (link in the Sham's IG bio).... Here is is MisterM packing for our trip out west. #shamoftheperfect#lifewithmisterm#familyphotojournalism#montrealphotographer#documentaryfamilyphotography

This was taken at Lake Louise... I had such a hard time taking photos there, not only was it swamped with tourists (such as us) but I just wasn't able to capture it's beauty as I saw or felt it. This is one of my favourite of the bunch. P.S. When they recommend you go before 10am or 7pm in the summertime, they aren't kidding. I took this around 9pm when almost everyone was gone. #banffnationalpark#lakelouise#explorealberta#explorecanada#🏞#🏃🏽#🇨🇦#canada150#canoncanada150#illuminateclasses#these👫#rdmfamilyonholiday#yourshotphotographer

On our flight to Calgary... MisterM made sure to study the safety card carefully and ask me a million questions about what to do if ever something went wrong.😳 His sticker #flyingisfun says it all, right? 😜And Sorry I've been MIA.I am back from a 2 week vacation and had lots of issues with my camera, so I didn't end up sharing anything. Despite the issues I managed to take over 2500 and countless videos that I now need to go through. I'll be sharing some here but probably will end up blogging them or putting them on Flickr. #rdmfamilyonholiday #rdmfamily #lifewithmister#westjet#shamoftheperfect#documentyourdays#dfpcommunity#illuminateclasses#definethejourney#familyphotojournalism#documentaryfamilyphotography#montrealphotographer

These two! Here is another photo that didn't make my 50 nuances d'été blog post. I hesitated, but ended liking the bokeh water drops in the other photo more than my daughter being silly and trying to lick her brother.

Did you catch this week's @shamoftheperfect post yet? You can see my little monkey doing her favorite thing at the playground in bigger and at better resolution. Lucky her she didn't get my weak arm genes, only my ugly feet and unibrow ones. 😂 #shamoftheperfect#strongisthenewpretty#playgroundaroundthecorner #documentyourdays #documentaryfamilyphotography #familyphotography #montrealfamilyphotographer#dfpcommunity #familyphotojournalism #illuminateclasses #definethejourney #childhoodunplugged#candidchildhood #mtlstories

This week was packed with so many different activities, including my cousins' wedding at this wonderful venue. I didn't have much time to post here, but my favorite 4 photos of the week are up on the blog as part of the 50 nuances d'été blog circle, if you care to see(link 👆🏼) #50nuancesdete #vdmariage2017 #these👫#zarakids #hmkids #dressedtoimpress #shamoftheperfect#illuminateclasses #defineyourjourney #documentyourdays#quebecwedding

Need some help with Pinterest? I wrote an article to get you started. The info is just as good for any business not just photography. Check out the @shamoftheperfect bio for the link. Let me know if you have any more questions, I am always happy to help!
P.S. You really need to get pining if you own a business or blog, it will do wonders for your SEO. 😊 #pinterestsuccess#pinterestguide#pinterestforphotographers#photographytutorial#shamoftheperfect#photographyhelp#businessforphotographers#notsponsored

A few fellow Québécois photographers and I have started a summer blog circle called 50 Nuances D'été (50 Shades of summer) and every week we will be sharing 4 of our favourite photos (this one is not really part of it). You can come and follow along and see what summer is all about here in Quebec. The first week is up and I have a little bit of theme going. Let's see if I can keep that going too.

Super proud of MisterM, he was stellar not only in his class play but at his piano recital too (I will add a video today in my stories). #lifewithmisterm #schoolplay #illuminateclasses#definethejourney#shamoftheperfect#familyphotojournalism#documentyourdays#dfpcommunity#documentaryfamilyphotography

What is the best thing about your brother? - His slimy kisses 😘
What is the best thing about your sister? - She makes me laugh 😂
But it's the sweet little gestures between the two that get me every time. I hope they stay best friends forever.

One thing I want to work on and shoot more of this year is street photography. It happens to be one of my favourite types of photography but so many things stop me from doing it. I am determined to get past all my fears and just do it already.
Here is a photo I took a couple of years ago that I never shared here. I am hoping to win that cool wrist strap @jennifertonettispellman_street is giving away. Go have a look at her street work, it always has me inspired. And here is to hoping @illuminateclasses will offer a street photography class soon! #jtsstrapgiveaway#streetphotography#documentaryphotography#familyphotojournalism#shamoftheperfect#illuminateclasses#womeninstreet

"A person who never made a mistake never tried anything new."- Albert Einstein
There is a new @shamoftheperfect collective blogpost and it looks like I am back on Instagram! I'll be back to reply to all your lovely comments on my last post tomorrow. #shamoftheperfect #lifewithmisse #mtlmoments #lestersdiner #documentyourdays #dfpcommunity#documentaryphotography#familyphotography#familyphotojournalism#illuminateclasses#definethejourney

I am not sure if I should be jumping for joy or crying, but I just got rid of 11 000 ghost followers on Instagram!😳 And I could keep going but this is as much as my ego can handle for now. It all started when I went down the comparing trap and felt terrible about how low my engagement was on IG compared to the amount of followers i had. It made me feel poorly about what I was sharing here. So I got a third party app and realized most of my followers were either inactive or had never liked or commented on any of my posts. I never realized how many of these people there were. I never used apps or bots to get these followers- you see a couple of years ago Instagram suggest my account as one to follow and my account almost tripled overnight. What good is that if they aren't going to be a part of the IG community! Ugh. In the middle of this clean up I got shadow banned by IG and so now even less people have been seeing my posts, even my active followers. As I am trying to make things better, it would seem they are only getting worse. Anyways, I've decided to take a break on social media for the next few weeks. I'll be checking once a while but if it's urgent send me an email. And a huge thanks to all of you who have stuck around and gave me a like here and there over the years. I really appreciate it. 💕 #mytrampolinestory #lifewithmisse#shamoftheperfect#illuminateclasses

Can't wait for these two to get home, so I can squeeze them a little harder. My mama heart aches today. Sending 💕to all the families in Manchester.
