Sewing Room Storage | Simple + Creative Solutions

3 / 13 / 172 / 25 / 20

A few months ago, I posted the before and after pictures of my sewing + craft space. It was a space that severely needed some organization. Since requesting my husband to create some built ins for my sewing space would take a little too much time right now, we turned to the next best place.

How to Sew a Half Square Triangle

3 / 6 / 173 / 5 / 17

Just recently, I set out on a quest to get back to the basics of sewing and quilting. I was having some trouble with points & seams lining up, and I wasn’t improving. My first task was perfecting my quarter inch seam allowance, but that is a story for another day. 🙂 (This pillow cover… Read More

What kind of Thread should I use?

2 / 28 / 17

Many of you know I run a very small Etsy Shop. I enjoy it. It’s been fun. I make and sell at the pace that is needed for my time of life right now. It’s all very slow and sporadic, but for my time of life right now, it works great. Amidst attempting to narrow… Read More

How I Tripled my Blog Hits in One Month

2 / 22 / 172 / 22 / 17

Friends, I have in no means ‘made it big’ in the blogging world, but I have found the balance right now of striving for success and having fun. We all have different goals in mind and different definitions of success for our blogs. If some of your goals are: 1. Seeing growth. 2. Reader engagement.… Read More

Miles Luke

2 / 20 / 172 / 19 / 17

Life on the blog has been a bit quiet, and right now, it’s good to be spending my time elsewhere. Most of my day is spent holding and feeding our newest little bundle. Miles Luke joined our family early last week, and he is absolutely precious! The top picture is little Miles laying on a… Read More

Fabric Inspiration: A Scrappy and Bright Fabric Combination

2 / 6 / 172 / 5 / 17

Here’s a bit of fabric inspiration for my low volume (ish) type sewing friends. I posted this picture last week on Instagram. I kind of laughed because we are due with our third little boy any day now, yet I continue to find myself adding bits of pink to my fabric stash. 🙂 These Dresden… Read More

Sewing a Baby Blanket with Cotton Fabric, Wool Batting, & Double Gauze

2 / 3 / 172 / 3 / 17

I did a little experiment last week. And I experimented on a baby gift for a friend. I’m not convinced that was a good idea, but I think it turned out okay. 🙂 (Pink & Gold Wonderland fabric  |   Bambino Double Gauze  |  Wool Batting) I have never used wool batting. I was always convinced… Read More

How to Sew a Scrappy Hexagon Block for Quilting

1 / 30 / 174 / 13 / 20

This is a major scrapbuster for fabric! Scrappy hexagons are a bit tedious, but they will use up your smallest scraps and strips that you can’t bear to just throw away. Plus, how great is it to have a sewing project you can work on while sitting with the family? I really enjoy have a… Read More
