My husband took the day off today (lucky for us) and helped get the new Baby Lock Embroidery Professional PLUS (BMP9) out of the box and set up! You know, I’ve seen lots of sewing machines introduced over the past 15 years, and every time I’m just a bit of a skeptic. I always want [...]

It’s ExtraordinAir!!
Just when you thought the Baby Lock people had uncovered everything about serger technology, they come up with even more to make serging (& sewing) more exciting and easier, too.

Fabric Alert
I’m pleased to say we will have nearly the complete collection of Hoodie’s Spring Fever by next week. The green colorway was so much fun, I had to order it in the black colorway, too. (You know how I love black fabrics!) I see this fabric as usable for quilts, totes, garments, home dec and [...]

Trust Me
Pam came by to take a look at the little vest I made using the Natty Vest pattern and thought it was so cute. She said she never thought it would be so cute from the packaging. I told her to “trust me”…sometimes I just have a feeling about a pattern. And, most of the [...]

More Fabric Fun
I can’t sew this new fabric quickly enough! There are so many ideas floating through my head. I see a toddler dress from the pastel pink zebra stripe, a little girl’s spring dress out of the silver coneflower fabric, including a smocking insert of the silver marble, and purses and tote bags galore out of [...]
