I am sooooo not thinking about FAll and/or Winter yet. Good Gosh, it is so hot around here that I keep thinking I need to still be making shorts and tops! So as always, when Pantone puts out their color reports I llike to link to them here. PANTONE_Fashion_Color_Report_Fall_2010 I just find them so interesting… Continue reading Pantone Fashion Color Report for Fall 2010
Alright, Mr. Cutline is out Miss Coraline is in.
Apparently I haven't been listening to WordPress's announcements lately. They have transitioned all the blogs that use the Cutline template over to a new template called Coraline. Forgive me if you have absolutely no idea of what I'm talking about...it's a little bit of the behind the scenes speak. In a nut shell, the template… Continue reading Alright, Mr. Cutline is out Miss Coraline is in.
Repurpose Some Wood for Ruler Storage!
When I am overwhelmed with so many things going on and a seemingly endless stream of ideas going on in my head I like to make a quickie list of things to do. I've learned over the years that it is better to keep a 'To Do' list short, with no more than 5 items on… Continue reading Repurpose Some Wood for Ruler Storage!
What happened? Dude, where’s my blog?
If you just happened to notice this, my blog has up and gone whacko on me. Looks like the culprit is someone over at WordPress playing a really bad joke on me. My template up and walked away and was suplanted by a new template thuse throwing all of my data into a swash pool.… Continue reading What happened? Dude, where’s my blog?
Hmmm…what to do what to do…
I just got home from a very long early morning and have gone into the sewing room and can't think about where in the world should I go next with my projects. The wake up alarm was 4:00am but my sub-conscious mind couldn't sleep past 3:00am so I tossed and turned for a good 40… Continue reading Hmmm…what to do what to do…
Some Picks from Mom’s Sewing Room
Here are some picks from Mom's sewing room. She has quite a collection of Stretch & Sew Patterns, it was one of her favorites when I was growing up and she has given me several over the years. When we lived in Virginia there was a Stretch & Sew shop in the area and we… Continue reading Some Picks from Mom’s Sewing Room
California Trip Stash – #4 Jane’s Fabrique in La Jolla Picks
I'm still not finished, but this is the last of the FABRICS I picked up on my California trip. These are the three pieces from Jane's Fabrique in La Jolla. Two are those Italian Cotton Shirtings and the White Cotton with Black Re-mbroidery -- I think it's a voile but not quite sure. They look… Continue reading California Trip Stash – #4 Jane’s Fabrique in La Jolla Picks
California Trip Stash – #3 The Rest of the Fashion District Take and a Coincidence Tale
Did you notice in my last entry no words showed up? Hmmmm. You know, frankly, on a side track note, I just found out my dog Einstein was also the name of the dog in Dean Koontz's novel The Watchers, I know...I swear! Di do di do di do (insert Twilight Zone music here). There's… Continue reading California Trip Stash – #3 The Rest of the Fashion District Take and a Coincidence Tale
California Trip Stash – #2 What I picked up at FIDM
California Trip Stash – #1 Quilting Cottons
Here is a photo of all the quilting cottons I picked up while in California. Usually when I shop for quilting fabrics I try to only look for fabrics that will fill a void in my palette of colors. In this case it is medium blues, black backgrounds and neutrals. I first look in the… Continue reading California Trip Stash – #1 Quilting Cottons
