Some recent birthday shopping has been happening. My birthday was earlier this month and I was fortunate to receive some gift certificate bounty for Fatquartershop.com from various loving relatives. I put the gift certificates to good use (they are probably still smoking) and ordered two fat quarter collections. The one in the two photos above […]
Didn't we have great comments yesterday to my complaints of not feeling inspired to sew lately? My gosh, so many of you weighed in with ideas for projects that were exciting to you. The enthusiasm just leapt off the page. If that wasn't a shot in the arm, I don't know what would be! I […]
Well, this weekend I started something. And it's been awhile since that has happened. Honestly, I just have not been excited about any new projects lately. None of the latest collections, or patterns or color schemes have appealed to me much. I don't recall ever being in such a creative slump. All the designs by […]
I had my tiny little table topper quilted, and it came out so cute! It is the perfect size for a candle or vase of flowers. Still need to do the binding, but at least I have the fabric and know where to find it. I needed more fabric for my Sweet Escape blocks, and […]
Can you believe how gorgeous this fabric collection is? It is Spice It Up by Jo Morton, designed for Moda. The colors are my favorite warm autumn tones, and I can think of so many projects that this fabric would be perfect for. If you are a collector of Jo's fabrics, you know that her […]
I had to do it. This is the Swell Christmas kit by Urban Chiks. Do you know Moda is sold out of these already? Fatquartershop is as well and won't be getting anymore. I found one on Etsy for a great price and snapped it up. Whew. I would have been so disappointed to miss […]
Oh gosh, I may not be sewing up a storm, but some serious shopping has been going on. The gorgeous stack of blues in the photo above is from the Regency Blues by Christopher Wilson-Tate collection by Moda. Oh my goodness, is this fabric ever lovely. I have a plan to make a Laundry Basket […]
Just revel in these gorgeous fabrics for a moment. Ahhhh. Aren't they just the best? The darker fabrics are mostly Rachel Remembered by Betsy Chutchian, and the lighter ones are from my stash. I absolutely love those blues and golds. And of course the reds and browns. But those golds…. It's an old Bonnie Blue […]
I have been dreaming about spring table runners. I knew I didn't want anything too pastel, but definitely wanted fresh greens and maybe some lavender. No pattern or fabric collection stood out for me. That is until a couple of days ago when I was browsing through Instagram and saw the perfect spring table runner. […]
Yesterday was a great mail day. I had ordered several items and wouldn't you know, they all showed up on the same day. I am excited to share with you my new notebook (above), which I ordered from Erin Condren. This company is best known for their great planners/calendars, which I have enjoyed the […]
