I've been working this week and don't have a current sewing related project to share, so I thought I would go back in time to May 2010 and share what was going on then. Above, you see one of my all time favorite photos of Ozzie. I can say that he is slightly less pesky […]
How cute is this fabric line and pattern? It all went together pretty quickly, but as you can see, I still need to sew the blocks together. Pattern is a Little Bites by Miss Rosie's Quilt Company, and the fabric is High Street by Lily Ashbury. I totally copied one of the versions of the […]
Champagne and a dancing child. It doesn't get much better than this! My weekend was lovely, and I sure hope yours was as well. We had such a nice celebration on Saturday. Several readers have inquired as to the nature of the happy occasion. Irish wedding bells? No, not that. My sister had been laid […]
I just could not help myself. With all the new Miss Rosie Little Bites patterns just released and the pile up of newly ordered charm packs coming to the door, I just had to start a new project. The pattern I am using is Trace and the fabric collection is High Street by Lily Ashbury […]
I am so sorry not to have been able to respond to your comments this week. That is the whole point and fun of blogging as far as I am concerned. Ever since Typepad was attacked again on Monday, I am not getting your comments to go to my email so I can respond. Such […]
For those of you who couldn't see my post from yesterday or leave comments, it was due to a major Typepad issue. Again. They were down all day long. Ever since they were hacked last month it has been one thing after another. I had better type this and get it posted before it goes […]
Over the weekend I downloaded four new mini patterns from Fig Tree Designs. One is a mini version of the pear quilt I have been working on. In addition, I got a mini pattern of sewing machines, a flower and cherries. Each one is cute as can be and is teeny tiny (20 to […]
Back in the day, I used to sew all my own clothes. I made just about everything except underwear. I even tried to make a bikini a couple of times. (Nothing I could actually wear in public however–my estimate of my pattern size was way off in the swim suit category anyway). At one […]
Well, this isn't actually my closet, but I did spend all day yesterday organizing my closet for the spring/summer season. The funny thing about any closet organizing photos you find on the internet, is that whose ever closet it is, it only seems to have maybe 24 clothing items. That definitely is not the case […]
Isn't that pretty? The best $9 I ever spent. I get these gorgeous orchids at my local Savemart, and for $9 they give me six weeks of pretty indoor blooms. Sometimes more. Living plants are such a treat to have inside, and anything with a spot of color is a bonus. I haven't been doing […]
