Here I go again, attempting to keep a blog. After months and months of avoiding learning this fabulous communication, I'm determined to LEARN TO DO THIS!! Are you patient enough to come along w/ me?
In the mean time, I've been "sew" busy sewing, and have though of several things to share with new girls (or guys, actually) to the sewing craze.
First of all today, don't be afraid to add to your stash of fabric. I used to be so careful to only get fabric I needed or wanted to use immediately. I have come to realize that if I happen onto a fabric that I love, I buy it NOW, or it will be gone. There is just so much wonderful fabric out there, and fabric stores just can carry a smidgen of it, so they constantly rotate. Thus, he (she) who hesitates is lost. OR if you wait, you pay.
My sewing room closet is filled with fabric and projects, and do I hesitate to make a new purchase of fabric that I love, love, love?? Of course not, as it will not be in that spot again in about a month.
PLEASE!! I'm not saying over-spend. Just be sure if you love it, you find a way to get at least a little bit (like a fat quarter, or maybe an eighth of a yard).
That's all for now. I'm going to learn to post pictures next, because I want to show you a little trick for making all kinds of double-sided things, like pillows, and be happy with the shape of it.
Until then, I hear a fabric store calling my name!!

Welcome Baaaack! I do solemnly swear to ALWAYS buy fabric that I love when I see it. From now on. That will be hard, but I'll really try!
