FABRIC MONDAY

Monday is all about Fabric – #15 – Fabrics I want

It’s “fabric Monday”.  And I LOVE discussing fabric with you.  It’s made Monday’s SO much better just having to take pictures of sweet little fabric bundles.  I really enjoy that. But you know I’m on a fabric lockdown.  Well, except for last week, and shhh…maybe next week.  This week: fabric lock down!  I’m not very…

Monday is all about fabric – #14 – Liberty Society May

You might have noticed that I didn’t post anything last week.  I was on an adventure and took some time off (more later). When I did arrive home once more this bundle was waiting on me.  I had spent a week being surrounded by snow capped mountains and came home to eighty degrees + humidity…

Learning English Paper Piecing

I mentioned this project at the beginning of the month. It’s the #EPPparty hosted by Pat Bravo and Mister Domestic. And yes, you might have noticed if you are joining or watching this sew along unfold that I am already behind.  But I was really just wanting to work with the shapes that I don’t…
