HaPpY EaStEr!!

                                              Happy Easter everybody!!



Yeah Spring!!!

I just love Spring!
Every thing is fresh and new.
The birds are singing and the fields are green and the flowers blooming.
I love to do so many things....
My garden is calling and I just have a bit of time for sewing.


This is a tote that I made. It is an Amy Butler pattern called field tote. I got to enjoy sew many features on my sewing machine. The piping foot was tremendous! I also used my edge stitch foot for the perfect even top stitch. Having the right tools helps sew much!

I had left over fabric so I made me one of my most handy items... a shower wrap.
We can not just leave it plain so I used all the scraps I had left from the bag and put them on my wrap.

This is going to be a class next quarter because its fun, quick and easy, Yipee!

More Creating Fun!

First I took a plain scarf...

Then I tore strips of fabric...

sewed them into flowers...

I got sidetracked and made this little muslin flower, anyways...

Then sew them on where you like them!

Come and join our embellishment class and do this with us!

This is my best buddy Raley she is never far from my side. She is my sewing partner.

Greetings!!! Better Yet Greeting Cards!!!

Ok so am I the only one who could open a scrapbooking shop of their own. I have so many tidbits that I have collected over the years and I still have 26 years worth of pictures to scrapbook.

This bugged me so last weekend I decided to make my own greeting cards with the sewing machine, fabrics(plenty of that sitting in my shelves) and the scrapbooking supplies that I have on hand. Oh my! Did I open a new can of worms. I loved every creative moment! It was so great creating a card specifically for a special someone.

I even tried some freemotion work on some of them.

This will be a class that we offer soon. Watch for it!
