My Sewing Journey
I love when I discover new fabrics and companies, especially a small business like Sew Dynamic Fabrics that is a great source for recycled fabrics! I actually knew very little about fabrics made with recycled fibers before becoming a customer at Sew Dynamic Fabrics last Fall. Now, I've done some research, have felt all the bases (thanks...

Hello! I've been on the hunt for the best shorts pattern and just can't quite find what I'm looking for.

He dressed as a pirate for Halloween and loves his treasure box and pirate money from his great grandparents. So, when Raspberry Creek Fabrics began printing a few pirate prints, I knew I needed to snag one... Continue Reading →
One of my sewing goals for 2020 is to start working through my fabric stash. I have so much fabric that I've been saving for the "perfect project", but now realize that if I absolutely need something I can always order more fabric. This has happened especially with larger scrap pieces. I had this mentality... Continue Reading →
