Lesson Learned

I'm so frustrated with myself this week. I went to a local thrift store. There was a great wool coat with short sleeves for about seven dollars. I didn't get it because the buttons were tight and so were the sleeves; however when I was at the fabric store the next day I found and bought great new closures, unfortunately when I returned to the thrift store the coat was no were to be found. I should have known better. I'm sure my daughter could have worn it for years if I couldn't figure out how to make it fit me better. Lesson learned. Don't pass up on a great find. So now now I'm on the hunt for fabric...I'll make my own.

Longing to Sew

I've had a huge desire to sew lately. I don't have a sewing area set up in the new house as of yet, but I do have my portable sewing machine with me. I bought some great fabrics sew sew a couple of aprons, knowing they would be fast gratification; however, Halloween costumes have prevailed. I'm half way done on the first one (I have three to four, depending on if my sister still needs help!). Pictures to follow....Happy Sewing!

An Unintentional Break

I'm not sure why I haven't written in so long. When I realized it had been a while, I thought maybe I should start over...and then I waited even longer. Much has been happening...I feel I will be returning soon. Lots of Love.
