Film In The Fridge

Be sure to check back tomorrow - I’ll be participating in the Sew Mama Sew Giveaway Day!
(Now I just have to figure out what to give away!)
until tomorrow…

New York City was great fun - lots to do and see, and even though we only saw a really, really small portion of it, we had a lot of fun!
Thank you to everyone who left such nice comments and congratulations. I enjoyed reading each and every one and I love that so many people [...]

Look at this - fabric that’s not orange or brown!

I wanted to see the new Amy Butler Daisy Chain line in person, so I bought several half yards a few weeks ago. They’re really quite bold, and I wasn’t sure what I’d use them for. They’ve been sitting in a stack on the floor of [...]

Sea Flower Stripes!

Since I still haven’t practiced any free motion quilting, I opted to quilt this one following the seams of the zig zags. I sewed a zig zag on either side of each seam and it created a [...]

This past weekend we headed down to Boston for my best friend’s wedding. It was beautiful, and a lot of fun. We then had a chance to go out to the Cape for a couple days with my college roommate. I hadn’t seen her in ages (I can’t even remember the last time, so it [...]
