If you have a son, I am sure you know how hard it can be to find cute designs for boys on Valentine’s Day. With all the pink and red that abounds, boys Valentine’s Day outfits can be nearly impossible to find!! I have listed quite a few new iron on transfer designs in my […]
Using iron on transfer is very different than screen printing. You cannot always get the same look, but the cost savings of being able to do it yourself is great. Screen printing is not a DIY project, but with a little practice you can get a screen printed look even with iron on transfers. Today […]
Whew …. it has been a while since I last posted. I have been a busy little bee though and posted many, many more designs in my Etsy shop. And even with all these new designs, I have a back log of about 50 items to still post!! So rather than chit chatting today, I […]
I have been having so much fun creating my applique patterns for my Etsy shop, but then one day I was thinking about how fun it would be to make some iron on transfers that people could print themselves. I know not everyone loves to applique, so this would be an easy way to make […]
Happy Halloween!! I hope everyone’s day is going very ghouly. Halloween was unfortunately postponed until Saturday in our town due to hurricane Sandy. Luckily we personally did not lose power or have anything bad happen to us because of the storm, but it did hit our town pretty hard. So instead of worrying about trick […]
So before I get to the patterns, I just wanted to share that I have officially learned how to bunny hop on a scooter! LOL We got our son a scooter not too long ago, and he has been having a blast trying to learn tricks on it. He even took it to the skate […]
Today I was able to make up 3 samples for patterns. I used a few different styles of applique for these. If these ever get made into a quilt, I will ultimately longarm them, so even the raw edge applique will be sewn down. But I still like the look of needleturn applique, so I […]
So I have been keeping up with Virtual Sew Day over at Quiltingboard.com, even though I haven’t been posting it so much here. Tomorrow is another one! Honestly I haven’t been doing much sewing lately (hence the quiet blog), but now that I am creating patterns, I am starting to feel the sewing bug again. […]
I has been a while since I last sewed!! Of course I always love sewing, but sometimes it gets put aside for a while in the name of other pursuits. But I recently slowly started back up again, and the first thing I started with was making some patterns. I am having fun creating these, […]
Welcome to my Virtual Sew Day! I had so much fun last month, and I hope others will be joining me too this time around! This is very laid back, no real rules, just loads of sewing and encouragement. Here are the guidelines: If you will be sewing today too, let me know. […]
I am so excited to be participating in the Blogger’s Quilt Festival again this year. Twice a year Amy, from Amy’s Creative Side, hosts a quilt festival to coincide with Quilt Market. It’s a wonderfully fun way to see all sorts of quilts across the blogsphere. Today I will be showing off one of my […]
