That’s me right now – far too many projects I am trying to get done before Christmas and some of them are going to have to wait – including the LTTS puppet theatre I had planned for my toddler. Oh well – I will get her something small for under the tree and sew it up after the holidays and she won’t even know ;-). I won’t be able to get away with…[Read more]

My sewing machine’s on the fritz
I want to smash it to bits

I printed it off and am checking off all the patterns I have (and the one I just picked up in the awesome holiday sale!) :-). I did notice that the forest path cape was labeled as the firefly jacket. But this is a great checklist, thanks Kim!

Basements really do cramp your sewing, don’t they? I can’t sew a seam and watch my kids. I can’t sew and chat. I can’t go, “oooh look honey, how good this is turning out.” (Although come to think of it, I get the same response to the empty basement that I do from my husband.– hahahah). Anti social, really. I do sew less in the basement.…[Read more]

There once was a quilter named Lizzy
But quilting was making her dizzy
So she looked for a dress
She could sew to impress
But the prints she had all were too busy

Getting back into the sewing groove finally, though it’s hard to force myself down into the basement to do so (no windows there). I just finished up the birthday princess dress marathon. Sadly, I have really grown to despise sewing princess dresses.

I have had a Playtime dress cut out for older DD for ages but it sits, unseen. Got 90 percent…[Read more]

Since we’ve moved, I’m in the basement (windowless, sob) too, Cybele. I find that I sew much less 🙁 Part of it is that I do have a great deal less time to sew than I used to, and part of it is that I hate being in a windowless space. I have grand plans to hang some tapestries on the walls and decorate the exposed beam ceiling with twinkle…[Read more]

That is simply lovely!

Bumped for Margery.

Hi Margery, I had to giggle at your DUI shopping, I have too stated, in the past, wine/internet=no!

I am no techno guru but creating an account means you can keep track of your PDF purchases, I am not sure about paper ones.
Someone more tech savvy will jump in, I am sure.

There are printable lists available (I will hunt out the link for you)…[Read more]

Thank you!
How lovely. 🙂

While back I got demoted from DR to basement. I started eeking myself back up to DR. Oh I will just be up here for this project. Oh I am starting a new one. Oh I am mid project. LOL

Basement is bad for several reasons: light, temperature, and dirt.

For temp, we have a space heater for my toes.

For light, I have overhead fluro and an…[Read more]

I used to clutch my pearls at the thought of matching but I’ve completely changed my tune, match the hell out of it.

I just recently ordered from Rockywoods and loved them, lucky you!
