Sneaky Fabric Peeky
Timeless Treasures asked if I would mind posting a little preview of my collection.........Seriously guys? I've been DYING to post about it for EONS! Of course I don't mind! ^_^ I hope you like, I've been almost sick about about it hoping people like it, so be gentle guys. I bruise easily. ^...
Don't try to pin, and only worry about the edges lining up for the 1/2 inch or sew in front of your zipper foot...

Patchwork Theory
In Theory... This should work. In practice, it's a curved piecing nightmare that refuses to lay flat. So, for those of you more experienced than me, any ideas?
The applique is great, I love how it looks on the bags!

happenings
Hi there! I promise that I didn't fall off the face of the earth, I've just been swamped with boring work stuff (the day job). All last week I was in a class learning a new software, so by the end of the day my brain was fried. Once I made it home in the evening (later than usual) all I cou...

Hello? Anyone here?
Ok. Well. So consistency isn't my strong suit. Obviously. So I'm not going to start this post with a declaration that I'm going to blog more consistently. We all know what happens with that sort of thing. But I have really missed blogging and connecting, and so here I am again. The end. Yesterda...

Grandmother's flower garden...
That's the name of this patchwork quilt pattern. I have always wanted one, I've seen gorgeous take your breath away vintage ones...all way to expensive for my budget. So I set out to make my baby daughter one for her big girl bed. 3 years ago. It's really the most labor intensive project I've ev...

My first ever video tutorial!!
I am over-the-top excited to share my first video tutorial with you guys (over-the-top excited for me means that there was an awful lot of finger twinkling going on in this puppy)!!! I did my very best to keep this as short as I could (if you wanna call 14 minutes and 54 seconds short...)... ...

Just a few new things....
Hello friends, thought I'd pop in and show you some new purses I've made over the past few days. I know that these fabrics are totally familiar, but I just got them (owing to my self-imposed fabric buying moratorium of 2009) so I was totally thrilled that some of my faves from last season were s...
OMG...great story, and what a great little couple! SO cute!

Adventures of Petey the Sock Dog
2 years ago I created This Post about how Petey the sock dog came to be. I made him from the book Sock & Glove (which is an amazing and fun book if you don't yet have it). Then I posted about how I traumatized the boy Petey has been seriously loved by my little boy for the last two years. ...

Oh yes he did.
It's mine! Really, it was meant to be. The painting also shows my beautiful diamond engagement ring, which I lost a couple of weeks ago, right in the middle of Julie painting it. Sigh. But it makes me happy everytime I look up on my wall and see the painting. I am so touched by it, and love my s...

I'm still in awe over this beautiful painting by my friend Julie Beck. Her paintings are technically impressive, aesthetically unique and beautiful, and sometimes haunting. This is her first painting of 2010, and I am so honored to have played a part in it. Here is her painting: And here is ...

happy 2010!
We got snow! That's a big deal here in Portland. The girls ran outside and built a snowman and then the middle child dramatically watched it melt (she pulled up a chair and took some photos) over the next two days. That snowman is wearing one of my two finished crocheted projects ever. I lov...

A new year, a new blog. Well not really technically new, but new in the sense that I am going to make a concerted effort to actually do some consistent posting. But there is a good reason for my long blogging lapse. Insanity. Because you'd have to be insane to do 21 days of shows in one season. ...

Salad Days and Salad Dressing
Loads of grown-up work to be getting on with now that we are back. Slowly ploughing through it. Thanks so much for your nice hello emails :) I hear that (in the UK) July has been pants for the weather, I know I shouldn't be surprised. Ah well. Here are a few more holiday snaps (that will be ...

underfed horses
Last night I caught the local news. It's not a regular thing. One of the stories was about horses being neglected, underfed. They cite our drought as possibly contributing to neglect because there's little grass. And actually feeding horses grain costs money; could be too much for some folks to...
