Go Pack Go! Sara at RP Custom Fabrics has a new pre-order up with tartan plaids in team colors. How awesome is that?? I love this idea and had to make up a top for me in the Green, Gold and White Tartan. I didn’t have any matching green, so I went to the closet […]
I recently became a Sewing Portfolio’s Ambassador, who partners with Michael Miller Fabrics. As part of promoting the website and group, we received 3 yards of Michael Miller Fabrics current collections. These fabrics are from the Swirly Girls line. I knew that these fabrics would be destined for some girls at the domestic abuse shelter […]

The softball season closed out for the girls with a Nationals tournament. These tournaments are more like a regional tournament, where some do come from states away. Fortunately for us, it was just a half hour away. During their first game of pool play, the teams exchange gifts. I made a few things for the […]
Leather tassels on purses can be a great accent. They can go on the zipper, or just hang off the handle. I also use these for my keys. I tend to have large purses, and it is much easier to find my keys when it is attached to a bit of fringe. This is how […]
This print is part of the RP Custom Fabrics – Fun Rounds pre-order. The image is of a sunset skyline in a circular format. Really pretty! (click on picture to go to the pre-order for it) I received a few of the smaller round panels, and two that were the same size. I think they […]
