I had another set of pillows on my “to do” list, and that was for our sectional. It kind of needs pillows to lean against and all the pillows we have are small. I made them several years ago. I decided to design a pattern for them, and ended up making 4 different patterns. One […]
I am trying to stay on task, so actually have my February month in review done. Had a job interview…it went well, I think. Then they made me take some tests, and they really didn’t go well. It has been YEARS since I have completed anything like that, so I just didn’t get through […]
I have a list of things I have wanted to get sewn up over the time I am on hiatus from working (i.e. unemployed). One thing on the list was some big pillows for the 1.5 chair in the basement by the fire. It is a deep chair and really needs to have some pillows. […]
In my never ending curiosity to see what I can put my artwork onto, I came across inkbox on Instagram. Having several of my designs that would lend themselves to it, I decided to give it a go! I decided to do my wolf skull tattoo, and thought it would work without editing. It turns […]
As it was sooooo hard to keep up with my weekly updates, I decided to opt for an easier to handle monthly update. I had some words picked out for 2019 to focus on: Satisfied – This relates to my work life. I want to have a new job that I will be satisfied with […]
Well, its been terribly cold here in the great North. We had the coldest temperatures and wind chills in 25 years, so schools and businesses were closed. We all just hibernated and stayed inside. I sewed, of course! I received a strike-off from Sugar Ink to sew up for their latest round based on the […]
The 52 Week Sewing Challenge for this week was Sew Something Red. I already sewed up some underwear with some red in the fabric, but I wanted to do this, as well. I have seen some Assassin’s Creed inspired hoodies on Pinterest with the red and black colors in them, and thought they looked cool. […]
For the 52 Week Sewing Challenge – Week 3, the challenge was to sew a pattern you owned but had not sewn up yet. I had downloaded the free Bell Town Vest from Straight Stitch Designs at least a year ago. It was also the pattern I had planned to use for my furry vest […]
I made some more underwear, and took out pretty much all of my scraps to try to find my little gems hidden away. My sewing room was a mess. I was running out my lace elastic, so I had to make do. I cut some of my thicker lace down the middle for some of […]
I know…so exciting! I am like most people, I think, where underwear is the last thing you think about replacing…and the most often worn. I have had the same batch I bought from Victoria’s Secret at least 8 years ago, and they were in not great shape. Add to the fact that my butt is […]
