Coming up… Christmas in July!
So very little sewing happening around here, because I’ve been drawing, drawing, drawing… and writing patterns.
Christmas is right around the corner!
I don’t know about you, but Christmas is certainly going to be a lot different for me and my family this year.

Hearts, hearts, hearts!
I am most certainly in the mood and ready for Valentine’s Day! It is right around the corner, so I’ve pulled out some of my favorite Valentine’s Day items, and this year have been working on a new project to celebrate the day.

Right around the corner
Mid-year, that is. As usual, time flies when you’re having fun, and this year has been no exception. In just a few days, July will be rolling in.

Mini sewing circle

I am a self-learner. I taught myself to sew and to quilt. And I taught myself how to draw. I am learning how to dye my own fabrics and am dabbling with mixed media.
