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. I often find myself attracted to…
I made a bit more progress on my Fuzzy Duckling quilt over the weekend. I managed to make time to complete 4 more of the star blocks, giving me 5 finished. That’s exactly half of them! The only problem was it took me about 3 hours to cut and piece them all. I seem to…
I’ve felt like a slacker for the better part of a year, as I just haven’t felt the urge to do much sewing. But, thanks to baby Spot, I have a good reason to get back into my sewing room. Yes for baby quilts! I never seem to have a problem picking out quilt patterns…
I’ve been a big slacker about getting any sewing done lately, what with the new baby ducks, and my utter laziness. But I do still have something to share with you this week- a brand new (to me) sewing machine. This jewel was my birthday gift from my husband. It’s about a month after my…
It seems like the only quilting I get around to doing lately is making baby quilts for people. I don’t mind that at all, but I have been seriously slacking in the amount of time I put into my sewing projects lately. That’s why I’m glad that my sister requested a make a baby quilt…
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…
