Making
Seriously guys, I have SEW many sewing machines! (I’d tell you that I’m sorry for the pun, but I’m not.) I currently have no less than 6 sewing machines in my house. And in the last month I’ve had at least 3 offers from people wanting to give me their vintage machines. Unfortunately, what with…

The Houseful of Nicholes is talking about 1st sewing projects on Thread Filled Thursdays this week, so I wanted to go back and share the first couple of sewing projects I shared on the blog. They were both part of Craft Month 2011, where I crazily decided that I would do a new craft project…

Though it’s something I haven’t had much time for with the new baby, I love making quilts. I think it’s the concept of taking a stack of fabrics that anyone could have and making something completely my own. My design process usually starts with a specific fabric or concept.

It’s been ages since I’ve written up a WIP Wednesday post. And that’s mainly because I haven’t had any progress to share, but with some recent work to my sewing space (more on that later), I’ve managed to get some work done over the last few weeks. I made up a baby quilt for a…

My birthday is coming up in a couple of weeks, so I’ve been giving some thought to things I might like to have for my birthday. In case you missed it, we recently bought a new house, so a lot of these things will be linked to that. Buying a house can be a long,…

A while back, I saw a wreath on Create Craft Love that I absolutely adored. It was a fun spring wreath made from a garden hose. So, I thought I would give making one of these a try. Of course, I managed not to rememeber to print off a list of the things I needed…
