Househunting socks and many other updates.
Ok, I’m just going to come out and say it – we found a house! We closed this week and move in early August. I finished these socks right after we found out our offer was accepted and I’ve been holding on to them for good luck ever since. I’m so pleased with that contrast…

Bias tape is a lesson you never truly learn.
Since I’ve had the extreme good fortune to be able to work from home since March of last year, my wardrobe needs have drastically changed. I went from dressing business casual 80% of the time to dressing zoom casual at every moment. For me, this means jeans, wool socks, and some sort of video call…

Scraptastic.
I have long admired the scrappy look. I love a bit of whimsy and bright, fun colors and patterns, but have been a little nervous about trying to pull it off myself. Enter the Homespun Quilt. A dear friend invited me to join her in the quilt-along and so I spent some time looking at…

Big news.

Heavens to Betsy.
I have a confession to make: I’ve been hoarding some fabric. Shocker, I know. In particular, I’ve been squirreling away my Liberty stash waiting for the day to come. You know the day. The when I’m A Better Sewist. The day when I find The Perfect Project. Well, that day has yet to arrive and…

A little of this, a little of that.
Happy Sunday to you! I’ve been crafting up a little storm around here so let’s jump right in! First things first, I finished up this little cutie last weekend. This is the Thimble Basket pattern from the book Rainy Day Sewing by Amy Sinibaldi and Kristyne Czepuryk. The pattern is well written and pretty easy…

Bunnies & Berries.
Not much intro today – I finished it! Year of minis #2 is all done – Bunnies & Berries Mini Quilt: I’m pretty darned proud of this one. This has been a idea that’s been kicking around in my head for years. I fell in love with soft colors and sweet bunnies in the feature…

In no particular order.
Sometimes I struggle with writing a blog post. A crafty blog is an interesting thing – sometimes I have a finished object to talk about, sometimes I have a theme or idea that has been popping up in my making, and then, sometimes not. Sometimes I’m just putiting time into projects and there’s no take…

Well, the day has come! I have a shiny and bright new FO and I am proud. I won’t bury the lead here, my Granny Stripe Blanket is finished! Over a year in the making, with a few pauses here and there but it’s all done. And believe me… it’s gigantic! It hangs down on…
